There were parodies of some of those shows, including a John Robbins spoof! (Mind you, they didn't show his face, but his arm drawing on the board.)
You know how sometimes the story went ahead of what he was drawing, so they cut the picture to him drawing the scene the story was talking about? Well, on this one he was drawing away, and the storyteller kept on with the story, the John imitator kept trying to draw faster to catch up, until he had enough and punched the off-screen storyteller out!
Now there's a YouTube clip of that "On the Television" parody (called "Once Upon a Pencil")!
