🎄 80s Retroblast: Remember Pinocchio’s Christmas (ABC, 1980)? Rankin/Bass gave us a non-Disney Pinocchio in full Animagic glory. AND it was Todd Porter’s national TV debut before he became Ham on Whiz Kids. A weird, wonderful holiday deep cut! 🪵✨🎁
#OnThisDay in 1980, Rankin/Bass’ Pinocchio’s Christmas premiered on ABC! A non-Disney take on Collodi’s tale featuring the national TV debut of Todd Porter (later “Ham” on Whiz Kids). 🎄
Pinocchio faces his first Christmas, the Fox & Cat, a puppet show, and a lesson about the real meaning of giving.

I've been listening to The Gamersician's awesome music lately and I followed Retroblast to Bluesky when Pat left Dead Bird. Longtime listener at this point. Bring the two together (as we've already noticed fir a few episodes already) and you know it's gonna be great.
