Being a kid in the '70s, we watched a LOT of really strange TV shows on Saturday mornings. Weird and wacky stuff such as H.R. PufnStuf, Wonderbug (a dune buggy that captured crooks like the K.I.T.T. car in Knight Rider) and the Hilarious House of Frightenstein.
Did you know that the 'Hilarious House of Frightenstein' - with the Count, the Wolfman, Harvey Wallbanger and Vincent Price - was actually filmed in Hamilton ON?
Another little tidbit of Canadiana - 'You Can't Do That on Television' was filmed in Ottawa and Alanis Morrisette was a cast member for 5 episodes? In 1981, Nickelodeon began airing 'You Can't Do That on Television' and obtained very high ratings.
Not specifically related to Canada, but a new terms has emerged as the "new" name for Gift Bags....SWAG.
Did you know that SWAG is the acronym for Stuff We All Get?!
The first 100 families who buy Diaper Disco tickets, will receive a fabulous SWAG BAG including a copy of Canadian Family and a deeelish soap from Suzanne Graham for You (plus LOTS more!).
Who thought Gift Bags were only for kids?
