Marty Krofft was a HUGE part of my childhood. Saturday mornings were for plopping down in front of the TV with a bowl of cereal and watching shows like HR Pufnstuff, Land of the Lost, The Lost Saucer, Sigmund and the Sea Monsters.......
He entertained an entire generation. He was Mr. Saturday Morning.

Thanks for everything, Marty.
