Sandy Becker - Soupy Sales - Fred Scott Interview - Part 3

The kid shows were piped in like utilities: you turned on the set just about any time a kid would want to watch TV, and there these guys were. For many of us, the great Sandy Becker WAS New York TV. Fred Scott read the news following his kids show; once he forgot who he was talking to and said, "This is the Channel 5 News, Uncle Fred Scott reporting."

Thank you Sandy (RIP), Soupy, and Fred. You guys were, and still are, the best of the best. You guys ARE the earliest memories of my childhood.

Seeing Sandy Becker again. Great. Great.

Like all the other comments, we all have fond memories about these people, or should I say WITH these people. They became a part of us, and helped shape us and our society at the time... I almost feel sorry for the children of today... Their role models offer little value in todays society. I wouldn't trade the time I was born for anything! Thanks for posting this ;)

It's great to reminince about the old shows but their likes will not be seen again. I remember watching Soupy Sales and he was great. Lets have a big white hand, a little growl, and White Fang hello. Thanks for sharing.

When I was four I had a HUGE crush on Sandy Becker! I especially liked his K Lastima.

Interesting how Fred Scott was talking about his real-estate business - being as WPIX announcer Ralph Lowenstein later became VP of a real-estate firm.
