The reason why the show lasted only one season was. The actress, Sheri Lewis passed away from Cancer. I remember Dom DeLuise stated that she will miss Sheri Lewis as well. I was 11 when this happened. I even watched the news when they announced the puppeteer behind Lamb Chop, Charlie Horse and Hush Puppy has died. I remember the story poured out on Entertainment Tonight. It was really shocked. I remember felling sorry for Mary Hart and John Tesh when they heard the news on the passing of Sheri Lewis. Dom DeLuise attended the memorial service for Sheri Lewis. And I loved this show. Now her daughter took over the puppetry.

This was a really cute show!

I was about 11 or 12 when Charlie Horse Music Pizza aired, but I was a fan nonetheless having grown up with Shari Lewis shows in the early 90s. She was a part of me. This show was just like any other Shari Lewis creation; it had good musical numbers, just the right amount of comedy, and of course life lessons. I really missed the show when it went off the air. I remember coming home just to watch it and sing the theme song. What made this show truly special was the fact that anyone of any age could watch it and get something out of it. It wasn't too childish. It was a good family show that pretty much kept up with the times but had it's own special sensitive appeal.
