Can you help me remember the name of a show - there was an African American man (or perhaps he was Canadian) and a large dog puppet. The dog was white and had long hair and floppy ears. Sometimes, the man would dress up as a Canadian Mountie from the Yukon. I can't remember for the life of me the name of this show! They also got lots of letters, if I recall.

Hodge Podge Lodge, just because of the name.

Mine is Zoom. I remember the kids doing this funky swinging thing with their arms and of course, ubbie dubbie? the language the Zoom kids spoke on the show. There was another show, I think it was from the 70's, set in a town, everyone spoke spanish and english and there was a guy dressed in a lion costume. The only other thing I can remember was a ferris wheel in the opening credits.

Does anyone remember a mysterious PBS show about some kids in a dark warehouse-like room that had a robot typewriter and screen (or something like that) and they would get visited by weird characters. I recall a guy in a turban (perhaps a genie) in one episode. It was such an unusual show and I was like 7 or 8 that the images just got stuck in my head all these years.

What was the show that was set in a train station? I was thinking, Imagination Station, but I am pretty sure that is wrong. It was around the same time as Reading Rainbow, etc. Please help me out!!!
