Home of B.J., Dirty Dragon, the Blob, Mother Plumtree, the Old Professor, Wally & Weird, and a host of other hilarious characters from back in time when children's television was imaginative and fun!

(Check out my new book farther down the page!)

       

 Cartoon Town, the B.J. & Dirty Dragon Show, and The Gigglesnort Hotel!

Hello, this is Bill, and I welcome you to my personal Web site, one that I hope will bring back pleasant memories from your childhood.  Let's go back in time:

You may remember how on Cartoon Town and the B.J. & Dirty Dragon Show Postmaster Dragon would say, "There's no mail today, FIE on the mail!" and try to eat it all?  And, of course, there were the Whozit drawings, the Thumptwanger musicals, The Hokey Theater Players, The Lemon Joke Kid, and those wild serials, some of the favorites being Blast Off to Mars! , The Birth of FrankenWeird!, and Dirty Dragon Meets the Monsters!.

Then we moved to Carefree Corners and on to The Gigglesnort Hotel where the owner, old Mr. Gigglesnort, thought he was the captain of a ship.  I served as First Mate and desk clerk;  Blob became the hotel statuary; Janitor Dirty Dragon ate more coal than he put in the furnace; and Weird became, well, more weird than ever.

I hope to offer a documentary on Cartoon Town next year, but right now many of the Gigglesnort episodes are available:
