Lucky Pup (1948)
Ond of the finest of the TV puppet/marionette shows of that era.

The Lucky Pup Show theme music was from "The Nutcracker", specifically, the "Trepak". It became one of my favorite pieces of classical music. I was always amused by the constant battle between Foodini and his arch-enemy, Superhetrodini. And, of course, Foodini's constant blackmailing of Pinhead for the latter's run-up of a massive bill for hair restorer at the local drugstore. I seem to remember that Lucky Pup had a butler called Hotchkiss. The puppet shows of that era were my best entertainment, including Snarky Parker; Kukla, Fran and Ollie and others. Lucky Pup was my favorite show, because of the unique special effects, such as Foodini's habit of disappearing in a puff of ectoplasm.
