HOBO KELLY

Hobo would then draw the name of a lucky kid who would get the prizes for the day. It probably left the air in 74' or 75' at the latest, but I am not sure. - Efrem Sepulveda (Here is a clip from KABC's great look-back at Hobo Kelly from their Evening News program a few years ago. The station did a whole week with former LA hosts.)  Hobo
Kelly was a favorite show of many LA kids in the late 60s. I recall
her putting on her big magic glasses and "sayin HI" to all her viewers
by name - she never said HI to me though! My favorite part was the opening
theme song; H-O-B-O , K-E- double L- Y; Hobo Kelly..." as she flew over
the city. Hobo Kelly also got younger every year. - Ken Wong  Hobo
Kelly painted magic pictures that actually came to life on your
TV screen. She painted them with the help of her friend Buttercup, the
butterfly. Also, when she came to watch a cartoon, she would put her
hand and arm around a half circle and say "Cartoon Hooooooo" - and she
would refer to her television audience as "Michief Makers".

Hobo Kelly also aired in the early seventies in Portland, Oregon. LA's

Hobo
Kelly was broadcast in Los Angeles on KCOP Channel 13 every weekday
morning in the late 60s and early 70s. There was a prize giveaway involving
toys coming out of a clown's mouth (with smoke to boot).
Where's
"Froozles" which was done in the late '70s-early '80s, created
by Sally Baker and frequently featuring her as Hobo Kelly? It aired
weekdays mornings at 7 am on what was once KHJ TV-9 in Los Angeles(now
KCAL)and produced and distributed by RKO General,the station's former
owner. You can't talk about Hobo Kelly without mentioning "Froozles!"
