Description
Description
A brand new statue was recently unveiled in Fremont honoring TV icons J.P. Patches and Gertrude. Local fans – called Patches Pals – attended the unveiling in droves. Launched on KIRO TV in 1958, and running for 23 years, "The J.P. Patches Show" is thought to be the longest running locally–produced kids show in America. Today Chris Wedes and Bob Newman (J.P. and Gertrude) join us to reminisce about the show and their lives. What do you remember about "The J.P. Patches Show"? Share your memories thoughts with us.
