Gimme Gimme What The Hell?!
I was poking around at Amoeba today in San Francisco and came across a bootleg DVD-R of Kure Kure Takora, usually translated as Gimme Gimme Octopus, a Japanese children's television show from the late-'60s featuring an octopus, a peanut, a walrus/dinosaur hybrid, and many more odd costume animals. It's like Eiji Tsubaraya and the Krofft brothers took DMT together and their collective hallucinations were reliazed for Japanese children.
Yes, it's that good.
See for yourself:
What's with the mouth?

And what's with the lid being the bomb instead of the clock? Seriously I think I lost a few brain cells watching that one. But it was hilariously Japanese. :)
