Tolouse NoNeck - The host of Shock Theater
broadcast on Milwaukee's WISN-TV Channel 12 from 1979-1985.
Chicago native Rick Felski donned
sunglasses, fangs, bushy hair, a hump, top hat and tails and a bird (sitting on
his shoulder) to become Tolouse NoNeck,
Toulouse NoNeck talked like Peter Lorre and called his viewers "Zombies" (in
fact, his theme song was "Welcome Zombies" by Pat McCurdy and The Men About
Town).
Besides showing the worst in horror films NoNeck enjoyed doing parodies of
popular songs, thus "Wild Thing" by the Troggs became "Dead Thing."
Felski's interest in music and videos lead to the creation of Shock Rock, a
music video program hosted by Tolouse NoNeck also broadcast on WISN-TV starting
in 1985.
In 1988, Rick Felski abandoned broadcasting for a career in real estate.
