The Bozo Show Final Episode


On July 14th, 2001 the final episode of the Bozo Show aired on WGN. I grew up in the era of Cooky and Wizzo, but also watched religiously as a teen during the Rusty era.

While touring with the Kelly Miller Circus, Ryan and I were able to visit with Marshall Brodien, aka Wizzo, at his home, and tour his collection of magic and Bozo show props, costumes, and other ephemera. 

At multiple Ringling reunions I was able to talk with Robin Eurich, aka Rusty the Handyman, who just passed away two years ago, and I was also able to meet Joey D'Auria, who played Bozo from 1984 until the end of the series, and tell him how much he and the show meant to me.

Enough making this about me! Enjoy the final episode of the Bozo Show!
