Hobo Kelly Show
HERE'S A TVparty LOOK AT

HOBO KELLY
IN REAL VIDEO FORMAT -
(:25)

Hobo KellyHobo 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).

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 photoHobo 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 KellyHobo 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".

- Lori Trudeau


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!"

- Rick S.

 

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