EXCLUSIVE: Marty Krofft Talks Bigfoot and Wildboy and H.R. Pufnstuf


Legendary producers Sid and Marty Krofft brought their unique puppetry to Saturday morning television in the late sixties, creating one iconic series after another. They became a beloved institution in the process, capturing the hearts and minds of children and adults alike with their whimsical worlds of wonder.

For a while, Rhino was releasing entire series DVD box sets for all of their titles, including H.R. Pufnstuf, Sigmund and the Sea Monsters, Land of the Lost, Lidsville, and The Bugaloos. But these sets have since gone out of print, and are no longer available. Well, don't fret! As Vivendi Entertainment has secured the Krofft catalogue, and are re-mastering each episode under the supervision of the Krofft brothers themselves for future releases.On January 18th, H.R. Pufnstuf: The Complete Series DVD returns like you've never seen it before, packed with all new special features and great new artwork. Leading up to this fantastical, magical release, Vivendi has also unleashed an amazing compilation disc titled Sid and Marty Krofft's Greatest Saturday Morning Hits, which is available in stores now. The great thing about this particular DVD is that it offers remastered, never-before-available episodes of Electra Woman and Dyna Girl and Bigfoot and Wildboy.We recently caught up with Marty Krofft to chat with him about the future of Krofft, including all of the home video releases that are planned for the near future, as well as the big screen adaptations he is planning for such iconic characters as the dragon mayor H.R. Pufnstuff and the beach dwelling Sigmund and the Sea Monsters.
