Back in (say) 1972 or so, I remember that Wonderama - a 3-hour long Sunday broadcast children’s variety show from NYC, hosted by Bob McAllister
had a short film contest, and broadcast the winners. Am I imagining this? I remember one of the films was about a mad scientist who wanted to “make everyone the same”. Kind of creeped out pre-teen me.
I don’t recall that but just wanted to say that as a little kid, I freaking loved Wonderama.
I got an autographed photo of Bob when he made a personal appearance at a Rickles’ hardware store.
Me too! I can still sing the “Exercise!” song. 
I was thrilled to see Bob in person at a movie theatre. The film was Journey to the Far Side of the Sun, and Bob came out to tlak to the audience and brought a guy in an astronaut suit with him. We (kids) went nuts.
Wakka-do, wakka-do, wakka-do!
I own that movie on DVD; it fascinated me as a kid and took me decades to obtain so I could watch it again.
I enjoyed Wonderama, especially the “Kids Are People Too” song.
