I remember this TV special originally airing on The Disney Channel back in 1988. I got this on DVD for my 40th Birthday! The disc and the sleeve were signed by Ronn.
OH MY GOD thank you SO much for uploading this. My mother had taped this for me when I was a little kid, and I watched it a million times. You have no clue how much this video meant to me! One day, when I was a teenager, I was absent-mindedly humming a song, and I realized it was the double-version of row-row-row your boat. I realized that I had memorized it. It was just one of those things that lodged itself into my brain. Wild.
I remember seeing this on Disney Channel as well (was a teenager, but thought it was hilarious). Wish I still had the tape it was on since I actually still own a VCR!
So talented in so many ways! It really gets me how animated his puppets are, yet Ronn remains awkward and unattached to the music. Even though he seems a bit scripted, and let's us know it is all an act, his puppets have such good comedic timing, like they are completely off the cuff.
Ronn Lucas! We who's in charge here on VHS but its SO old and its dying. Not to mention my VHS player is down. I've been looking for THIS VERSION for EVER! Thanks for the upload!
OMG I BEEN THINKING ABOUT THIS GUY SINCE I BEEN WATCHING JEFF DUNHAM VIDS.. i kept saying to myself. "I remember this one guy that had buffalo billy and I think a turtle named george, but I can't remember the guy's name" I saw this long time ago and I'm glad to see it again..thanks so much..wow.. memories..
i have been waiting about 15 years to see this again. My little bro who was 5 at the time decided he wanted some rugrats and barney so this was taped over
i have somewhere where they were on with Johnny Carson I think mid 1980's. Plus I remember this special!!! I was so young when this came out! 2:57 I still rolf!!
He's great and so is Ron! LOL loved the footage. A loyal patron/request asked me to react to this so did. It's going live tomorrow. Stopping by to show love.
