Is this the show where people got slimed?
The opening looks like someone from Monty Python did it. :D
The Cap'N Crunch commercial at 12:25 features a very young Fred Savage.
The humor was juvenile but clean, I loved watching it then, and still laugh now. Moreover, Moose is a TV producer in her 50s, and Lord forgive me, I still have a crush on her 😉
One of the cast members was Alannis Morrisette.

Looks like they have one season of it streaming on Paramount+

Speaking of old kids shows. Before ZOOM was a school at home App of Hollywood Squares in recent years, it was a 1970’s PBS kids show from Boston.
Anyone remember this show? Yes, I’m aging myself :)

Zoom zoom zoom zoomazoomdo. I watched it alot when I was a kid too.
Things were pretty white back then.
Oh my thank you.
I suddenly remember I had a crush on Christine.
Ditto.
That makes three of us
Supposedly the reason that “You Can’t Do That on Television” wasn’t released on commercial video, despite high demand, is that so many players and staff cycled through the show over its run that the royalties would be a nightmare. A few episodes did slip through copyright renewals over the years and have been released.
And yes, I remember the original incarnation of “ZOOM” out of “Boston Mass 02134”. While clearing out my parents’ house a few years ago I found our old copy of their crafts-and-activities book, “Do a ZOOM Do”...which made for a few good jokes in our new “remote” world.
That’s why also it’s hard to find WKRP in Cincinnati because the episodes played a lot of music that they had to pay royalties for.

I was just recalling how my friends and I went around speaking Ubbi Dubbi (or at least trying our best)
“The Wonder Years” had the same problem until recently.
