D. C. Follies

Sid & Marty Krofft have be getting some press recently because of the opening of Land of the Lost. After seeing them in a magazine, I was reminded of a favorite show of mine when I was younger, D.C. Follies. Now, I was much too young to understand some of the jokes on the show since it was political statire. Plus, it probably wasn’t all that good since it was taken off the air after only one season. The reason I call it a favorite is because of the puppets. They had live actors mixed in with puppets of famous people like Ronald Reagan, Elvis, Oliver North, and Richard Nixon. I just loved the look of the puppets since they were very accurate three-dimensional caricatures of the actual people. I’m surprised I even remember this show, but if you are interested, you can check all the episodes out on Hulu.
