Some bothersome half-memories from my childhood: What was the name of that outer space guy who came to Bedrock and only Fred and Barney could see him? Why did Barney's voice change in the later Flintstones episodes? Does anyone remember any interesting details about a show called "Batfink"? He was a crime-fighting bat who would constantly say "Your bullets cannot harm me. My wings are like a shield of steel!" I think one of his enemies was Hugo-a-go-go. What about Courageous Cat? The first time I knowingly heard the theme to Peter Gunn (Which was not on the Peter Gunn show. I've never seen it. Too young, I guess...) I thought "Gee...that's the theme from Courageous Cat!" Was it? And then there's this faint but persistant vision of a TV show (or maybe a portion of one) which came on in the N.Y. City area at about 4:00 pm weekdays in 1966 or so and had a man dancing on a stage wearing glasses that, instead of lenses, had two long toilet-paper-tube-like tubes... Did this really happen...? Or was there too much phis-o-hex in my bathwater? Any information about the above stuff will end years of bewonderment.
