Bob basically said the problem with Capt. Andy's Rivertown was that the market was already saturated, and the show was late to the game. I did not know about the lawsuit; I would believe it left a sourer taste in his mouth. Excellent posting!

Also, I have an animatronic restaurant mystery of my own, this was Pizza Playhouse in Louisiana with Dippy the Dinosaur as their mascot. My mom went there when she was little, and I've been trying to find information about it so we could discuss the chain's history together, yet I don't think there's anything about Pizza Playhouse. Even Marc's Funtime Pizza Palace [retrofitted PTTs] has more information! It frustrates me when restaurant history is poorly documented. Don't even get me started on how the Jack In The Box restaurant chain tries to ignore anything made before the 90s, which REALLY bugs me given that their 1970s characters were voiced by a Disney voice actor legend: Paul Winchell, OG voice of Tigger. There's a few comics and only 3 commercials on KZitem, which I highly recommend watching, they're really charming and you can tell Paul Winchell had fun doing the voices. Sadly, much like Captain Andy, there's little information about the Jack In The Box 1970s characters.

Subscribed! I've had an affection for vintage Chuck E Cheese and flopped animatronic restaurant chains in general. TBH, I wish Captain Andy's and Gigglebee's stuck around so that CEC could have competition that would actually force them to innovate. Restaurant chain rabbit holes are always interesting to me, especially animatronic ones. And I think it's incredibly unfair what happened to this chain. I love the character designs though I am biased as I adore vintage mascots [for the most part]. I even had a dream universe of a restaurant chain opened in 1980 called Party Time Pizza Zone that was 50s diner themed and was incredibly successful, I'll talk about it in another comment post.

If you think Captain Andy's history is a rabbit hole, there's also Jack In The Box's history. Not an animatronic restaurant, but instead a fast-food chain, but I'd argue the chain's past is incredibly interesting yet sadly hardly anything is documented. Their mascot, a clown named Jack, was around since the chain's beginnings in 1951, yet only the 90s/current version is well known. A curious part of the chain's past was in the 1970s, when there were animated commercials with a more cartoon-y Jack and his group of friends: The Jack In The Box Bunch. Paul Winchell, the original voice of Tigger, did the voices of the characters, most notably Jack himself and Onion Ring Thing. Only three commercials and three comics with records are on KZitem. The Jack In The Box Bunch were introduced in 1971, but there's no information about when and why they were dropped. In the 1980s, Jack In The Box tried to be more "mature" and dropped Jack as a mascot, which for reasons too long to get into on this comment, failed miserably in the long run. There's actually quite a few Jack In The Box stuff on Worthpoint, including a company poster from 1978 that is quite helpful, a few company "Sooper Scooper" magazines with pictures of walkaround costumes, and company advertising posters, including a funny Time Magazine parody cover. It's super frustrating that Jack In The Box poorly documented their own history, they won't even acknowledge the Jack In The Box Bunch or any pre-90s version of Jack.

As someone who once wrote a 30+ page term paper on Meet Me in St. Louis, I can say you're correct that it isn't just a Christmas movie. It's a year in the family's life as they face major life changes (daughters getting engaged, money issues, the possibility that they might move, etc) all set around a backdrop of waiting for the World's Fair that will be held in St. Louis. They celebrate many things, including Christmas. "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" comes at the emotional climax of the film where the family is facing moving to New York City, away from everything they know. At the same time, Judy Garland's character has just gotten engaged and will be leaving the family. That's why the song is encouraging the listener to have a merry Christmas despite difficulties in life. Anyway, if you read this entire mini-essay, I commend you 😅.

Captain Andy's history is so interesting, and it's a shame there's so much lost media, because the characters have such fun and cute designs [Rock-A-Fire Explosion and Creative Engineering take notes] and the restaurant itself looked like fun. I wish that at least ONE of these animatronic restaurants was able to thrive so that modern CEC would have actual competition forcing them to innovate. Lost Media, animatronics, restaurants, and mascots in general are some of my biggest special interests. Speaking of, there was a animatronic pizza place when my mom was little called Pizza Playhouse. It was located in Louisiana and had a dinosaur mascot. There's only a single commercial on KZitem, from 1989. I am not entirely sure if it had animatronics, but my mom seems to remember they did. It's frustrating when restaurant history gets completely forgotten. Looking at Jack In The Box, for example.

Hey! Don't call the Rock-afire designs dated. To me most of them aged like fine wine in my opinion. CEI wasn't going for a cutesy cartoon look. Their design style (or Dave A. Thomas's and David Billy Bob Irving's art styes) were more inspired by the art of underground comics artists like Robert Crumb, Art Spiegelman, Gilbert Shelton, Bill Griffith, and Vaughn Bodē.

While I do love this video you are wrong about a few things Chief among them that animatronics don't make money 🤑 animatronics do make money I worked for Chuck e cheese for the duration of the 90s and the 2000s long enough to acquire his voice in fact. And I worked for corporate semi directly. I can tell you unequivocally that the animatronics brought in guests more than anything if the reason why Chuck e cheese beat out leaps and bounds Discovery zone and every other family entertainment center that did not have an animatronic band🎉 the show brings in what I guess they would call soft money because they differentiate themselves from just a pizza restaurant with a few arcade machines into a legitimate birthday Capital where a live creature celebrates your special day with you ❤️ basically taking aspects of Disney and bringing it to local areas where people can afford some of that magic 🪄
