Good ol'e Skipper Chuck. I always wanted to be on that show. Did you feel betrayed as I did when he sold out, took up residence at Century Village and started recruiting village people?

I recall seeing Scrubby and a group called the Mod Bods at a shopping center opening in SW Ft. Laud. Must have been 1969 or so. Don't think Skipper Chuck was there. The girls in the band were hot - but i was 14 at the time and it didn't take much....

Yep - remember the name but not much else about the show. The one I can recall the best was the Jumpin' Jack 4 o'clock show that was on for a few years when I was older...

It was first called "Popeye Playhouse", and then "The Skipper Chuck Show"  Oh, I loved that show.  Remember 'Scrubby'?

I can't believe how long this thread has gone on. When I was a kid, we used to visit my uncle who lived in Hollywood, Fla. The Skipper Chuck show was on, and I loved it! Didn't someone play the banjo?

I just saw the above post "Banjo Billy's Funhouse"
but somehow I think it was some of the same people.  Oldtimers disease.

Captain Jack triggered one of my memories:

I think it was actually Jack Metzger.  I met him many years later.  I think it was on channel 10 in Miami.  Sort of like the Skipper Chuck show.  I can't find anything about the show on Google.

I usually watched WTVJ, channel 4 back then.  I remember another Miami-Based show about a forest ranger.  Brought you by Coral Gables Federal.  A guy who later became a city leader in Coral Gables was the host.  The rest is lost in the memory cells.

And who could forget Flipper, flimmed right here in our back yards.

Wonder where Skipper Chuck is today?

Maybe Ranger Bob? with Reddy Kilowat? The electricity Figure?  My best friends brother was "Buds" stand in double for the show Flipper.
