Abe Vigoda Vlogs?! Who IS This Guy?!?!

Either Abe Vigoda has figured out how to use his webcam or Billy Crystal is exclusively reviving Miracle Max for the Internet. Either way, whoever Edarem is, we sure are glad he's on YouTube, regaling us with seated dances, TV theme lip-syncs, and stark philosophical musings, all shot from the dank interior of his own fire-lit back-alley shack (no, seriously).

We figured mysterious hobos had access to computers, but we didn't think any of them actually worked!

WHO IS THIS MYSTERIOUS MADMAN???

Deconstructing the theme to Scrubs

Performing a "Hungarian dance" (music which, Edarem writes, "moves both man and beast" ...the F?!)

Pondering overbites

Singing over a recording of himself singing 'Chiquita Banana'

Making a telephone call on a banana with Cloris Leachman in 1982

Lip syncing the theme to Walker, Texas Ranger

Paying homage to Fantasy Island's Ricardo Montalban

BONUS: The dude has recorded over 200 songs available for purchase on Midomi. Must. Buy. Now.

I just spent some time watching this guys videos and was totally intrigued. I was thinking that this guys must have an interesting story. Who was he? So I simply posted in the comments for this guy to tell us more about himself. Just a few minutes later came this reply:

"In its earlier days KMBA (now KSHB) aired 41 Treehouse Lane, hosted by "Uncle Ed (nee Ed Muscare)." Ed was also the host of KMBA's Creature Feature on which they showed old horror movies. Unfortunately, while many have fond memories of Ed Muscare as the host of various shows on Channel 41, he turned out to be a less than savoury character. Indeed, he turned out to be a monster worse than any from the Creature Feature. He would eventually be convicted in California of child molestation."

from someone it may be best not to name here. Not sure of protocol. So I do a simple search and find

convicted sex offender. Edward Robert Muscare. I'm going to do more research and come back to leave more info.

I think the wording of these stories are very misleading, which seems to be the strong case in the majority of the media.
He did indeed carry out this crime, but it was mearly a single groap in the early 80's. I dont condem his actions, but I feel it important to point out that the wording of this seems to look as if he had sex or fondled various times, not just one.

Edarem is to me an inspiration. In his 70s, a widower, living in a shack in the middle of no where, and his outlook and enjoyment of life is one I hope to have in just 20 years, let alone 50.

So what if he was convicted of a sex offense? It was over twenty years ago and he finished his debt to society. That part of his life has no relevance to his youtube channel or his videos.

This guy is a convicted sex offender. Take this down. Why would you promote someone of this nature? Not only was he convicted once, but twice, and because he broke his probation by doing videos he's back in jail.

This man should not be anyone's hero or someone to look up to. He's the scum of the earth.

Vile!
Remove his stuff!
