and it was the one with Bigfoot in it.

It always makes me laugh thinking about Fry wandering in the woods calling out for Bigfoot while brushing his teeth.

Anyway, as I was watching it, I suddenly had this sense of deja vu and I remembered this bizarre show from the 70's called "Bigfoot and Wildboy".

I googled around a bit to find the following quote which the narrator apparently said at the beginning of each episode:

"Out of the great Northwest comes the legendary Bigfoot who, eight years ago, saved a young child lost in the vast wilderness and raised that child until he grew up to be Wildboy..."

Here's a link to a site with a few pics of the main characters:

Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone else remembers this show?

I'm not that old. But for some reason, I keep thinking they had a TV version of Harry and the Hendersons...Did they?

Darn, this thread isn't actually about Futurama. [Wink]
