Andybern I watched this show in 1969 when my father was stationed in Bangkok and the family relocated. I didn't like it. I loved it. And I can still hum the Banana Splits theme song. The part I enjoyed a lot was the write-in letter for Dear Drooper. He would always come up with the zaniest reply. To a writer, amazed that the light from the sun travels 86,000 miles per second, he replies, "Don't forget, it's downhill all the way." To a safety conscious student driver, he replies, "The most dangerous part of the car is the nut holding the steering wheel." I still have the tape recording (monoraul audio) I made back then. This is part of my childhood and my early lessons in humor.

btdroflet38 Never mind the characters, or the animation....it was the songs that stayed in the memory even as sketchy as mine. Someone mentioned a song called 'Wait Til Tomorrow' and i thought it was the best of the bunch (no pun indeed LOL). Who sang it - and does he still perform to the present day? If he does, he must be in his early fifties by now.Okay, i changed my mind - loved the cartoons (Arabian Knights were like Shazzan, but what the heck? the action sequences were cool!) Danger Island kinda grated on me because the scripting was so bad, but the location scenes on the island were above par and heaps better than the similarly-named "Mystery Island" live-action show years later.Brian T.

Brian Washington This was a show that I truly enjoyed looking at as a child. The songs may have been corny bubblegum, but they were enjoyable. Also, the back up features (The Three Musketeers, The Arabian Knights and, of course, Danger Island) were what really made this show special. I hope that they will eventually release it on D.V.D. and that the songs will be re-released on compact disc.

gazzo-2 You don't Know how big this was back in the day...Heck I used to watch this ALL the time. Loved the Splits, the Musketeers Toons and their music. It was very funny. Haven't seen it much since but that's fine, it was meant for the 6 year old mind-set and it's in that frame of reference that it belongs.*** outta ****.
