I acquired my Rootie KAzootie collection from the shows creator Steve Carlin in 1992, you can view my visit to Carlins collection at the end of this episode. Right now I'm restoring the shows with Indiana Universities Film Archives that acquired my celluloid collection.

The show first aired locally as The Rootie Tootie Club on the New York NBC affiliate WNBT on October 14, 1950. Since the title character regularly used a magical kazoo, which he called his "Magic Kazootie," the kids began calling him "Rootie Kazootie." Following the kids' lead, the names of the show and the character quickly were changed with the December 26 show. NBC began broadcasting the show nationally on July 2, 1951.

The dog originally was named "Little Nipper" and resembled the mascot of the show's sponsor, RCA Victor, which used a Dalmatian referred to as Little Nipper, but it was rechristened when RCA Victor dropped its sponsorship. Other major sponsors included Coca-Cola and the Walter H. Johnson Candy Company, makers of Powerhouse candy bars.
