back to the 70s ~ weekend children's shows

Last weekend on Sunday morning, Joe and I ended up watching many episodes of the Little Rascals. I realize they aren't 70s shows but we were watching them as kids in the 70s. They don't show them on TV now because many see them as racist and controversial. They hold a lot of nostalgia for many people though, and they showcase some brilliant writing and incredible child actors (of all sorts of races during a time when you would never have seen non-whites on the same level or receiving the same playing time as white actors).  Oddly, between last weekend and this weekend, YouTube/Google yanked dozens and dozens of episodes and so I could only find these two, which are not as good as some of the others we found last weekend but they are still really cute and funny:

And then this morning I dug up this gem. It's a full episode of H.R. Pufinstuf. I loved loved this show, especially Freddy the Flute.
