How bout between the lions? Wasn't it educational?
Where is the backyardigans?
Who created you? God!
The Nervous System episode of School House Rock not only helped me figure out how seizures work, but that and 8:07 that episode of The Magic School Bus made an 8 year girl old fall in love with epidemiology. 🙂
Too bad Magic School Bus and Bill Nye were ruined by Netflix
forced to watch bill nye for science class in 6th grade
Oh the nostalgia of being a kid!
I'm writing this comment before I watch the video. If the eternal gem that is Cyberchase is not at least on this list, if not number 1, I may never watch another WM video again. It'll be a long time, at least.
Where is Caillou ueueueueueueuueueueuueueueuueueueueueuue ueueueueueueuueueueuueueueuueueueueueuue Mommy I want that toy
The Puzzle Place, anyone?
What about the fixies
In my childhood I watch Sesame Street,Blue's clues with Mister Rogers Neighbors and reading rainbow and I grew with the magic school bus and Bill Nye the science guy!
Big Bird was so creepy back then until now he's cute
Where's ZOOM!?!
The electric company
Ah zaboomafoo my childhood
Where is fetch with ruff ruffman
what about fetch with ruff ruffman sorry im a bad speller
The only thing I learned from Bill Nye the Science Guy was the theme song
I hope we have more kid's shows where the protagonist is a girl.
Reading Rainbow was my favorite ❤️
Man miss the 70's children's television workshop
Ok I assumed Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! WOULDN'T be here but I'm SHOCKED to find out Dora didn't make it EITHER! O.O (The latter I hated. XD)
I don't know why but I was scared of Sesame Street until I was in 4th grade
I cried when o heard Mr. Rodger talking
BILL NYE THE SCIENCE GUY!!!
sid the science kid is creepy
Memories at #5,#4,#2, the Berenstein Bears and. Sesame Street
Why wasn't Shining Time Station on the list?
Bill bill bill bill bill bill bill
My friends and I made fun of the name " Bill Nye the Science Guy"
And I love The Magic School bus
Liberty kids is like Baby's first Hamilton, I mean just listen to that bumping ass theme song!
Blues clues
where is my "Between the lions"?!
Sid The Science Kid is bull crap.
OMG I USED TO LOVE ZABOOMAFOO
I always loved how Mr Rogers Neighborhood had a trolley. Barely anyone remembers streetcars.
Legit as soon as I saw the thumbnail, I got the song stuck in my head
What about wishbone? What’s the story wishbone?
No Peep and the Big Wide World?? Or ZOOM? How could you????
Finding out Bill Nye is a fraud ruined his show forever for me.. but the rest of these deserve to be on this list.
