sid and marty krofft
I rarely find myself getting excited about developments in the world of MySpace, but I'm pretty damn gleeful about the new Sid and Marty Krofft page. The Kroffts had a series of kid shows on network TV, mostly in the 1970s, which featured a lot of scifi themes and geek humor. Krofft shows contained a mix of ongoing serials like Doctor Shrinker and Land of the Lost (now being made into a movie starring Will Ferrell and those alien Sleestaks pictured above — very exciting). Now MySpace is featuring episodes of these cheesetastic treats, cut down to five minutes so you only get the best bits (including the theme songs, which will give you that "OMFG it's the 1970s for real" feeling). Check out a couple of vids below.

First Glimpse Of New, Non-CGI Sleestaks
USA Today features our first look at the new Sleestaks in the Land Of The Lost movie, now filming — and they don't look all that different from the classic Sid-And-Marty-Krofft versions. Director Brad Silberling (Lemony Snicket's A Series Of Unfortunate Events) says he fought to keep the humanoid shape of the menacing lizard people, instead of letting them be "spindly computerized beings." They look a bit cooler than the original versions, but still have the actors-in-suits thing. Click through for the full picture, plus some spoilers. More »
