OH MAN!!! I need help in figuring out this Saturday morning show!!!

[dhinojosa]

It was when I was 3 or 4 (around 1975 or 1976) and I don't remember much about it except:

1. It had two hippies
2. They had a cool van
3. It was a VW van
4. They would have their entire set come from the van
5. They'd have their show with music and I think muppets
6. When show was done they'd get their entire set and
put it into the van again.
7. When the credits were rolling, it would show their
van riding down a hill.

What was the name of that Saturday morning show?

1. Kick....cause I need this solved....

2. Must have been some local show

I'm the same age as you, but I do not remember such a show.

3. Hmm. In El Paso TX, we didn't have many hippies

so that's why I assumed it was national. :(

13. You might try asking here:

The Hudson Brothers turned up a few times in the archives, but nobody mentioned the microbus. I'm 10 years older than you and watched their primetime show and possibly also the Saturday morning one, but I don't remember this. On the other hand, my memory is starting to go. If a character named Chuckie Margolis and the catchphrase, "HEY MAR-GO-LIS!" in singsong mean anything to you, that would be the Hudson Brothers.

14. I don't know...

.The show has been fixed in my mind since then....
