Someone mentioned Commander Tom! He was a guest before he got his own show I think, on Rocketship 7! Dave Thomas...or some name like that was the head of that show. Then I remember Commander Tom coming out. He always had the coolest uniform. Promo the Robot...gosh he looked like a couple of cardboard boxes and some flexy aluminum arms lol Rocketship 7 ended, then Dialing for Dollars was on. Wow, my memory isn't all that bad come to think of it...!! I grew up in Toronto, so yes, we had ALL those lovely Buffalo channels. hehe Lakawana, Cheektawana,Tonawana...gosh those names....don't know how to spell them, but remember them!

then Dialing for Dollars was on.

Oh #######, I thought you said "Bowling for Dollars" and just about laughed as I watched that stupid show too. That was a local Ontario thing, where I think people bowled with 5 pins instead of 10 to win money or something. That was really odd type of show...

I'm just a wanderer in the desert winds...

My husband is going down memory lane with this thread... he wants to know if anyone remembers:

Peter Puck

Commander Tom and Promo the Robot (he said these shows came in from Buffalo, but he loved them)

LMAO ... Peter Puck and Howie Meeker ... I think Coaches Corner must have replaced them .. darn!

My husband has dual citizenship with Canada and the US. He was born in the US but has lived in Canada for 30 years. We've been married for quite awhile. We have a 15 year old son.
