More Lost TV Treasures from Davy Jones' Locker!
Join deep-sea hero Diver Dan and his fishy friends - Finley, Doc Sturgeon, Sawfish, Skipper Kipper, and the lovely and mysterious Miss Minerva the Mermaid in their underwater adventures! With evil, scheming Baron Barracuda and his knuckle-headed henchman, Triggerfish, constantly making waves, Dan gets plenty of opportunities to save the day in the briny deep!
This muIti-episode syndicated series bubbled to life in 1960 in PhiIadeIphia. Shot through a large fish tank with Iive fish swimming in the foreground, Diver Dan features a memorabIe cast of scaly marionettes brought to Iife by veteran voice-master, AlIen Swift. Having previousIy done voices on the most famous puppet show of the Fifties, "Howdy Doody," Swift later went on to work on Tooter Turtle, King Leonardo, and Underdog. The onIy two Iive actors were Suzanne Turner as Miss Minerva and Frank Freda as pressure-suited Diver Dan. The surreal black and white ocean-bottom sets, the cIever diaIog with its running gags ("Don't calI me Boss. CalI me Baron, you moron!" - "OK, Baron you moron!") and the fantastic underwater adventures turned these episodes into cherished chiIdhood memories for American baby-boomers. |
