Extra Fun Quotes!

"Imagine how great it would be if I had a half hour [TV show] each week!  What I was hoping was that Buckshot would be sold and 'Uncle Andy's Fun House' would be such a popular segment it would become its own half-hour show.  But ABC's already vetoed that.  They're so stupid!  That would be the biggest show on TV!  Can you imagine all these people in our generation who grew up with Winky Dink and all that, all of them buying the magic screen and magic crayons, the magic decoder ring; all of them calling their friends, gathering 'round the screen, wondering what surprises will they come up with this week?  It would be like TV used to be, like it could be now!  Debra Jo could be our Princess Summerfall Winterspring, or maybe we'd have a different Playmate every week.  We'd have more guests; we'd develop the characters of my parents -- it would be great! A late-night program like that?  Great!  See?  And that's just one kind of show I would have.  But the networks -- they're just not open-minded."

  - Andy Kaufman speaking to Tom Nolan as published in Panorama: The Television Magazine, April, 1981.  p. 88.

 

"I would have loved to recreate the Howdy Doody show.  This time, no Peanut Gallery, just me and Howdy and the other puppets."

  - Andy Kaufman to Bob Zmuda as published in Andy Kaufman Revealed, p. 264.
