What are the words to It's Howdy Dowdy Time?
Following the challenge put to the audience: (Say Kids, what time is it?) the song and audience thundered out- It"s Howdy Doody Time, It"s Howdy Doody Time, Bob Smith and Howdy, Too, say Howdy-Do to You! It was really a jingle and not a full-length song. the character had an ersatz Texan twang and it allegedly came out- Saaayy Keds- almost like the sneakers! By the way I never saw the program, for some odd reason it was banned in out house, but science fiction stuff was okay.
On TV's The Howdy Doody Show what character's only words Goodbye kids were saved for the final show?
Clarabelle the clown=== uttered the only words he ever would on screen. As a tear rolled down his cheek, he said simply, "Goodbye kids
Why did kids like to watch howdy doody?
Welll- it appealed to kids with loud costumes- puppets, jingles and the familiar opening ritual =-Say Kids, what time is it? The program was extremely child-oriented. The lead character was a child- not an adult llike Steve Canyon or Dick Tracy. They had occasional animal angles- but not animal acts per se. in my household for some reason Howdy was taboo, but science fiction cartoons, with some supervision, were okay, as were things such as (Topper) which I never could understand anyway but llike the vintage cars! Howdy Doody seems to be, but was not totally- a situation comedy- characters were three-dee sight gags- I am glad I never saw it.
When did howdy doody debut?
Howdy Doody was the lead, marionette character, ostensibly Western, of the long-lived Juvenile program hosted by ( Buffalo) Bob Smith from about l947-6l. The program was one of the few live juvenile shows that did not have a captive, professional cast like the Mickey Mouse Club. also unusual it did not at any time, feature cartoons. Howdy Doody was both a frontier greeting- from the Standard, How Do You Do? and the name of the title character, who had 48 freckles, a pseudo western get-up and checked shirt. The come on was ( Say Kids! What time is it? ) and Kids was slurred to sound something like ( Saay, Keds- a well-known brand of sneakers. then they would immediately segway into the popular theme song. For some odd reason Howdy Doody (not normally hyphenated) was banned in out household when I was a kid- science fiction shows were okay and such things as (Topper) I liked the vintage cars- but not Howdy. To this day I wonder why.
On the old TV show Howdy Dowdy they would show old Hollywood silent films Wasn't one of the old time actors always referred to as Hilda Honiwinklea made up name to make the kids laugh?
The name you states sound like a parody on Hedda Hopper who was a famous movie Gossip columnist in syndicated newspaper columns. She died in either l965 or l966 so was very much alive when Howdy Doody was current. (Howdy went out of circulation circa l96l-62)/ Maybe you are thinking of a more educational type of show such as the Mickey Mouse club which sometimes went into historical angles... and well they should have... with the big Disney Studio behind them. Yes, on the old Howdy Doody show, one of the old silent film divas was always identified as Hilda Hanewinkle (I am not entirely sure on the spelling).. which was most definitely a 'made up' name! There was no connection with Hedda Hopper - I don't know where that came from.

What did howdy doody live in?
The fictional town of Doodyville. It was not quite clear whether A. Howdy Doody was a child or an adult, or just what the status of Mr.Bluster was, he may have been a businessman, he was not a politician to my knowledge. ( Phineas T Bluster was his full name, more or less a Scrooge-type, but non-violent comic villain.)

Where do the kids sit on TV's Howdy Doody Time?
The studio audience ( children) sat on rows of seemingly foldable bleachers like those used in athletic events. the spectators and the seating arrangement- by inference were termed the Peanut Gallery. at times members of the audience were referred to as peanuts, do not confuse with Charles Schultz" comic strip of that name. From what I am able to understand they were spectators and not paid cast members akin to the Mousketeers of the Mickey Mouse Club. They did not have any special costume, uniform or headgear, unlike the Mouse headgear.

What does the T in Phineas T Bluster stand for from the 1950s Howdy Doody TV program?
Who knows. it was a parody on Circus magnate Phineas T. Barnum of Barnum and Bailey fame- but it is understood Mr. Bluster did not like or cater to -Kids. Some have described him as an un-reformed Scrooge type character- maybe akin to the Child-hating bad guy Dishonest John in ( Beany and Cecil)
