Brothers Sid and Marty Krofft first came to fame with their touring puppet show “Les Poupées de Paris” in the 1970s which featured topless puppets, and puppet-on-puppet sex long before Avenue Q or Team America. They later made the move to television with the trippy H.R. Pufnstuf in 1969, which they swear was not drug influenced, nor was the Donny & Marie show, which they created as well. But here at io9, we’ll always remember their wacky-ass forays into science fiction. Find out everything you wanted to know about the Krofft scifi shows of yesteryear in today’s triviagasm.

They have an interesting take on some of the show that us loyal Krofft fans might not agree with, but it is a fun article. Also, there are fun facts sprinkled throughout the article. Go on over and check it out.

Beginning with the premiere of H.R. Pufnstuf on Saturday mornings in the psychedelic ’60s throughout he dawn of the Reagan era in the ’80s, Sid and Marty Krofft mesmerized an entire generation with their extraordinary “living cartoons.”

Today, these shows are once again capturing the imagination of that generation for which surreal stories, hypnotic colors and a maddening mix of real life and master puppetry are the essence of pure entertainment.

So sit back, tune in and relive the Saturday mornings of your youth with Rhino Home Video’s release of Krofft’s most memorable shows.
