I loved those old classics.

I would, but: https://videosift.com/video/Mr-Wizards-a-Dick

I didn't, but I grew up watching Mr. Wizard's World, 3-2-1 Contact, Square One TV, etc. Good shit.

Bonus points go to you.

I thought that was Mr. Wizard!

No need to feel dumb ... for some reason they are not there. I even tried switching to an alternate embed code, but that didn't fix the problem either. I've never seen one like this. Perhaps our Mr. Wizard @lucky760 can enlighten us.

so who is this old paedo?
Paedo? He clearly hates those children.

this was a children's show in the 1980s on a children's network called Nickelodeon. The show consisted of about 4 or 5 scientific "experiments" that Mr. Wizard (Don Herbert) introduced to one of these kids each week.

This is clearly a show for parents, that have recently sent thier kids back to school *promote

Wow, memories! I loved that show when I was a kid. At least, I loved it before 1960 or so. Then I got too old to be science-y. Yeah, I was that stupid.

My favorite quote here is at 1:10
Mr. Wizard - "Well you have one of those inside your head"
Kid - "I do"
Mr. Wizard - "Ya it's called a brain"
LOL
Still one of my favorite shows as a kid though seriously. Forget Mr. Rogers, Mr. Wizard was where it's at, was, well you get my point.


Mr. Rogers was awesome because of his advocacy for public broadcasting and education. But, yeah, Mr. Wizard was a better show AND he didn't have those creeeeeeepy puppets.

This this this this.

Talk to kids like they're little adults. Because they are, and they'll appreciate the respect that you're showing for their intellect.>> ^brycewi19:

He wasn't being a dick. He just wasn't telling these kids were little angels who get everything right (even when they're wrong).
He wasn't afraid to also teach them a bit of humility.
BTW, this was my favorite show growing up.

I hope you gave @pumkinandstorm an Assister Badge for this. She is the one that promoted this puppy into Topdom.
