After spinning out of What a Cartoon!/World Premiere Toons, Dexter's Laboratory turns 30 this year.
In "Jurassic Pooch", Dexter uses the family dog's DNA to resurrect a dinosaur. Chaos, of course, follows, especially after dumb as a doorknob Dee Dee decides to take the "new pet" for a walk.....
We learned earlier today of the passing of Sid Krofft at 96. In his memory, we present the series premiere of his most infamous creation, H. R. Pufnstuf, in which Jimmy (Jack Wild, "Oliver!") and his sentient flute, Freddy, arrive at the Living Island.
The performers in costumes include ex-Mousketeer Sharon Baird, and Felix Silla (ex-The Addams Family).
From season 2 of the ABC Weekend Special:
Film legend Butterfly McQueen made a rare television appearance in "The Seven Wishes of Joanna Peabody", the season 2 opener. McQueen is a fairy godmother that the title character (Star-Shemah) sees on her television.
Garrett Morris (Saturday Night Live) co-stars, plus a cameo of Monty Hall from Let's Make a Deal.

From season 2 of Zorro (1990's series):
Don Alejandro (Henry Darrow, ex-Zorro & Son, High Chaparral) is reunited with his old unit to hunt down an outlaw. Zorro (Duncan Regehr) provides some covert assistance.
With a week to go before the deadline for tax returns, Turbo Tax decided to liven things up with a partially animated karaoke ad, currently in heavy rotation.....
Hanging on to episodes of Jana of The Jungle can be dicey.
A YouTube poster has managed to package together four episode blocks of the 1978 series, and these four were, as standalone entries, recently removed from YouTube. They are:
"The Golden Idol of The Gorgas", with Bill Woodson (Challenge of The Super Friends) as a native chief.
"Katuchi Danger".
"The Cordillera Volcano".
"The Animal Snatchers".
All but "The Cordillera Volcano" have their original title cards.
