	Iii-i-i-im-pressive. I can't see too many people cracking 25 right answers, and my hat's off to those who do. I tried a few Canadian shows that didn't make the cut (Friendly Giant, Mr Dressup, even Circle Square), and even took a shot at SNL in hopes that Toonces the Driving Cat qualified, but no dice. Tough, but fair. Nice work.

	Fun quiz! I was hoping for Polka Dot Door and Polka Dot Shorts with Bear, Bibble, Marigold too! Humpty, Dumpty and Polkaroo! Anyway, I tried a bunch of French and Canadian shows too like Bibi et Geneviève and a show with a bear called Frimousse. I think it was A la claire fontaine... Anyway, I also thought of Dudley the Dragon and now I have the song stuck in my head. I missed a few others because I couldn't remember the full title of the shows. This quiz brought back childhood memories of Saturday mornings with my little sister! Good job!

	I can't believe I forgot ALF and MST3K! Anywho, 16 answers is better than I could have hoped. One suggestion, you should consider accepting just Howdy Doody, Lamb Chop, and Sifl and Olly, rather than having to type them out with words like The and Show.

	I'd include Scorch, which was about a puppet dragon living with a single dad and his daughter (seriously) as well as Crank Yankers, which was a Comedy Central show about puppets making prank calls.

	Missing "Time for Beany" and "Space Patrol/Planet Patrol."

	Dumbo's Circus and Welcome to Pooh Corner don't count?

	untitled: I've added 'Friendly Giant', 'Mr. Dressup', and 'Circle Square'. like_a_flower: Those shows didn't really focus on puppetry. Can you point out any sources to show me otherwise? DaHumorist: Sporcle automatically filters out the word 'the' and I've lightened up on the strictness for Howdy Doody and Sifl And Olly. joek: ...but Scorch only has 3 episodes. 'Crank Yankers' added. RealityChuck: both added. Mizzet: Unless you can show me actual puppets, it's a no on both. If people in fur-suit are puppets, then I guess it's the same for someone in a bikini. It's animated clothing, right?

	@OldSpider: I checked online for information of Polka Dot Door and this is what I found: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polka_Dot_Door. I know this is Wikipedia but, every other website I found had the exact same information. On this website: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polka_Dot_Shorts, it actually mentions that the character's in Polka Dot Door (not Shorts which were people in costumes) were puppets. This is the website for Bibi et Geneviève (although it's strictly a French show): http://www.bibietgenevieve.com/. You're correct when saying that Dudley the Dragon doesn't focus primarily on puppetry; only a few characters were puppets. Mr. Dressup however (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0199249/), has many puppet friends.

	Alright, finally confirmed so I've added Polka Dot Door and Bibi Et Genevieve. Thank you! I already had Mr. Dressup. Also added: Vegetable Soup, Junior Christian Science Bible Lesson (shivers), The Adventures Of Rupert Bear, and Muffin The Mule.
