Default Talking Moose's sidekick Eric Neville passes away.

The two legged star of that great reality show "Popcorn Playhouse" has passed away.

Good Ol Eric Neville.

What is most interesting is that little show followed the demise of our society into political correctness, social control, or stinkin communism. Whatever way you like to look at it.

I recall at the same time there was a kid's show called "Shotgun" in Calgary. Who would name a kid's show "Shotgun"? I thought it was a really cool name and look how things like those two shows destroyed ol Greylynx's childhood.

I'm sad, I was on the show when I was a kid. He was a nice guy and that showed on every show he did.

Haha, I remember one little boy told Muskeg a joke, and I kid you not, this is what he said.....on tv. "What did one leg say to the other? Hey look, Shorty's growing a beard" lol

Default Got the Cake!

Was on the show about 40yrs ago for a friends birthday. I got to take the leftover cake home after as I had travelled the furthest to be on the show (1.5hr drive) Don't remember anything else about being on the show.

I was on it as well for my 7th birthday, We were living in Windfall while the Pan American West Whitecourt gas plant was being built.
I remember that my dad had to drive from there to Edmonton through a bad snowstorm and that we just made it in time for the show.
I still have the birthday card from Muskeg and Eric Neville somewhere in all my junk.
