80's animation trivia

My dad and I can't remember the name of this animation, anyone out there remember?

 In the mid 80s there was an animation segment on some tv show of a little 4 inch guy who lived on a glass.  He was a detective and all of his shows took place on the glass with his friends inside other glasses.

 At any rate, I loved it when I was little and we can't think of the name of it.

The song went something like 'handy dandy magical little guy...'

Anyone out there know? It's driving us crazy!

  • Oh man, I totally know what you're talking about! There was a glass that had a dog, too. I can picture it in my head, didn't they come out of the cabinet shelves?

  • That's the one I was talking about, hope it's what the OP meant, too! How the heck did you find it? I googled everything I could think of.

    DH said it was from Sesame Street and that triggered the google search.

  • sesame street was a million times cooler back in the day. it is still interesting to her but not anything like it was when we were all kids.
  • All I can say is WOW.  Thank you ladies!  I can't believe you knew this!

     My family and I have been trying to think of this for weeks and googled everything we could think of!

    Each time I would talk to my Dad on the phone I would hum a new theme song trying to remember the words.

    This U Tube video is classic, can anyone blame me for loving this when I was little!?   

    Thank you!!!!!!!! 

  • omg I totally remember this!!  How cool!
  • One of the comments under the utube video is cute.  One person said they got in trouble as a kid because they drew all over their parents glasses.

    I was trying to find a glass or tee to buy for my dad because he got a kick out of it too but i had no luck.

    I think I'll end out printing pictures and taping them onto clear cups as a joke next time i visit 

  • If you're feeling crafty, you could take this lady's approach:
