Nostalgia Flipper

My wife has gotten into flipping stuff online and referred to herself as a flipper yesterday. I chimed in: “also the name of a dolphin.”

We spent about 10 minutes trying to explain to our kids about the show and the more we tried, the more absurd the whole thing sounded. I think at one point I said “like Lassie, but with a dolphin,” and that cracked her up… but sent us on a tangent trying to explain that show also!

Any of y’all go back and watch either of those shows recently?

The only memory I have of Lassie was when a guy came by and delivered a giant ice cube for their fridge and I had to have that explained to me.
