I do, but for me the only GUMBY and PoKEYS werre the 1950s and 1960s ones, before the "Jackie Gleason Strings" dinner music I grew up with hearing on these classics were stripped for a Casio instrument soundtrack to match the new shows (and because Capitol Records, who music library was tapped for the original soundtracks, as was the case with so many shows back then, Hanna Barbera and sister company Screen Gems included, wanted more money, the same story that goes with these soudntrack rights deals).

The newer ones when Gumby gets a girlfriend (this "Tara" character when he's got Goo already) just don't do anything for me.

:happyface My, what childhood memories. I used to LOVE the clay animation of GUMBY and POKEY. I had the toys, but who knows where they are now. Maybe cartoon network or TVLAND could show them once in awhile :crazy: There are a few good sites on GUMBY AND POKEY as well on the web.
