Anybody else still watch PBS?
I'll probably regret admitting this but I'm trying to find the first few seasons of Arthur on DVD.

Oh, man. I'd come home and watch Arthur everyday when I was in elementary school! I still watch when I catch it on TV, which is rare. Was Gumby played on PBS? I also remember Zoom.

Someone recently brought up Arthur at school, for what reason, I don't remember. They were talking about how the show included race and Jewish people. Apparently one of the characters is Jewish?

I don't remember the show that well. I just remember Arthur and Buster.

A-A-R-D-V-A-R-K.

I learned how to spell aardvark from Arthur.

I think Francine is Jewish. I vaguely remember her mentioning Hanukkah during the Christmas episode.

Francine. Because she is Jewish, Francine celebrates Chanukah in December instead of Christmas.

Ahhh, I remember watching Arthur back in elementary school (I had no cable). I would always come home after school and try not to be late so I can watch it. I believe it started at 2:30 or 3:30? Forgot.

I REMEMBER ZOOM. I liked that show. I wonder what happened to that show.

But now, I don't see it anymore or at least I don't see it air when it comes on. I usually catch Dragon Tales LOL. But not Arthur.

I like Buster. haha. hes funny.

Dragon Tales!

There's Ord, who is so brave at heart,
there's Cassie, so shy also very smart,
there's Zac and Wheezy and the tales of fun,
'cause two heads are better than one.

...or something like that.

And I never knew that was the same guy that was in Star Trek.

Lol, I used to watch Arthur when I was really little. I'd always come home after school and watch it... and for some reason I remember always drinking orange soda. I think I got that from the show.

Occasionally, we'll watch some of their documentaries in class. Like the Blue Eye/Brown Eye experiment that third grade teacher did in 1970 and some Vietnam documentaries.

listen to the beat
listen to the rythem
the rythem of the street

its a simple message
and it comes from the heart
believe in yourself
and thats the way to start.

and i said.. HEY!

HEY!... D. W!!!!

What's funny is when I saw the title I KNEW you were talking about Arthur.

I watched it last when I was babysitting for these kids and I was like "damn I miss these shows."

Poor little kids. All they have to look forward to is Hannah Montana.
Which might turn into another Britney Spears case.

We had Transformers. Who's gonna go crazy and starve for attention from that? lol not me, that's who. If I had to watch Disney Channel I think I would be a mean, cranky person lol.

No wonder that title sounded very familiar, first I wasn't sure if you meant the show or the saying.
I used to watch a lot PBS when I was in high school cause I heard that it helps you get closer to
little kids like love them and not get sick of them o___o it actually helped me a lot cause I was doing
child day care service for my friend's mother. Did I sounded like a pedophile molester? Cause I didn't
mean it that way. And please, don't say Michael Jackson -__________-;; Oh wells, you are going to end
up saying cause some of you guys hate me and like to piss me off ^__^
