My turn again... geez, I'm, like, dominating this game... I guess I better get some leather chaps, and a whip...
You have barging rights.

Hmm... Show in the eighties and longest running cable show of 2000 you say. Hard one. I give up. The only show I can think of that ran from 84-90 was Muppet Babies, but I know that's not it. Did it teach anything specific?

This is to Fun! I can't belive no one has got this yet.


1. Taught kids in the 80's
2. Not 321 Contact
3. Not Reading Rainbow
4. Not Pinnwheel
5. Not Carman Sandiago
6. No Electric Company
7. Not Muppet Babies
8. Not Charls In Charge (I don't think it even teaches kids)
9. Not Tomas The Tank engine
10. Made New shows from 1984-1990
11. Was a Cable Networks longesst running show in 2000
12. Was paid tribute to on another show in 1994


Two more hints
The Star of the show passed away in 2007, and the show would run at least 3 times on it's Network. If you look at Ilikemuppets pic you will find out what Network, In fact it Rymes with PIC.

Edit: I need to say that I have messed up with the date. it was made in 1983-1990 NOT 1984-1990! Sorry about that, I had looked that up, but must have goten mixed up when i typed it.

I am going to guess Today's Special even though I know that is wrong.
