Hilarious House Of Frightenstein

Post by Sfpcp » Tue May 16, 2023 11:29 pm

Does anyone remember seeing The Hilarious House Of Frightenstein on Detroit TV? It might have been on Old 62 but I’m not sure? I saw it on YouTube and it seemed cute, a product of its time kind of like The Groovie Ghoulies.

The Saturday morning show was called "Groovie Goolies" from September 1970 till September 1972. The Daddy DewDrop 1971 song "Chick-A-Boom" (Richard Monda) had to change the lyrics on the cartoon!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-upR4C3 ... palomar250

It went into syndication in the US around 1973 or 1974. Don't know when or if it appeared in the Detroit / Windsor area (then-WGPR didn't sign on until 1975). I wouldn't be surprised if the old CKLW-TV 9 had aired it, especially as Frightenstein is Cancon (produced by CHCH-TV in Hamilton).

YTV (the Canadian equivalent of Nickelodeon) also reran it in the network's early years.
