Hello!

I've got a new video about Paul Lynde and his BONKERS Halloween Special, and that means you get a bonus video with some of the stories I couldn't fit into the script! In this one, I talk a bit about his cartoon projects, including Charlotte's Web and Mildew Wolf -- but mostly I'm fascinating by Hugo the Hippo, a children's cartoon (???) that was somehow a perfume commercial (???????) and that bears a striking resemblance to the disastrous Zelda CD-I game Wand of Gamelon. Plus a little story about how Paul used to take Marlon Brando's dinners.

Next week I'll have a bonus video for you about how McDonalds stole Grimace from a psychedelic children's show, which is indeed related to Paul, I promise. Until then -- thanks as always for making all these goofy videos possible! And keep sending me fun clips.

Matt

Enjoyed the bonus video, Matt, but had to give you major props for what you shared in the YouTube video. It took guts to admit that you projected your own anger and frustration onto someone else, that you have regrets, and found empathy. Thanks for opening up about that.

The whole business of Brut making movies screams "tax shelter' to me.

The text link worked great.

The style that 'Hugo the Hippo' used is very similar to a lot of Soviet animation. Don't know if you've ever seen 'The Mystery of the Third Planet'? There's a really funny and pretty queer alien.

I was not even five years old when Paul Lynde died, but even as a little one I looked up to him so much. I watched Bewitched in syndication, religiously, and Templeton was my absolute favorite character in Charlotte's Web. My parents spent a hefty amount of money to get me a copy of Charlotte's Web on VHS and I played/watched it so much that I wore it out.

Thank you! This was more personal one for me -- I sometimes joke that the whole reason I make videos about history is so I don't have to talk about myself, lol. Glad you liked it! :D

Oh my gosh I didn't know about Mystery of the Third Planet but I'm watching now and it's amazing. There definitely is a consistent style to Russian (or maybe eastern European?) animation -- very swimmy from pose to pose, and everything animated on the ones.

Zardogs! Zardogs!

I honestly believed, until watching the video, that the whole joke about Lynde in every show was that he was gay. Especially in Bewitched. Also, PLEASE talk about Xanadu.

Matt, based on your mention of Marlon Brando at the end of your Paul Lynde bonus video: have you done a video on Marlon Brando’s relationship with Wally Cox?

Paul Lynde doesn't have a huge role in it, but I must use this as a chance to plug the fever dream of a movie that is Beach Blanket Bingo to the crowd who'll get the most out of weird low budget camp artifacts. You'd think, being one of those surfer movies from the 60's that this movie would be like, romantic hijinks where a guy flirts with someone to make his girlfriend jealous so the girlfriend does her own scheme or something, and that is kind of what happens, but it also has a running plot with sky divers, a teen idol, a biker gang, a _mermaid_, Buster Keaton and a third act peril that comes right the hell out of nowhere. Lynde plays a teen idol's publicity manager and seems to have written his own lines, if the movie had a script in the first place. This podcast is a really fun rundown of the incomprehensible plot, so if you don't end up watching the movie I at least recommend the podcast. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/moviestruck-episode-12-beach-blanket-bingo-1965/id1555353000?i=1000530759095

Hugo the Hippo was a childhood favorite of mine. Finally tracked it down on DVD a while back, and I'll have to say it held up pretty well. I love the psychedelic style and the music.

I can definitely see it appealing to imaginative children (and adults who indulge in recreational substances)

I watched this video right before I went to bed around when it came out, and that night I had a dream that I was house/dog sitting for my parents, along with a very close family friend, 'Uncle' Paul Lynde. I had to talk him out of trying to drive me to work in a snow storm in his old beat up sedan.

Paul Lynde also voiced a character in the cartoon Where's Huddles.
