Childhood


Right here, possibly the first tv show i ever remember seeing as a kid. I was born in 1972 and I can still hear the theme song to this in my head.. something about come aboard on the great space coaster or something?

No, that was the theme song to the Great Space Coaster. New Zoo Revue went something like, "It's the New Zoo Revue, comin' at you..." God, I'm a nerd.

I do remember New Zoo Review too though, man i was just a baby. Probably still in diapers.

I had nightmares as a kid, and they'd always
wake me up right around 5 a.m. I'd lay in bed
with the covers over my head for an hour,
waiting for New Zoo Review to come on. It was such
a comforting part of my childhood.

NZR was one of my favorites shows too although I can barely remember it, thankfully a station in Chicago broadcasted re-runs in the 90's.

"It's quite an unusual thing,
The animals dance and sing,
With Doug and Emmy Jo,
It becomes a different shoooow"

"It's the New Zoo Revue,
Comin' right at you,
The New Zoo Revue,
Comin' right at you!"

It's the New Zoo Revue coming right at you
Where three delightful animals
Have fun with what they do

They learn with their friend Doug
And his helper Emmy Jo
With Freddie, Charlie, Henrietta
We have fun learning what we don't know

Elegant and feminine it's Henrietta Hippo
Very wise and very smart it's Charlie the Owl
WHOOO!
Not so smart but lots of heart it's Freddie the Frog

It's the New Zoo Revue
Coming right at you
The New Zoo Revue
Comin' right at you!


It's not perfect, but it's closest I can come.
I was doing it while watching it on DVD.
