Just saw a "What was your favorite PBS Kids show" poll but only one of them was old enough that I actually remembered it sO

Please note that this poll does NOT contain the Big Three PBS Kids Shows: Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, Sesame Street, or Bill Nye the Science Guy. It also does not include Barney & Friends or Teletubbies. This is deliberate on my part. (I may make a separate poll for them later.)

Which is the best PBS Kids show: Millennial Edition

Shining Time Station

Wishbone

Lamb Chop's Play-Along

The Magic School Bus

Cyberchase

Ghostwriter

Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego? (1991-1996)

The Puzzle Place

Does anyone else remember Pappy land?

I was feeling nostalgic and thinking of the things I used to do as a kid and I suddenly remembered PappyLand.

For those of you who don’t know, it was a tv show about the old guy in red overalls that hung out in this world that he drew and taught you how to art. Like he had a talking paintbrush as a sidekick and he went through art exercises in a really fun way. There was one lesson where he had you draw random squiggles and shapes on a paper and then told you to make an interesting drawing out of it. He was drawing on his patterns and ended up making some really cool scenes. The theme song was weird as hell but I always sang it when it came on. Please tell me someone else remembers this??

Did you ever want to paint?🎨

Did you ever want to draw?✏️

Did you ever want to recreate anything at all?🧡

This is for my fellow millenial artists who grew up watching a lot of PBS🥹😭

I absolutely loved Pappyland when I was a kid! I distinctly remember sitting in front of the TV with my sketchbook, trying to follow along while Pappy Drewitt here brought a new cartoon character to life, each week. I wanted so much to see my drawings featured in the “Hall of Frames” segment at the end of every episode!

This show meant so much to me, and still does. It was really fun and whimsical, and I felt so seen🧡there weren’t a lot of programs back then specifically for art kids, let alone ones with a wild imagination. Pappyland was all of those things, and I’ll always remember it fondly.

I dunno if Michael Cariglio still has an active social media profile, but if he does happen to see this, I hope he knows how much brighter this show made my childhood🙏
