It's Howdy Doody Time,
It's Howdy Doody Time!
Bob Smith and Howdy Do
Say "Howdy Do" to you.
Let's give a rousing cheer,
Cause Howdy Doody's here.
It's time to start the show,
So kids let's go!
---------------------------
Puppet Playhouse first aired in December 1947. Howdy Doody didn't appear in the first three episodes, and initially he didn't have the familiar look, but it didn't take long to morph into The Howdy Doody Show. It ran for 13 years.

No. He's from a totally different show.

He said he was going out of town--for a month, I think. So it's up to the rest of you to carry on...

Jim! Thou shouldst be blogging at this hour. TriviaHound hath need of thee....
