This was one of my favorite shows growing up as a teenager.
When they "normalized" it they sucked all of the charm & coolness from it.

Why do executives take everything imaginative & water it down into a puddle of bland blatherskyte (Fenton Crackshell loaned me this word)?

I hope I can find reruns of this show one day so I can remember how it was in 1990.

Maybe the Vanilla Ice backlash was one of the reasons for the excising of the Gumby cut. Hmmm..... :gary:

I don't think it got ruined, one of the best episodes is in the third season (when it was "normalized") but the writing was inconsistent. The third season does suffer from lack of Frank Lemer though (Brad Penny is a poor substitute)

You'd think so but David Silver (90210) managed to keep his for two more years!
