12. Marky Mapo from the 1956 TV commercial.

Strange how many of us remember that commercial when we were so young.

[Brother Buzz]

13. I was initially riffing on Squeak from Colonel Bleep, but yep, the Mapo Kid

[Kablooie]

17. Colonel Bleep was on Engineer Bill out here in LA.

Or was it QT Hush?

[Brother Buzz]

21. Colonel Bleep was on Captain Fortune in San Francisco, but...

He also featured The Wonderful World of Brother Buzz, an in house production that left a lifetime impression on me; thanks to Brother Buzz, I was practicing ecology years before they even invented the word.

The Wonderful World of Brother Buzz was later was spun-off and became its own program that started right after the that cool TV test pattern was retired for the day on Saturday mornings.

Extra points if you can name the event that woke up Colonel Bleep's other Space Deputy, Scratch, after his long, long slumber?

[Kablooie]

18. I didn't like Maypo either, just the commercial.

[soldierant]

15. I recognize the face but can't come up with a name,

and neither can Tineye. But it isn't anyone already suggested as I type this. It is from a comic strip, not a commercial, but I can't remember which one.

[Kablooie]

19. It's Marky Maypo.

From the commercial.

[Figarosmom]

20. Yeah tbe Maypo kid
