Waters here from the Waters wake up call.
This morning we kicked off talking best creepy season TV
shows.
You remember Creature Features?
Creature Feature, of course!
All of those shows where they would introduce these bee movies, these campy horror movies.
In Fargo, North Dakota, we had a guy by the name of Mad Frank.
Oh, cool.
Yeah.
And when I was in college, I did my internship with Mad Frank, and I played a cab driver from the underworld who would bring the souls across the river sticks.
So I was kind of a cabbie ferryman thing.
And I was a New York cabbie, so I'd be talking like,
But I love those campy horror movies.
They were amazing.
They followed that with Son of Creature feature.
Oh, of course they did.
That used to be every sequel to every horror movie.
Son of.
It
was never daughter
of.
It was bride one time,
but... Hey, good morning.
It's kind of a dark and eerie one.
It is kind of dark and eerie, and your voice sounds kind of weird and creepy and staticky.
Well, weird.
It really is.
So I kind of like the fact that your st-
and sounding weird.
Usually I don't like that, but Creepy Week, it works just beautifully.
Well, I'm happy I kind of give off the creepy vibe.
You really do.
So let's talk TV shows.
The one that always got me as a kid was the Twilight Zone.
That, you know what?
There's
no beating the Twilight Zone.
I can still remember vividly a lot of episodes, and it's on Hulu now, and I do watch whenever I get a moment.
You know, and you can watch the really good ones.
The later seasons, it wasn't quite...
as good as the early ones because they were hour long and I don't know it was more like to teach you a lesson or something but those early ones yeah those early ones were great and creepy and
Yeah.
And I had heard that the network came to Serling and said, you know what?
We can't make this as creepy as you've been doing it.
So let's kind of calm it down a little bit and make it a little bit more watchable for whatever.
And then I think the last season, Rod Serling wasn't even a part of it.
Yeah.
I grew up in the 80s.
I remember the Friday night of those.
Then I got into the older one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Just a great show.
That's my creepy one.
Yeah, I got to stick with the monsters in the Adam family.
A couple of classics.
Did you know that Yvonne DeCarlo was worried about doing that show because she had a really good acting career?
Yeah,
you'll see her pop up every once in a while in an old movie.
Yeah, she was acting cast as the mother of Bonanza.
Oh, really?
But then they decided to cut that out.
I can't imagine
her being the mother on Bonanza.
I know.
You know what I think they should have done?
I think they should have taken the cast of the Munsters and then cast them in the TV show MASH and they could have had Munster MASH.
That's, that's the good, which sounds like a very good song to play.
Monster Mash.
You
know, we should, we
should play Monster Mash with some clips of the Monsters and Mash.
I'll play the original today and I'll play, I'll play the Monsters Mash version later this week.
About to.
Alright, after a day.
Mr. Likewaters, the best damn show in Eastern America.
Thank you for using the word damn because it's a creepy season and thank you.
You're welcome.
Right on.
I think you're scared as I am when it comes to Halloween scary stuff, right?
Yes, I guess I don't know, you know, how you are about it.
Back in the day, a friend of mine told me, watch our fence and make sure you're with us.
It's fine.
It's not that scary.
Yeah, I couldn't sleep for the next two weeks.
I couldn't watch that stuff.
I can't go to haunted houses.
I can't do any of that.
I do love scary.
I really
do Oh, yeah, yeah, I
watched

It was midnight I was in my basement and it was just pitch dark and I watched saw

Maybe one that's not so scary
No, I can't it freaks me out.

Yeah,

That's you know, that's a creepy show because
their their creeps they're funny but the whole family's a horror show.
You

now.

well of course I'm there
to keep
her safe so
that's why she loves
it that's right that's right she doesn't realize I'd be no good if a monster was coming at us I'd be no good
You know, that monster would plow right through both of us.
But hey, it comforts her, so I'm there.
Well, you got the best of both worlds.
