A Sci Fi Monster in our Own Home

One of our son's favorite noises to make sounds to Chris like the the Sleestak from the 1970s "Land of the Lost" television series. Click on the MP3 of "Sleestak doing their thing" to hear an example! As a Trekkie unfamiliar with "Land of the Lost," I think that John sounds like the Gorn from the Original Star Trek episode "The Arena."

EDIT: Upon review, Chris now says that John most accurately sounds like the Gorn.

  1. Oh!! Sleestacks! I have to post this on my blog still, but i made the *mistake* of buying my kids all 3 seasons [one per yr] of Land of the Lost. I LOVED it as a kid...as a mom...hmmmm, not so much!! My kids LOVE Love love this show. they watch them in the "tank" on the dvd player - so I'm subject to all the, ahem, *acting* :O)

  3. Janeane: I am a lifelong Trekkie, thanks to my mom. I love the Original Star Trek best. The Next Generation is okay, but I don't like any of the other shows.
