Edarem Dies

I wish I could find if tapes of his old show exist.

The network affiliate that aired the show is all like 'Show? What show? That never existed! Stop asking!' When somebody went on to post an old promo for Ed's show on youtube it was immediately taken down.

Not that I can't understand just WHY this might be an embarrassment for the network. I am just surprised they pulled off such a seamless FNORD on the subject. It was never mentioned he was the former host of a children's show on any of the news bytes about his arrest.

Oh god. Was Edarem 'Uncle Ed'?!

I watched that show... And, I think it was, in fact, him. It explains why he was weirdly familiar.

Yes indeed it is. Though strangely, in searching for information, I found out that there was *another* guy who went by the name Uncle Ed who also molested kids.

The *other* Uncle Ed paid kids for anal sex, kept their poop in pizza boxes and kept doing it after his arrest and even after getting his HIV diagnosis.

he kept shit in pizza boxes?

Kid shit in pizza boxes. Yes.

(Not Edarem, but the other child-molesting Uncle Ed, AKA Dr. Feelgood, AKA Fast Eddy).

That was the same Uncle Ed that Howard Stern wrote about in "Miss America", with the glorious photo-realistic Drew Friedman illustration of a guy hunched over a turd-filled toilet, clutching knife and fork and licking his lips. Man, that book really had its moments.

For what it's worth, Marion seemed to be a bright spot in Ed's humiliating final years. It's fairly tragic that this woman went to great lengths moving her family across the country, and will never get to live the fantasy married life she dreamed of. Somehow she still brought a broken man some happiness, and shared a little for herself, right before he checked out as a sickly prisoner.

Honestly, I am kind of relieved this happened before Ed got out of prison, they got married, and reality set in. There are documentaries out there about women who "date" dudes that are serving life sentences--it's kind of the (stereotypically) female version of the Real Doll; instead of fucking a doll and not having to deal with the troublesome emotional reality of an actual person, they get to have the romance from afar without ever finding out what kind of day-to-day bullshit got their dudes into prison in the first place.

Having sent letters to his show in the 80's, somewhere in my mother's house I have one of these signed pictures. This one belongs to some guy on the internet:
