The Altered State of Drugachusetts

3 Feb

A few weeks ago I published a post about HR Pufnstuf the classic psychedelic children TV show of the 1960s.

In the late 1990s the HBO show “MR . Show with Bob and David” featured a short parody of the show called “The Altered Sates of Drugachusetts”, and even you don’t know the original show (Pufnstuf) this is one of the funniest psychedelic parodies I’ve ever scence.
