70's Flashback - Schoolhouse Rock!


Any kid who watched the Super Friends (and the other cartoons) on ABC's Saturday morning cartoon lineup knows all about Schoolhouse Rock! And I'm betting you still remember the words - like I do.

Schoolhouse Rock! was a series of educational musical shorts that played on Saturday mornings on ABC in the 70's and 80's. They taught about Math and Science (I absolutely hated those), as well as Grammar and History (loved those).

Here are some of my favorites ... anyone else remember these?...

  2. I was a junior in high school in 1973... so the kids I babysat probably watched them. :-) You, youngster you.

  4. There was also one about how a bill was written and passed. By the way, do you remember the cartoon called "Wait till you father gets home"?

  5. David -

    "I'm Just A Bill" was another of my faves.

    And no, I don't think I've ever heard of that show. Was it good?

    XOXOXOXOXO
