If you happen to be of a certain age, you are familiar with former Sunday morning staple “Wonderama,” an unprecedented weekly interactive game show extravaganza where kids and tweens gathered en masse, often with their parents, for just plain fun and entertainment. No childhood at the time was complete without “Wonderama.”
Now, almost 40 years later, this slice of television history is back in a new one-hour syndicated version of “Wonderama” produced by Chuck Armstrong (“Community Auditions – Star of the Day”) and anchored by the Tribune Broadcast Station Network.

Wonderama
If you spent your childhood on Long Island in the 70s, then you surely remember Wonderama, an entertaining kids show that ran for decades on WNEW-TV.
Hosted by the affable Bob McAllister, it was hands-down the best thing on television on Sunday mornings and, as such, is fondly remembered to this day by millions of 70s kids.
Wonderama first debuted all the way back in 1955, a three-hour show that featured games, prizes, celebrities, group exercise and much more. In the 60s, it was also an hour-long weekday show, although that ended with the 60s. The 70s were unquestionably the golden years for this popular series.
The show had a few hosts prior, but the leisure-suit-wearing Bob McAllister is the man every 70s kid will remember. He was already a popular children’s show host (and magician) when he took over the duties on Wonderama in 1967.
Bob would remain at the helm until the series was cancelled in 1977. He would return the following year on ABC, as the host of Kids Are People Too. Unfortunately, he was replaced after the first season.
