My late friend Jim Dukas was the original voice of Count Chocula.

That’s really cool!


ALMOST too cool for this thread. smile


Some of you might remember Jim as the disgusting councilman Davis in THE DETECTIVE with Sinatra (IMDB has him listed as the medical examiner [actually played by Norman Rose] - fixing that now!).

Sadly no. The video I watched reminded me of the Monster Cereal brand and it was already passed their annual production date. I couldn't find anything in the stores. But now I know to look out for them next September. As I mentioned I did get the Frankenberry and Count Chocula action figures though! I'm such a nerd.

My nearest Wal-Mart has a discount shelf and they are on that shelf. Some stores have a display place for discount items. Look around and see if your store has one -- you may find them. Also try Big Lots and Piggly Wiggly (if you have them). Unsold items get shifted to Piggly Wiggly and they discount them.

I didn't see them in Wal-Mart, though I don't have a Super Wal-Mart just a dinky one near me. I don't have Piggly Wiggly in my area of the country either. I tried my local grocery store chain and they didn't have them. Maybe I can find some in the Dollar Stores. I noticed the box artwork has radically changed over the years. I wish they go back to the original artwork. I'd buy the cereal just for the box art.

I always preferred Boo Berry myself. Count Chocula was a bit much for me.
