The first time I saw him was when I was three and it was on CBS. I was watching Clockman: The Wizard(Name of the TV show at the time). The following year, I watched it again, but it was on an spanish channel. Clockman: The Wizard was a good TV show, but it was canceled after the second episode, sadly.

I'm not sure if it is still called Clockman: The Wizard, but it's still worth a shot to look it up.

Hmm. I think his name was Putnam the Wizard. I say this because there was something about Putnam the Wizard in an article about Pinwheel.


I've been digging around there but I couldn't find anything related to the "Clockman" with "Putnam the Wizard". Also, wiki shut down their entire site for today.

Right......

Anyways, the only thing that I could find by searching with all of my search engines for "Putnam the Wizard" is a movie called "The Wizard". It's about a man who becomes a wizard,and his name is Putnam, basically. The movie was made back in 1989, around the time of "Clockman".

This is all I could find:

Then there was one based on this story of a little girl who lost her red shoes. so she asked a local wizard for hel (who could appear and disappear anywhere). He helped her, but told her she had to tell her mom. The little girl goes home and doesn't hoping the wizard would forget. But then the musicgets eerie as the narrator says 'But the Wizard...did not, forget.' And we see him appearing and disappearing along the house floors, till he suddenly pops out of her clock and steals her away, demanding to know why she didn't tell her mom. She makes up for it by sewing stars to put in the night sky, and the next day is returned home, and tells her mom the truth.

This post was posted in 2004, and it was about animations that the user had seen on Pinwheel. Could be related, or it could not.
What website did you find this on?

I actually did. I dreamed small little bugs were coming out of my mouth and nose, and I could feel them in my throat. <:(

That was a Flood post from back in 2004? Apparently Clockman has eluded detection from somebody else.

Drecker225 is awesome and doesn't afraid of anything.





I cannot wait for the day when I gain control of the world.

I just need to finish my exams (tomorrow morning) and then I can give this all I got. Good luck in any case, hopefully Clock Man will be found tonight!

The profile of the guy who originally posted that is here. If someone has an account on that website it might be possible to message him for help. His last forum post was in 2007 so he probably hasn't logged in in a while but it's worth a shot.

Agreed. All the changes are good and add variety. Do we really want another Halo 3? Just running around with one gun and no armor abilities? It's good that 343 wants to try something new. Do we really want the same thing for three more games?

I'm just going to leave this comment here:

Santa, even though we haven't found him yet, it's been a hell of a ride. Y'know, all of this looking, finding, sniffing, detective work.

I just want to say, it's brought us closer. Who knew all it took was the search for a mysterious entity known only as Clock Man to accomplish this?

In the short time that this search has been carried out, and Santa becoming (well)known throughout the internet for his 28 year old irrational fear, this unlikely band of internet brothers who like to call themselves Floodians has finally merged, into one, collective, sweaty-palmed group. And... all of this, this bonding, it's made me realize something.

Some of you may remember this thread.

It's made me realize, these types of things can't be forced. You can't make such a diverse group of people just merge, or co-operate just like that. It takes something. Just a spark. A tiny spark in the mounds of dry hay that is the potential for the Flood to co-operate.

I'd just like to leave with a closing thought to motivate this search to finally be closed. For Clock Man to be brought to justice. For Santa to face his fear from a cartoon as a grown man! Just remember, as you all are pouring your endless resources, your blood, sweat, and tears over sleepless nights and long hours with no pay, you have joined in the cause for a greater unity of the Flood. We are almost there. The fight, the search is almost over. We shall become one united force, which will blow away any rival, and opponent, any enemy. Some might say we almost changed overnight, for the better.

I'd like to agree.

HOLY -blam!- -blam!-!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THIS IS CLOCK MAN!!!!!!!!!!

This is a HUGE chunk of information!!!!!!!

This is EXACTLY RIGHT!!!!!!

OMG, it's starting to make sense.

Mr. Cheesy, your post might be the clue that finally leads to Clock Man's Capture. This is the back story to Clock Man!

It wasn't a little boy (I probably imagined a boy as I was a young boy at the time) - but I can almost remember the story leading up to the bedroom scene now.

I'm tearing up - SERIOUSLY!...I'm shaking.

We are going to find Clock Man - TONIGHT


ZOMG anticipation!
