I can't necessarily tell you why specifically I liked certain shows in the 70s because I was 3 to 12 years old during that decade, but in general they must have hit me someplace where they stuck.
I didn't realize all these shows were Kroft . . . but I had strong opinions on them. Sigmund and the Sea Monster I couldn't stand, uggh. Who was the redheaded kid on that? Man he was like lame city-- Danny Bonaducci meets whoever played Jody on Family Affair.
But anyway, I loved Lidsville and Land of the Lost both! I remember the latter just a little bit better but wow, those shows made impressions on me. Pufnstuf I would say I liked better than Sigmund but not as much as Lidsville or Land of the Lost.
I think I had a thing about hats anyway as a kid because I remember an activity book that my mom got me and it had hats you cut out and that fascinated me too. Maybe hats are combinations of symbolic vaginas and also of masks/identities. Wow dude no wonder Lidsville is so tripped out! Remember the hat plays largely in Alice in Wonderland too -- the mad hatter. Yes I think hats must definitely mean more to us than adornment or weatherproofing.
