Amazon has announced they'll be remaking that surreal 70s children's television show Sid and Marty Krofft's Sigmund and the Sea Monsters. What's more is, they'll be makiing it with the Kroffts themselves. Amazon studios Vice President told TVLine,
“Sid and Marty are geniuses, and we are honored to be working with them to bring to the world a return of what we believe is TV’s most fabulous and funniest sea creature ever.”
Does anyone remember this show? Yes, it really happened. It wasn't a dream you had after a heavy meal or a wild party. Read more and refresh your memory with a (blurry) video at io9.
This show was great. I watched it as a kid in the 70s. Where are they gonna find a giant headed ginger to play Todd.

Yea! All those Syd and Marty Krofft shows were great! Not just Sigmund, but don't forget the trippiest one that started the whole thing, HR Puffnstuff: The Lost Saucer, Far Out Space Nuts, The Land of the Lost, The Bugaloos (such a crush on Joy!), The Banana Splits, and so many more. I really hope Amazon does this justice (no cheap CG, stuff like that).

Totally remember it... along with other S&M Krofft productions... Space Nuts, Land of the Lost, Lost Saucer, Electra woman and Dyna girl, Dr Shrinker, Wonderbug, Bugaloos, etc etc. I miss those after-school afternoons of the mid-late 70s. :)
