Pompel & Pilt (1969)
Pompel & Pilt are two unique characters developed for Norwegian television, and they have scared thousands of innocent kids into their adolescence, and have without a shadow of a doubt left deep scars in many a young mind. Yes, of course they are just dolls, but still ... they are infinitely weird and their surroundings extremely surreal. The point was to make children think for themselves, and that was probably the result. That and countless nightmares about the evil janitor, Gorgon! The plot is simple. Pompel & Pilt think of themselves as clever repairmen, like MacGyver, only not equally adept, and the result is always disaster. ------------------------------------ The show was both loved and hated because the characters "Pompel og Pilt" were unlike any other children's TV characters, being surreal and amoral. After the series was broadcast in 1969, 1973, 1976, 1979 and 1985, the show was banned by NRK (Norwegian National Broadcasting) as it was deemed too dangerous for children. After this a huge cult-following grew, demanding to get "Pompel og Pilt" back on television and today the characters are considered one of the greatest pop-cultural icons in Norwegian television-history Source: IMDb:
