I posted this article with information from my webpage. I wrote it and have deliberately not copyrighted it. --Marknyc

The page was put on copyvio on the 13 Aug 2004 by Steinsky, who found it was a copy of information at [1]. Mark is asserting his ownership of the [2] site and (because he has seen the light) allowing its use under GFDL on this site. So I guess please don't put this page on copyvio again! --Tagishsimon

Earlier 'Junior Jamboree'

Somewhat confusingly, a show called Junior Jamboree first aired a few months earlier on Detroit's brand-new WWJ-TV (began broadcasting on March 4, 1947). Also a children's programming show, it was an hour long, with an entirely different cast (including magicianKarrell Fox) and also had puppets.

Fair use rationale for Image:Kfotv.gif

Image:Kfotv.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Weren't Fran and Tillstrom married, and other questions

Many fans of the show imagined that Fran and Tillstrom were married? The separate articles for these two performers are also silent on this subject. the Kuklapolitan Website says that they were not married: "Fran was married to Archie Levington. Burr never married." The article should answer this obvious question.

Why isn't the PBS revival of Kukla, Fran and Ollie, 1969-1971, mentioned?

The article uses KFO as an abbreviation of Kukla, Fran and Ollie. If there is no reliable reference for widespread usage (a fan page like the Kuklapolitan Website doesn't count), which I think does not exist, I think it should be replaced by "Kukla, Fran and Ollie" or "the program", or similar. To me, KFO implies the existence of a cult following, similar to the widespread use of SNL for Saturday Night Live. It connotes a familiarity that was not a part of the program, which always had a certain formal structure within which its plots were set. David Spector (talk) 21:56, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Link to full episode removed

I removed the only link to a full Kukla, Fran and Ollie episode because it uses Flash, which is an older technology that is no longer supported in most browsers and operating systems. It looks to me like this wonderful show is just too gentle, friendly, and ordinary for any survival into the future. David Spector (talk) 16:57, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
