Just the title alone

Skippy Dies - I hoped it was *that* Skippy but sadly, no!

What Skippy were you hoping? The only Skippy I know of was a long time ago in a show called Family Ties.

No, this one:


Every Australian cringes when that bloody music starts!

OMG it's the Australian answer to Flipper! That's hilarious!

Or perhaps Lassie. Is Skippy a helper kangaroo? Does he let the kid know when someone is trapped down a well?

Oh, you have no frakking idea - I am fairly sure there is one where Skippy pilots a crashing helicopter to a safe landing!

This gives you some idea of the silliness:

Oh my god, the Kangaroo joins a band? That's just so bad. What were they thinking?

I did warn you! I'm just disappointed that I couldn't find the helicopter one.

Skippy flies a helicopter?

[identity profile] catalyst2.livejournal.com 2010-08-12 12:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Not just flies one but manages to pilot a crashing one into a safe landing! There is no end to the madness!

Shhhhhhhhhhh - tell no-one (or I'll tell them about Gentle Ben!)

Even I don't remember Gentle Ben. I think it's before my time.

You missed one of the great cultural experiences of the 60's:

Did Gentle Ben save people and play in a rock band too?

No, mainly growl and look fierce on cue, I seem to remember!
