Marty Krofft, the Brains Behind a Kids TV Empire, Dies at 86

He and puppeteer brother Sid partnered on 'The Banana Splits Adventure
Hour,' 'H.R. Pufnstuf,' 'Land of the Lost' and much more.

Marty Krofft, the savvy businessman who partnered with his older brother
Sid to amass an entertainment empire fueled by such mind-blowing kids TV
shows as The Banana Splits Adventure Hour, H.R. Pufnstuf and Land of the
Lost, died Saturday. He was 86.
...
Their four furry animal characters (Fleegle, Bingo, Drooper and Snorky),
members of a rock band, were an instant hit on the Saturday morning show,
which ran from Sept. 7, 1968, to Sept. 5, 1970 (and in near-perpetuity in
reruns since then).

H.R. Coffinstiff.

Also, it's Fleegle, Bingo, Drooper, and SNORK, not Snorky.

Indeed! And they also neglected the serial comma.

(Which Steven was kind enough to correct).

Depending on one's thoughts about afterlife, he may really be headed to Danger Island.
