This one kinda hits hard for me, as I grew up with their show (Sharon, Lois, and Bram's Elephant Show) on Nickelodeon in the early-to-mid 90's and I can still remember their closing song, Skinnamarink very easily.

Thanks for everything that you have done for the children of Canada, the United States, and abroad. You will be sorely missed, Lois. RIP.

I didn't recognize the name until you mentioned SKinnamarink... and I immediately remembered the song.

RIP.

[HMARK Center]

Aw man. Just hit me how much that show was on when I was little, and Nickelodeon was a huge combination of in-house game shows, British cartoons, and live-action Canadian children's programming.

Definitely a big part of the childhood right there.

RIP. What an impact she had on so many.

[Burst]

Damn. I knew she had retired from the group a while back but this looks like it was recent.

I think pretty much everyone that watched Nick Jr. in the early 90's remembers them even if they don't necessarily remember anything but the animated elephants and the theme song.

I loved Sharon, Lois, and Bram when I was a tyke. This makes me sad.

[MichaelMartini]

I came in here hoping to see a photo shop of Bram from TNA as part of the trio.

Dang, I loved the heck out of The Elephant Show when I was little. I always remembered the theme song.



R.I.P.

[Porky's Butthole]

Didn't they also do Day Old Donuts Have Got To Go?

Either way, RIP.

RIP, we all love you and we'll see you next time. In her honor:

[Brandon Walsh is Insane.]

I loved the show. RIP

man I grew up on the Elephant Show. RIP, Lois.

I hadn't thought of it in years, but I had this image in the back of my memory of seeing them perform on stage. I called my Mom about it and, sure enough, she took me to see them live. Once she told me that she surprised me with tickets, it all came flooding back. April 1990 at the Orpheum in St. Paul. I was three at the time and there we were watching people who made me so happy on the TV right there in front of me. And, yes, they brought the elephant with them.

That might have very well been my first concert. It was 25 years ago at an age I don't remember much from, but that memory in the back of my head I hadn't even activated just shot right out.

I read this as Stewie Lois and Brian
