Soupy Sales Show "Pookie's Fairy Tales" RARE 1965 show

[@ricardofranciszayas]

Soupy Sales was incredibly hip. It wasn’t just a kids show. Brilliant

[@annabelkitten07]

My dad watched this religiously, and he was well into his 20s when this was on. Good comedy is good comedy!

boy oh boy, I use to LOVE this show when I was a 5 or 6 year old kid!!! lol Hobart and his wife in the wood stove use to crack me up....it was always my favorite characters. Though I loved them all!

The Jazz Tune is called Mumbles by Jazz Trumpeter Clark Terry

[@VictorySpeedway]

I did some searching on Apple Tunes, and found the full version! Clark performed the tune with Oscar Peterson, one of my all time jazz favorites. It was recorded at the Blue Note. Oh, to have been there that night...!

Smiling through tears. Missing my childhood hero (Soupy KNEW that we 13-year olds got it!), and my childhood. The mid-sixties were an incredible time to be alive / aware. Life was simpler, more peaceful. One of my most prized possessions is a very nice letter from Soupy that accompanied his autographed picture. I'm 65, too. I ran home every day at 3:30 to catch his show.

[@WayBackMachineOne]

He was also my childhood hero. Great times and I am glad we have these classic Soupy shows to watch. Please check out our playlisr for more Soupy shows. Thanks

I _never_ thought I'd ever see this episode again. My mother watched it with me and one of my younger brothers and we were all laughing. Unbelievable.

[@margiemasih982]

Soupy sales came on every Saturday ..I never missed a show.i loved this. My sister would wash her hair,put it in rollers,fix tomato soup ,grilled cheese and sit down and watch him.this was her Saturday action. Soupy sales just seemed like the happiest person

I love these old Soupy Sales Shows. I have been looking for Pookie singing Fairy Tales (If You're Young at Heart by Frank Sinatra.) I can die happy now . Brings back memories of those days. Never understood everything that Soupy did (I was Pre Teen) but I loved everybody involved. It's not for everyone, but I'm not everyone.

[@WayBackMachineOne]

Thank you for watching and you nice messsage

[@oldrmike1195]

DAVID HAUGLAND me too. My friend Al and I wore those sweaters and bow ties all of 1964. I specialized in the art of properly receiving a pie in face an keeping a that slow burn face for at least 5 minutes without wiping it off.

In the 1980s, I worked for Livent, when Garth Drabinsky ran it. He'd had polio as a child (before there was a polio vaccine), and it affected his ability to walk. Perversely, Soupy's dance is similar to Drabinsky's walk, a big step with one foot, while dragging the other foot behind. When Drabinsky walks, each step with his strong leg is so powerful, it's as though he's trying to ram his leg right through the floor.

Did Pookie call him a clumsy ass? Nothing like the great Soupy Sales Show. What was the hippos name? Soupy introduced us to Eddie Lawrence and Clark Terry, watching the show made my life growing up so much richer. Talk about exercising you imagination. The person who did Pookie was good, but I remember a different voice, growing up in Los Angeles. You have so much quality television on your channel. Great work. Thanks for making my day. No my year.
