The Big Comfy Couch aired on PBS from the mid-1990s to the mid-2000s. You may remember your children or grandchildren watching the star of the show, a clown named Loonette and her doll Molly, spend her time on the couch solving the mysteries of the day. Or maybe you’re like my youngest daughter, who spent hours singing and playing along with Loonette. Regardless of where you find yourself in the analogy, The Big Comfy Couch was a make-believe world.
