Sigmund and the Sea Monsters, 1973. 'Everybody needs friends!'
Sid & Marty Krofft’s Sigmund and the Sea Monsters ran for two seasons from September, 1973 to October, 1975. The live-action show featured Johnny Whitaker (of Family Affair) and Scott Kolden as brothers, Johnny and Scott, and Billy Barty as the costumed sea monster, Sigmund.
Kind, wimpy Sigmund was usually on the run from his mean monster family and the shows often revolved around the boys attempting to hide Sigmund from their housekeeper, the public and Sigmund’s angry kin. Catch the intro below with its sing-a-long theme song and have a happy Funshine Friday!
