:''For the death metal group, see Dr. Shrinker (band)'' ''Dr. Shrinker'' was a segment during the first season of the ABC network's ''The Krofft Supershow'' in 1976. ==Plot== Dr. Shrinker (Jay Robinson) is a mad scientist who creates a shrink ray that can miniaturize anything. Three young adults named Brad Fulton (Ted Eccles), B.J. Masterson (Susan Lawrence) and her brother Gordie Masterson (Jeff MacKay), crash land their plane on an island. As they make their way to the only house on the island, they meet the aptly named Dr. Shrinker and his assistant, Hugo (Billy Barty). Dr. Shrinker, in an effort to prove that his shrinking ray works, shrinks the three people down to six inches tall. The remainder of the series was different efforts by the 'Shrinkies' to get unshrunk, while Dr. Shrinker and Hugo want to catch the trio so that they will have physical proof that the ray works when they sell it to whatever world power wants to buy it (The good doctor also implied that he would give the unnamed buyer the Shrinkies to use however he wanted as a free bonus). Each episode was basically the same. As Dr. Shrinker himself said in one episode..."I chase the Shrinkies. I catch the Shrinkies. The Shrinkies escape. It's a vicious cycle and it's driving me mad!" ''Dr. Shrinker'' lasted only one season on the ''Krofft Supershow''. During the second season, it was dropped along with ''Electra Woman and Dyna Girl''. One episode, "Slowly I Turn", is available on DVD with the Krofft Box Set. Marty Krofft has said that he and his brother will be recording commentary for a DVD release of ''Dr. Shrinker''.〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dr. Shrinker」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
