Back in those days, the only time you ever saw a TV being used in class was when something on PBS showed up during school hours. Sometimes the school might even saved a copy of the program if they had a 3/4" U-Matic deck lying around but that was all you got (besides Mr. 16mm and Mrs. 35mm Filmstrip projectors). Here's one such program I remember wasting my first grade existence on...

Those promos are great. It's neat to look at these hand animated titles. Great designs and it looks like replacement style stop motion. Amazing stuff.
