Soupy Sales, the best children’s show host ever, who with Frank Nastasi, who played all the other characters, provided a tv half hour of ad lib mayhem each day. Here’s part of an episode from 1965.

We kids never particularly liked Soupy Sales but my father loved him!
I STILL love Soupy!
we collected Soupy Sales cards. I remember only one: Where there is a will, there are relatives.
I was in high school then and I bonded with the only other cool kid in my class over Soupy…
Yes, even though Soupy was billed as kid’s show, I think high schoolers and junior high schoolers enjoyed him the most, because the younger kids couldn’t really get all of his quick wit and humor.
