I'm sure most of you will be well aware(if you've read the guide for the Valentine Show pilot) that the character we all know as Crazy Harry was called Crazy Donald in this special (which let's hope gets to be on Season 2 TMS set uncut)
The thought just crossed my mind do you think it was a good idea to change the name in the end? Does the name Crazy Harry have a much better ring to it?
What's in a name of course? When I was a child my mother and I used to call him Mad Harry for some reason I don't know why. I found out later as an older child watching reruns that it was crazy not mad, which technically means the same thing in the end. But I am digressing.
The name Crazy Donald could have been kept of course. The only thing that would have been drastically altered in the series is that they couldn't have had the cold opening in the Harry Belafonte episode where the guest tells Scooter he's offended because he overheard some muppets cautioning each other to stay out of his dressing room because Crazy Harry was inside it. And Scooter is blasted while he tells Mr. Belafonte that they were not talking about him.
But to get to the point finally I do like Harry better than Donald and do any of you agree or disagree?
