After designing the characters and sets for [[Hanna-Barbera]]'s ''[[The Banana Splits]]'' (NBC, 1968–1970), the Kroffts' producing career began in 1969 with the landmark children's television series ''[[H.R. Pufnstuf]]''. The series introduced the team's trademark style of large-scale, colourful design, puppetry, and special effects. Featuring a boy who has been lured into an alternate fantasy world and can never escape, the team also established a storytelling formula to which they would often return. Some people suggested that the Krofft brothers were influenced by [[cannabis (drug)|marijuana]] and [[Lysergic acid diethylamide|LSD]], although they have always denied these claims. In a 2005 interview with ''[[USA Today]]'', Marty Krofft said, "No drugs involved. You can't do drugs when you're making shows. Maybe after, but not during. We're bizarre, that's all."<ref>{{cite news | url=https://www.usatoday.com/community/chat/2002-02-13-krofft.htm | work=USA Today | title='The World of Sid and Marty Krofft': Marty Krofft | date=January 21, 2005 | access-date=September 11, 2017 | archive-date=May 19, 2012 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120519071731/http://www.usatoday.com/community/chat/2002-02-13-krofft.htm | url-status=live }}</ref> Referring to the alleged LSD use, Marty said in another interview, "That was our look, those were the colours, everything we did had vivid colours, but there was no acid involved. That scared me. I'm no goody two-shoes, but you can't create this stuff stoned."<ref>[http://www.albany.net/~genxtv/krofft.html The Krofft Oeuvre<!-- Bot generated title -->] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20050212075342/http://www.albany.net/~genxtv/krofft.html |date=February 12, 2005 }}</ref>
