Can you name all these characters from H.R. Pufnstuf?

For this quiz, you likely can't do a little if you can't do enough.

Did H.R. Pufnstuf rescue you from less imaginative children's shows when it debuted in 1969?

Although it ran for just a season, its extremely colorful characters left a big impression on anyone who got lured into Puf's magic island.

Think you can name some of the most frequent faces you watched on this Sid and Marty Krofft classic? We bet only Seventies kids will score 10/12 or better!
  1. This young boy gets lured away in an enchanted boat:
  2. Fortunately the boy has this magic flute on hand:
  3. She's the show's central villain, who rides around on her rocket-powered Vroom Broom:
  4. These anthropomorphic trees could be found where the witch lives. What were they commonly referred to as?
  5. This scientist heads H.R. Pufnstuf's "Anti-Smog, Pollution, and Witch Committee":
  6. These guys show up to help H.R. Pufnstuf rescue the boy:
  7. This spider was Witchiepoo's henchman and occasional hairdresser:
  8. Friend to H.R. Pufnstuf and the island's resident entertainer:
  9. You couldn't always trust this peddler to be honest, but he was on the Good Guys' side:
  10. This vulture was the witch's favorite henchman and frequent co-pilot:
  11. This horse worked for the lion peddler and had a pretty straightforward name:
  12. H.R. Pufnstuf had a sister! What's her name?

9/12. I remember this show as a kid as well as Lidsville, Sigmond and the sea Monsters and the Bugaloos.

I Hope H.R. Pufnstuf and Lidsville can come to MeTV this fall!

11/12. Blew it on the trees; but, although I did have to dig through my memory, WAS from memory.

Happy 50th Birthday to Mayor H.R. Pufnstuf!

9/12; not too bad considering I have not seen the show since I originally watched it on Saturday mornings in the early 70's.

You got 9 out of 12
Oh no! The skies grew dark, the sea grew rough and the boat sailed on and on and on and on and on and on (specifically away from the late Sixties/early Seventies).
Missed #4, #8, and #9.
I'm so upset that I missed #9.
The answer was soooo OBVIOUS.

Well, one wouldn't think that they would use the word "Ludicrous" in a children's show, so you get a pass on that one. LOL

8/12. Foiled by 5, 8, 11 and 12. Not bad, considering I haven't watched an episode in at least 45 years.

9/12... "H.R. Pufnstuf, who's your friend when things are tough?..." I'm going to have that earworm in my head all day. Thanks a lot, METV.

6/12. But then, I was very young when it was on. And I'm not sure if we got the channel it was on.

9/12! "See you next week! Keep those cards and letters coming!"

PS Anyone know the alternative for the "cards and letters" line?

"I sure hope so!"
You're partly right. You also didn't say whos said what:
Jimmy {Jack Wild}: "See you next week. H.R. Pufnstuf: "I sure hope so."
Well Stephanie I didn't think I had to since the show ran on MeTV! You're right, but I chose not to show off...LOL!!!

12/12, wasn't as high as I thought I was when I watched it. Seriously though, recently read a book about The Krofft Brothers, gave a detailed story about every show.

What is the title?

Pufnstuff and Other Stuff, published in 1998. Got it at my library for 25 cents. Interestingly enough, they were both alive then and making plans for films, revivals, comebacks etc. With the exception of that terrible 'Land of the Lost ' movie, none of it came to fruitation.
