Dang I miss him,,,,,,!!!!!!!!!

[@dondoyle8474]

The mail man gives them treats out of fear 😂

[@mikecarter8880]

Huell was amazing. He really knew how to find interesting things everywhere around you. And he knew how to talk to him. What always amazed me is he doesn't have any real cuts or edits. He rolls camera, you see it all, he doesn't pick and choose. Miss ya Huell.

[@stefaniegarcia6219]

Aww, I love me some Huell Howser ❤

[@johnsavala8202]

I wish Huell would have visited Harbour Surf Shop on Main Street and said hello to Rich.

[@TishaJones00]

Maybe they’ve met in the afterlife now. I can imagine…

[@ELMatadiablos]

Huelle, mr Rogers & Jesus what great people

[@carlosrincon1551]

Huell and Mr Rogers were great people. However, Jesus was a bit more due to his divinity.

[@malovina]

I need an update on all of these kids and pets and families now. :) So excited to hear how their life turned out.

[@TimHunold]

The weekend we moved to SB they were filming Knight Rider down by the pier. Grandma's and the Cookie Nook were always fun too, up until curfew. I met Huell on my 21st bday on the Santa Monica pier and was living in Los Al at the time. I kept bumping into him after that. Wonderful person with childlike wonder and a warm heart.

[@MountainFisher]

I went to Seal Beach many many times, for swimming and fishing. I used to ride my bike from Norwalk to Seal Beach during the summer when I was 11 and up. Times have changed, nice to see Seal Beach hasn't much.

[@catbangs276]

Hey, I used to bike from South Gate to Seal Beach during the summers, and was one of my best memories.

[@ScotCampbellwindowpainter]

I lived in Seal Beach. I rode my bike to Norwalk when I was 10 in 1965. I moved from Norwalk Manor

[@suefanelli]

I wish you would put the original dates that these episodes aired. 😎

[@MrKellyRush]

Sue Fanelli I was just googling this

[@mikecarter8880]

Yea KCET and Chapman seem to both be incapable of adding dates to his shows. I have to figure the years based on clothing and Huells arm muscle size.

[@Folaholic]

@@mikecarter8880 just look up sheamus.. lmao. I would guess 2010

[@jonmacdonald5345]

@@mikecarter8880 💪Huell was a Beast!

[@stevedouglas7375]

As the saying goes --- "If you love what you do, you'll never work a day in your life." Huell never worked a day in his life. He absolutely loved what he did and he did it extremely well. Also, I live in Huntington Beach and one of my favorite things to do is to drive along PCH and into Seal Beach. No freeways, just the ocean and the salty air in my face. Love it!

[@stampscapes]

Used to have a lot of fun night surfing next to the pier back in the 80's and that warm water in the jetty was really nice when the waves were large enough.

[@dieterlesiak9100]

i lived in Seal Beach from 1964 to 1970 they were he years of my childhood

[@Odin33356]

[@mikes6347]

Grew up there on the boardwalk in the 70s. Sure has changed.

[@Sojourning_]

I watched this when it was first shown👍👍👍

[@Idkwhattoname12345]

such a good interview too bad he cant go back to salton sea,....2021

[@garagejapanese5012]

My routine in the 90s: Go hang out at my buddy's place on 11th Street. Skateboard down to the beach, do some tricks in the parking lot left of the pier. Skate back to 7/11, get a slurpee. Watch the short cop harass taller guys (me included). Skate down to bar, drink. Skate back to my buddy's. Say goodbye and drive back to HB.

[@TonyRios]

I'm here stuck at home and I just want to cry for not going to these places when I had a chance

[@emcity24]

I hear ya man. Feel the same way.

[@IncredulousIndividual]

?

[@malovina]

Were you able to visit some of the after Covid?

[@TonyRios]

@@malovina yes, it was great, I've been everwhere in California ever since

[@carolhubbard7762]

In 1965 or 66, there was a “store” on Main Street called Strawberry Fields. They sponsored a Love-In on the Beach. So sometimes it wasn’t always like Mayberry RFD, it was like hippie Ville next to the Naval Weapons Station. I was one of two teenagers that lived on the base.

[@tracymcgrath1192]

I traveled Boston to seal beach for years. I miss it so much. Looks the same. 🙌🏻❤️

[@m1g0t0]

I used to hang out here so much!

[@tommadigan1783]

Lived in Seal Beach for 3 years until recently....Truly a unique place

[@cecilycook5592]

Miss Seal Beach SO MUCH ... Lived in LBC, Los Al and SB in the 90s, moved in 2000 .... 😭😭😍😍

[@guslevy3506]

Huell was a true treasure…his ability to make people feel at ease was a special gift. He did get really close to the bird guy on at bench tho! Made that guy a bit nervous for a few moments…

[@garydavidderby]

I went to seal beach in 1948

[@enriqueespinosa6285]

[@KateTheSleepyTeacher]

Do you have a California Gold playlist?

[@katyhoward9674]

I live here and it’s still the same still expensive lol

[@chainsawbarbarian]

So.....were some of Huells visits arranged to boost the economies and visibility of certain places? Just wondering.... Huell rules and I love Seal Beach!

[@mikecarter8880]

From what I know no, I was watching an episode where he was a taco shop, it just seems people approach and talk to him and he is is such a good interviewer he can take anything and make it interesting.

[@chainsawbarbarian]

Mike Carter I fully agree.....but I do think he was brought to certain places to raise awareness. But him wrong with that. Yes, Huell was awesome

[@smacdiesel]

Used to be a great place until rich people moved in and started to build mini mansions and drinking establishments. The place has a totally different vibe today. Sad.

[@TishaJones00]

Agreed

[@argentumboyle249]

Where the hell is seal beach in California???? Show where the God damn place is on California map

[@jackkrinkov9273]

Sadly i have seen more homeless and blacks in Seal Beach lately.

[@katyhoward9674]

The homeless have been beat out by the cops and black people? It’s 2020 get real idiot

[@jesseclifford7365]

Enough of the bird already.
