I love having satellite television, just for the simple fact that I have found that the Banana Splits show is out there, waiting for bring me back to my childhood days of running inside to watch this and then the Monkees. Truly, there is no real plot to this show other than the Splits driving around in there Banana Buggies (Dang, I want one of those!), bumping into each other, and introducing mediocre cartoons such as The Arabian Knights and The Three Musketeers. Don’t even get me started on Danger Island. . . However, you can’t help but smile and laugh whenever you here the theme song.
Here is a link to the video and the words so you can sing along!
