For those that haven’t picked up the, now out-of-print, box set, all 17 episodes of H. R. Pufnstuf are now available for purchase from iTunes.
The Pufnstuf movie is also available from iTunes. For those that would prefer a hard copy version of the movie, it was also released on DVD this month. While there are no extras included, the DVD contains the wide screen version of the film.
With the Land of the Lost film coming out in June 2009, it looks like more Krofft series will be remade into feature films. According to this article in Variety, feature film versions of H. R. Pufnstuf and Sigmund and the Sea Monsters are in the works.
It looks like Cox 3, the cable channel available in Orange County and Palos Verdes in California, is running their three hour Retro Saturday Morning schedule with H.R. Pufnstuf, Lidsville, the second seasons of Sigmund and the Sea Monsters and Land of the Lost, and the first season of The Krofft Supershow (with Kaptain Kool and the Kongs, Wonderbug, Dr. Shrinker, and Electra Woman & Dyna Girl).
Cox previously ran the same three hour block in 2004 and 2005. If they follow the same pattern they did before, The Bugaloos, The Lost Saucer, and Far Out Space Nuts, as well as the others seasons of Land of the Lost, Sigmund and the Sea Monsters, and the Krofft Supershow (featuring Bigfoot and Wildboy, and Magic Mongo will eventually be rotated into the line up.
