Very useful on the planet Delphon, where they communicate with their eyebrows
Lidsville is another weird trippy series involving a pocket dimension created/dominated by an evil magician (CNR), populated by sentient hat people.

I don't know much about this but my favorite thing that I do know is that the CNN headquarters building in Atlanta was originally a short-lived Sid and Marty Krofft indoor theme park.

At the Omni! I have stayed there twice. We saw Hulk Hogan on that huge escalator that was part of the park. It was the CNN center by then. That place was friggin huge.

My late 70s memory of Land of the Lost is that my mom hated it and would switch the channel when it came on. It was on at like noon on Saturday after I had already watched many hours of cartoons.

Erik thought that the Sleestak are his primitive ancestors and he has traveled into the past, but it turns out they are in his future and his race devolved into them.

I loved this show as a kid and remember how horrified Erik is when he discovers this.

Isn't it also shown that the Marshalls are trapped in something of a paradox? At one point they escape but in order to escape LotL they have to trigger the event that brings them there, creating a loop, that isn't exactly a loop?

I see she was in the L'il Abner movie as the pneumatic scantily clad daughter all the men want to gently caress. I would like to see that. hiĺlbilly mother - not very sexy in that, apparently.

just remembered that my mother has the soundtrack to the 1970 HR Pufnstuf movie (it's kicking around youtube if you wanna) on vinyl, from her childhood when she apparently nursed a crush on the lead. It featured Mama Cass Elliot and, um, it has this song that loving rules:

The only one that I watched with any regularity was Land of the Lost. The premise is that three family members, Rick Marshall and his teenage(?) children Will and Holly (youngest), go over a waterfall on a rafting trip and somehow go through a portal to a strange place where dinosaurs still exist.

They take up residence in a cave and most episodes involve them exploring, trying to find a way back, or some conflict with other denizens of the Land of the Lost.

There is a family of primitive ape-men, there is an advanced alien (portrayed by someone in green tights with reflective patches filmed against a greenscreen) who is also stuck there. There's Enik, who is an intelligent dinosaur-man, and also a bunch of other, stupid dinosaur-men called Sleestak who live in a place the Marshalls call the Lost City.

Erik thought that the Sleestak are his primitive ancestors and he has traveled into the past, but it turns out they are in his future and his race devolved into them.

Amongst the dinosaurs is a T-rex called Grumpy, an allosaurus called Alice, and a baby bronto/apatosaurus named Dopey.

The Land is also studded with weird pyramidal structures called pylons. You can open a door and go inside where there's a square stone table with various colored crystals and by touching the crystals in the right order you can control various things about the Land (eg, one pylon controls the weather, one controls the sun, etc). Because as the family eventually learns, the Land of the Lost is a small pocket dimension. In one episode they climb up a mountain and through a telescope they can see themselves in the distance.

Land of the Lost had some solid Sci-Fi ideas despite being a kids show. When I saw an article about an upcoming Land of the Lost film with modern Sleestak costumes I about did a fist pump. Then I saw who was starring in it and groaned.

Still haven't seen it.
