The nightmares return!

When I was a child, I was exposed to a horrifying acid-induced television show about a kid who fell into a hat and was tormented by Charles Nelson Reilly. Nightmares ensued. So horrible was this experience that I supressed many of the specifics, including the name of the show.

Then, when my guard was down, it all came bubbling up again. I was listening to an episode of Coverville, one of my favorite podcasts, and someone mentioned the name. The horror!

So now, I'm like this guy. Make it stop! Make it stop!

Nick at Night showed some of these a few years ago. My wife and I tried to watch them, but both of us remembered having nightmares to another Sid and Marty Krofft show, Puff-n-Stuff, and we couldn't handle it. Seriously scary stuff.
Like so many TV related things, Phil said it best over at Teevee.

Kind of crazy, but I really DID have a Lidsville dream last night: I was flipping through the shows on the TiVo in our playroom, but whenever I tried to start a show, no matter how it was listed on the TiVo "Now Playing" list, it was always an episode of Lidsville. And my eldest daughter was standing there telling me about how she knew all about it and it was such a great show.

Nooooooo!!!!!!
