Following Filmation were producers Sid and Marty Krofft. When production began on "H.R. Pufnstuf" in 1969, executive producer Si Rose viewed any comedy without a laugh track as a handicap, and convinced the Kroffts to include one on "Pufnstuf". After "Pufnstuf", the Kroffts employed Douglass's services on all shows produced for Saturday morning television (except for "Land of the Lost", which was more dramatic in nature), including "The Bugaloos", "Lidsville", "Sigmund and the Sea Monsters", "The Lost Saucer" and "Far Out Space Nuts". When transitioning from high concept children's programming to live variety shows, the Kroffts continued to employ Douglass for sweetening. Several shows included "Donny and Marie", "The Brady Bunch Variety Hour", "The Krofft Supershow", "The Krofft Superstar Hour", "Pink Lady and Jeff", "Barbara Mandrell and the Mandrell Sisters", "Pryor's Place", as well as their 1987 syndicated sitcom "D.C. Follies".
