70's Local Kids Shows - Buster and Me, Uncle Floyd...

There was something about local kids shows in the 70's that just isn't there today. That is, the shows were written not just for the kids, but also the adults. Sesame Street started the trend (and abandoned it sometime in the 70s) and there were a number of great Kids Shows for more than just Kids.

There was:

Hot Fundge Sunday (Chicago)
Dudley's Diner (SF)
Buster and Me (SF)
Uncle Floyd (NY/NJ)
Charlie and Humphrey (SF)

and many others that I don't know about.

Here's a few links:

Any of you have any links to your local kids shows?
