I knew this was real!

I have the vaguest recollections of this show. It was one of many shows that I saw once or twice before the station changed its lineup and I couldn't find it again.

Something sparked my memory a few years ago and two images stuck themselves in my mind: A dragon looking up at a hole in the roof of a cave and a talking crab apple tree. When I asked my brother and sister if they knew what it was, they both stared at me like I'd just ranted in French, then suggested that I was misremembering an episode of Barney.

That's one more old TV show that I can finally put a name to. Hoorah for the internet.

There was this video clip on the internet of this bull frog singing "Rhythm of the Woods" that just cracked me up every time I watched it, but it was taken off.

It seems like there was a bunch of Canadian kids puppet programs.

Anyone know of Swamp Critters? There's this song called "Lost in Blue Lagoon" which was a nice song but not enough camera shots for a puppet program since it was quite a slow song.

I've been digging around for old VHS tapes now that I have a VCR, and I've come across a tape with a few episodes of Dudley the Dragon taped off of PBS! I haven't seen the whole tape, but so far I know it has a portion of "Dudley and the Leprechaun" and "Dragons Ahoy!" I plan on getting a capture card to put these episodes online...
