No, the Groovie Goolies ( spelled it wrong in the last post) not Ghoulies. Most people don't remeber the Groovie Goolies at all. For some reason it is one of the things I remember from my childhood.

Woops, sorry. I haven't seen that one.

The Groovie Ghoulies makes the rounds on Boomerang. They're crime fighting monsters (Drac, Frankenstein, Wolfman) and they cart around in these car reminiscent of the car from the Munsters. Oh yeah, they're also a band and they sing a song, usually during a montage in every show.

There was also the original Monster Squad, (not sure how many people remember this one) which starred Fred Grandy and featured him as a nighttime security guard who solved crimes with the help of the monsters (think they were in a wax museum) he was assigned to watch.

Boomerang is great, I'll have to keep an eye out for it!

Don't forget Kolchak: The Night Stalker. They used to play reruns on Sci-fi, but I think it may have moved to Chiller (which I don't get).

Kolchak was great. I was so disappointed when the updated version was on and it was just crap. The Kolchak's are available for instant viewing on Netflix. I'm thinking of grabbing that LG player that streams Netflix movies when it comes out.

Um, it's on disk, btw...
(And testament to the fact that Darren "A Christmas Story Dad" McGavin never had a bad role, ever.)

And yeah, the Kolchak "remake" seemed to be born completely out of old early X-Files fans saying "It's kinda like Kolchak!", prompting them to make the remake Kinda Like X-Files...

I remember another favorite, the Halloween episode of Amazing Stories with Christopher Lloyd called Go to the Head of the Class. It was an hour long as opposed to the regular 30 minute episodes they normally showed. I have it on laserdisc along with Family Dog (flip side), the episode directed by Brad Bird, Danny Elfman did the score and Tim Burton did some of the animation design.

Go to the Head of the Class if pretty creepy and funny too.
