Jabberwocky - Children's show produced at WCVB, Boston in 1974

Segments from an episode: Joanne Sopko (not JoBeth Williams, my mistake) does a drawing exercise; a film about making things with boxes, Robert Prosky shows Dirty Frank how to make mud; the John Lennon song Imagine is illustrated with kids' drawings.

Damn straight!

[@cowboyrob2887]

What memories - wasn’t this on at 6am? I remember watching this before anyone was up

[@calvinwboaz7085]

Never knew Robert Prosky did this.

I was thinking about the water + dirt = mud episode and clicked this at-random and.. voila! Amazing. There was a lot of great psychology in these and JoBeth is a treat.

DIRTY FRANK: HE ALWAYS HAS HIS OWN OPINION AND SOMETIMES HE DRIVES THOSE JABBERWOCKY REGULARS TO DISTRACTION. I BELIEVE THAT HE’S THE ONLY PUPPET CHARACTER HERE. Kenneth Huang. 9/02/24.

Watch from 12:21. I'm so privileged to have been 12 years old in 1974

[@jeffreygriffin7248]

That's Trina!

Loved Jabberwocky as a kid! Such a cool show - how did they ever get it on the air? I'm assuming the guy toward the end of the clip talking about his work must have done opening animation - "Hammers and Blisters!" Do you have any more of these?

Dirty Frank!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

If this was in 1974, I would think alot of these kids were born in 1966, just like me.

[@lockandloadlikehell]

Was just thinking these kids look to be about 8 or so, so they would have been born in 1966

[@MjC7192]

I grew up watching this kind of remember most of them but would like to be able to access all of the episodes......

[@marcstevens8576]

I loved this show as a kid. To put it plainly, It Was Really Cool. Wish they still had it on some Cable Channel. It surely beat out Sesame Street.

Wowww

[@peck404]

I don't think that that's JoBeth Williams is it... She has a New York accent and Joe Beth was from Texas

[@spicy321]

JoBeth was in later episodes I forget this actress's name.

[@davidhinderer8147]

Joanne Sopko is her name, her characters name was Trina. @@spicy321

5:15 this seems like a magical dream world with real hints of real magic
