I watch some of the animated pieces in the old episodes and I'm thinking, how did they come up with this stuff? To what extent do you think the psychedelic/drug culture had an influence on SS, if at all? I'm not just talking about classics like the Racecars/Spies segment that taught about numbers, but some of the others that seemed to serve no purpose other than seemingly scaring the bejeebus out of kids! What was that about? SS was a children's show, but it also seemed to be a great experimental playground for some very creative people back in the day, based on both the animation and the live action material from those early years. Today, they seem to be more rigid regarding the content of the show.
