In recent years I've sung it (usually in the presence of llamas), and my younger friends have no idea what I'm talking (err... singing) about.
I had to watch the video for about 3 seconds to remember what the Llama Song was. All I can think now is that that footage must have been HELL to shoot, remembering someone or other's dictum about working with animals or small children---this clip has both, and one of the world's most ornery animals to boot.
And I remember when Mr. Hooper died... I remember my mom sitting down with me and my sister and having a very serious conversation with us about it before we could watch the show. Ohhh, Mr. Hooper...
This I still remember. It affected me greatly (no helpful parents to guide me through it for me) and for the longest time I would wonder "what would happen if Actor X died" about my favorite TV shows.
