Ha! I knew it as soon as I got the hat and the hair. (It's Kadiddlehopper, not Kiddlehopper.) You got the finger in the mouth just right. I guess you have to be a certain age to remember...

after line/color logic:
look at the 6/7 clues in rows 30/31 that are partially filled in (5 pixels of each clue are filled in already); they cant both extend to the left into c18 so at least one of them must extend to the right into c24 so you can put a black in r30c24 (more line logic)
r35 and r36 each have a 1 clue remaining, in c15-16
they cant both go into c15 so you can dot r30c16 (and dot r30c15)
next look at the 2 clue in r32; if it goes in c16-17 then 2 moves later you force another 1 clue into r32 so you can dot r32c16-17 and also put a black clue into r32c13 (another way to look at the same area is no matter where you place the 3 clue in c16, r32c13 is always black
more line logic

i will come back to this when i get a minute

Thx Lollipop,i knew it was Kadiddlehopper but the DVD i have has it spelled the way i had it,and yes you definitely have to be older to remember Red. He was a comedic genius in my opinion.:)

Thx Bug,I assume this means you were able to solve it without guessing.:)

Same here - the hat and hair could only belong to one character - also a favorite of mine! This was one show that my parents let us stay up late to watch, and it was the highlight of the week! Comic genius is an understatement! Thanks, Aldege - for the puzzle, and for the nostalgia! :)

Your welcome Tonia and thank you, i can remember as a little boy watching Red with my dad and my dad laughing so hard he had tears in his eyes.:)
