 A VERY interesting piece of trivia: The concept for the show actually came from Andy Kaufman with his co-writer Bob Zmuda, who dubbed it "Andy's Funhouse". It was based of Kaufman's experiences doing children's birthday parties and performing for children (the "scream the secret word" game came from Kaufman himself; he had done a similar thing as a birthday party game). But he developed lung cancer and was unable to do the show. Before Kaufman's death, Reubens got permission from Kaufman to do it himself. :bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce: Dirty Dog:  Captain Carl:  Jambi:  Cowboy Curtis:  Miss Yvonne:  Chairy:  |
