I used to watch these at my grandparents house when I was a kid they had episodes on VHS... I've been checking em out again on YouTube and I recall hearing Bill Cosby had these banned from television because of racism I guess that seems plausible now :lol

Cav, I cant find a clip or episode name ,but saw this one many times.

Our Gang kids are presumed to be sick(possibly contagious ) & are ordered to be isolated.


Dr goes to see Buckwheat & he is trembling under the covers:

DR: "Son why are you trembling"?

Buckwheat: " I'se cold Doc"


Doctor pulls back the covers & Buckwheat is packed down with Ice like a cooler of fish. Doc questions Buckwheats Mother angrily:

Dr: "Why do you have this boy covered in ice?"

Buckwheats Mom: "Well Doc you don' told me to (Ice)olate him":facepalm


Stuff was routine & worse in Hollywood then.

His best film is probably the little known cult classic, Crooklyn.
