Spooktober may be over, but, since we're discontinuing our Famous First Episode feature (due to a few of them getting deleted), we'll serve a side order of the Groovie Goolies to start November.
This episode is headlined by the Bare Bones Band performing "Super Ghoul", which is the alter ego of Frankie (Howard Morris). The idea is, of course, a parody of Superman, but the color scheme is similar to that of Disney's Super Goof (Goofy, of course), who had his own comic book in the 70's, something the Goolies never got, even from Archie Comics.
NBC-Universal-Comcast, via their purchase of Dreamworks Classic, now owns the rights to the series. Maybe they'll put this on Universal Kids someday, y'think? (Let's hope)
Rating: B.
