I didn't notice till now everyone went back to help a friend, no matter the outcome, no man left behind: Vince went back for Mikey, Spinelli went back for Gretchen and finally Gus went back for TJ. I like how its a principle thing, where if some one is going to get taken down, then they wont have to do it alone. Really touching.

[@beckykennedy6886]

Well, it just shows they truly are good friends.

[@dougjones1667]

TJ ain’t go back for anyone the bitch

I know right. I’m astonished just at the level of depth these episodes had.

[@mrsfahrenheit]

@@MrTheamirit was (is) a fantastic show

[@dennycrain8384]

I like Randall's harmonica. "Took it off a messy kid." That's like in a war movie, where one of the soldiers scavenges the prized possessions of someone killed in action.

[@jeffreygao3956]

Works even if it’s a medieval or early modern war.

[@sageturmelle]

I never realized this,but Randall looks like he could be Moe Syzlak's little cousin.

[@Isellsimpsandsimpaccessories]

Recess is a masterpiece. This epsiode, one of the best in terms of emotional content. When TJ and Gus were running it showed how determined they were, TJ especially as Lawson began being... Well, Lawson. That look on TJ's face as he was waiting for Lawson to throw cheese on him made his monologue in one of the Digger's holes ring through my head. TJ's parents probably don't know how amazing their son is, but I'm sure they were the same as kids.

[@pineer5660]

My favourite part is Randall playing the harmonica 😂😂

[@chris61981]

What was he playing?

[@joffdorling3562]

I agree same here 😂

[@chris61981]

Does anyone have the full version of the song he's playing?

I'm not sure 😊

[@metv8562]

Karl Smith hey man as a child ive been watching recess and always enjoying this part with the harmonica. Last year ive found this video again and decided to start a search for the original song. Today (more than one year later) ive finaly found the full title. I hope that you can enjoy the full song now just as i am going to do. Kind regards, Noah. Song: Red River Valey

Did anyone notice the Ashleys are wearing the same dresses they wore in the episode "The Contest" where they compete against Spinelli in the beauty pageant?

[@MovieLover1995]

They also wore them on the last day of school in the movie, Recess: School’s Out.

[@eringel2424]

3 things. The way TJ carries himself about and the things he says are truly inspirational. I mean that. Also, the photo at the end: TJ winks just before the video is over. The last thing? When Randal says "Took it off a messy kid." I almost cried from how beautiful and perfect the scene was. This is brilliant, no, this is perfect writing. This is more than a cartoon ladies and gentlemen. This is my inspiration.

[@lieutenantyoshi5704]

This was one of my favorite episodes especially the moving ending and the Apocalypse Now vibe.

[@hellokittyangel211]

I REALLY hope that the writers’/illustrators’ homage to the original elementary school tough girl brunette that everyone loved (Lucille van Pelt) with Spenelli’s hair style was purposeful because that would be an AWsome subtle detail if it was.

[@Active_Sun_Particles]

I remember being so impressed as a kid that they mentioned British bulldog in this episode, we played it a lot when i was in primary school

[@amabel__4531]

Oh my gooood, this is so corny and heartfelt. I loved the ending. What a sappy cartoon :)

[@DeathEgg666]

one of the best episodes lol......specially randalls harmonica solo....its like a zombie apocalypse the way he says 'took it off a messy kid' lol good stuff

[@spookychiptune]

3:34-3:36 "First graders? That's us!" That kid sounds like Tommy Pickles. x3

[@Happytreefriendsfan3]

I personally think that this is the best episode of Recess, with "Economics of Recess" being a close second.

[@NessLover94]

This is exactly why I don't like to wear formal clothing. I'm afraid they might be ruined.

[@KirbyKips]

What are these teachers doing? Just sitting there? Why aren’t they taking the finished classes inside?

[@sw8330GKEEPER]

Light is better outside and they didn't have digital picture in the 90s.

[@D2attemp]

@@sw8330GKEEPER OP meant why was picture day also an all day recess. Normally picture day is just a regular day at school with only 15 minutes of recess and 45 minutes of lunch and classes temporarily interrupted for them to go take their photos, afterwards they would go back to class. The comment meant nothing about taking photos inside as oppose to taking photos outdoors.

[@Gunslade]

Love the ending so much. it makes me cry how nice it is. : )

[@camotophat]

or they could just go downstairs with the pale kids to stay clean. Just saying.

[@FireStormBaller]

This was before.

[@Agentshadowolf]

If they did then they wouldn't be able to hear the names being called to take the picture and they would have missed the opportunity to

[@sw8330GKEEPER]

They could have someone come in and tell them it is their turn. Seriously you think the teachers would have thought how much trouble they go through picture day just to stay clean.

Lawson huffed gas in the womb

[@jenaminton7009]

And in real life, they get the photos done early while the kids are in class and before lunch so that they can avoid getting messy. Though, my Mom was once gifted the greatest gift in the world. She got gifted with two packets of my school photos with no extra charge. The reason was that I was just coming from Recess in Kindergarten and had my jacket still on. So, the photographer ended up taking two photos. One with my jacket on and the other with my jacket off. They accidentally sent them both to my Mom.

[@JackRabbitSlim]

This is one of the best Recess episodes, it's beautifully played out, so many references to various movies that the creators of the show put in for their own and indeed the kids' amusement, now that I'm older it's great to see the things I kinda missed before, or only took them in subconsciously, there's definitely a 'Saving Private Ryan' theme going on, as well as various other war films, it's a great tale of friendship and sacrifice, but all done in a very realistic playground setting!

with this type of cartoon the clothes aren't just clothes but part of the character design as well. Spinellei's boots are about of her design and in the simpsions so is lisa's dress and barts shorts. Not just iconic or easy for animation but also design and brand recognition

So staying inside was out of the question LOL

[@martinsonneborn6820]

Probably since Ms. Finster called them with the speaker outside, inside it's probably hard to hear. Plus the photos didn't take long, was probably real time with the 7 min run

This episode makes me think about the times in 8th and 9th grade where I actually wanted to dress nice for school picture day. For both of my yearbook pictures for those years, I wore a short sleeved button up dress shirt tucked in, blue jeans, a brown belt, and my Nike sneakers. Not to mention that there were certain girls in my grade that I wanted to impress.
