Well I don't know how many of you remember this great show, but I certainly do. It was one of my absolute favorites when I was growing up. I still have many of their old episodes on tape. I used to watch it on Nickelodean. It was produced by TV Ontario and it ran from 1981-1987. There were 122 episodes all together. The show was about Jeff, a mannequin, who came to life when his magic hat was placed on his head and the magic words were said - "Hocus Pocus Alamagocus." This was because of the spell that Waldo the magnificent had cast on him, but to keep the spell from being broken Jeff was not allowed to leave the store. Each night, Jodie (the display designer), Sam (the night watchman), and Muffy (the mouse) would explain a basic topic of life to Jeff. The topic would usually have something to do with the title of that episode. As Jeff learned something new so did the children watching the show.
