I along with my sisters and brother were all on Kitirk. Watched it all the time. What I would give to find copies of the show any of us were on. My wonderful Mom always tried to make our birthdays special. A couple of us were on Mary Janes’s Magic Castle and one on Captain Bob. Kitirik was the best she was a wonderful person. Didn’t really appreciate as kids but certainly realized when we got older. Thank you KTRK-TV for making that happen.
I remember Kitirik. Loved her as a child.
I love Kitirik. What a wonderful part of Houston history. I remember being on the show. Thank you for wonderful memories ♥️
Back in the day, it was Kitirik and Cadet Don! My brother and I watched both in the early '60s. MY birthday present was under the couch!
I was her regular letter carrier in the 90's. I didnt see her show when I was a kid because I grew up in another town. But let me tell you, she is just about the sweetest person you'll ever meet. There were a couple other TV personalities on that route, a minor movie star, and a few other celebrities. None as sweet as she is. I'm not and never was just wowed and awed by celebrities, they're just people to me. And Kitty is a great person.
Mrs. Orsak, you were a beloved part of my childhood. Thanks for the great memories!
I loved Kitirik SO MUCH!!! Thank you Mrs. Orsak for your wonderful work.
I watched her on TV regularly when I was a kid. I actually got to meet her when my Cub Scout den went to visit her program.
I was on Kitirik in 1969. I had a huge crush on her. Watched her and Cadet Don every chance I could.
What a blast from the past !! I too was on kitiric on my 7th birthday !!!!
My sister and I (along with our Girl Scout troop) were so privileged to be in the live studio audience of the Kitirik show in the early 1960's. She provided such goodness and charity and was a great role model to so many. It is something I will remember always with fondness. Thanks to Dave Ward, I am very happy and pleased to watch this recent interview. Mrs. Orsak looks marvelous and has lived a wonderful life.
My favorite show as a child.
Good to see Ms Orsak still holding it down; man it's good to see that, and Dave Ward too!
I loved kitirik and Dave Ward has was there for like forever, but Kitirik is one of my fondest memories. Thank you for that, as a youngster you were special!!
I was on a completely unrelated video comments and something reminded me of Kitirik, so out of curiosity, i googled her and ended up here. So much nostalgia
I was on kitirik when I was a little brownie....that cat was so kind and pretty..I loved her... I was disappointed her flowers were plastic on her swing. 😅😅....she was great!!
Oooooh, KiTiRiK! How wonderful to see you! Your show was the highlight of my day. Thank you for those sweet memories.
My Grandmother would take me to the L&C Cafeteria every time Kitirik was there. Great Memories
My childhood favorite! I loved her!
How could anyone give this a thumbs down??? Go Kitirik!
I remember going to the show for a birthday party. They had the nest where she talked to the kids. I was so shy but all of a sudden this tall man came and picked me up out of the audience. I got picked to take a card out of the rolling bin. When we went back to the house for the party we got to watch it on tv. Ive also been in the paper twice for the rodeo western wear contest. Won at my school and another picture coming to the rodeo. Chuck Connors and Johnny Crawford performed.
💜💜💜 I just saw this - I LOVE it! Beautiful story 💜💜💜
So fantastic....Really love seeing and listening to her⁰
Loved KiTiRiK. Didn't recognize Dave Ward until he spoke.
Thanks for sharing.
Great to see this. Along with a great interview from her, there's something about an announcer voice...not the fake shout Sunday SunDAY SUNDAY kind of thing, the true announcer rumble that's just neat to listen to.
I was there for my birthday in 1967
I must have watched Kiterik every day as a young child.
I remember her, I would love watching her and Cadet Don. Is he still living? She looks well
I was on the show when i was 5 or so..
My 15 minutes of fame...
KITIRICK TOLD ME I WAS THE BEST AND CUTEST KID WHO EVER WAS APPEARED ON THE SHOW...I WAS SUMPLY AWESOME.....
Simply AWESOME....
Then....she took me to her dressing room....and said i was so special....
Im still in thearpy till this day...
5:45 Dang right we remember you!!! Rest assured of THAT!!!
Loved Kitirik..... it was a show you didn't miss and no recordings you had to be in front of that TV...
I never got to see Kitirik in person and ride the carousel! Sure wish I had!! 🐱💗
My parents had my 6th birthday party at Kitirix's I remember!!
Would like to find information on Cadet Dawn and the Saturday late night scary show called weird which they produced especially the opening role in
What a gorgeous lady!
I read there was a replacement Kitirik in '65 and '66 named Toni Burke. Wonder why? Oh, and that's 20s Jazz icon Cliff "Ukelele Ike" Edwards third from upper-right at 4:49.
I spun around on that carousel and when Kitirik asked what i wanted to do when i grow up i said "i wanna have 10 kids and eat lots of spaghetti" Not as funny as the call girl, but still pretty good.
Went for a birthday..it was awesome!!!
My first love!!! Age 5.
Love Her ! She Literally was my neighbor growing up. I use to stand in my treehouse and watch her in her back yard. LOL. My brother was on her show.... Not me... Bummer !!
Kitirik : my favorite human kitty. In the 1950s my mom took me to attend the show. And I got an autographed photo from Kitirik. And I often watched the show from home. My favorite TV show of all was “WEIRD” on Saturday nights on KTRK. It showed a wide diversity of horror films.
My brother and I spent many, many nights watching Weird.
Jan 29th 64 or 65 I rode the carrosel. My sister Alice danced on Larry Kane
I was on the show! Skipper Bradleys mom worked for my grandfather Dr.Benjamin Joseph Geringer!
That thumbs down probably came from Ch. 39 - Maryjane's Magic Castle or Don Mahoney & Jeanna Claire Kiddie Troopers......rofl. Houston had many local programs for kids.
I was a little fart in the '60s and remember that lady being on Channel 13 in Houston.
That was one lucky Santa.
and she carried a gun
She had great legs.
The day I forget Kitirik is the day I stop breathing.
Little kids probably thought she really was a cat!
Oh she was the thing back then
Try that today and the station would receive a summons for harassment
Dave's looking a little frumpy.
We all get old yknow.
Leave it to boomers to be judgmental
