[@oct484]

I remember being in kindergarden and the teacher has us watch this show.....Im 27 and STILL remember this show

[@RP752000]

the teachers loved to make us watching reruns of this show all the time, I think they were burned out

[@Gardening-MSC]

yeah, I remember john red feather , Vincent stcyr played that part. he was my father, I sure miss him, I sure enjoyed watching this. I remember doing the native American eagle dance for my dad on this show

[@RP752000]

that is pretty cool

[@amyhendricksen6376]

OMG....I thought I had imagined this show! I had actually called my local PBS station to see if they had any old clips, but the lady there pretty much told me there was no record that this show ever existed.

[@bootsuit31778]

Amy Hendricksen we watched this in our music class when I was in Elementary school!!

[@targetcxd]

oh man, i remember pretending I was sick a few times to watch this! nothing like a day of 3-2-1 contact, strawberry square, and letter people land!

[@jhillst]

You can definitely tell this was made in Nebraska.

[@shortcakemel]

Yay, I've been looking for clips from this show forever...Love everything made in Nebraska :) I also thought I was the only one who remembered it...thanks for posting this!

[@inspectah_gadget_]

oh my CHILDHOOD. I didn't imagine this show! Thank you!

[@Viscount]

I watched this in school along with reading rainbow, reverse the curse, and others. It was a simpler time back when we were are smaller and not have to worry about jobs, rent, the spit up stain on your shirt, etc.

[@misssiera311]

OMG IM SO HAPPY I COULD CRY! Ive been looking for a clip of this show forever! THANKS SO MUCH FOR POSTING!

[@eracism09]

Jingle and Skipper and Jan, Jan, Jan:) I never thought anyone would post this show on youtube, thank you!

[@raccooncityangel]

My family thought i imagined this show when i mentioned it a few years ago. No videos anywhere.

[@RP752000]

it is almost as if the producers are a shamed of it, to be honest, the show has very little educational value

[@anniekd57]

Dang, I used to watch this in kindergarten back around '87 or '88. I didn't think this would be on the internet, to be honest. Also, I forget they could sing. Surprise!

[@sarahscott4893]

Im not crazy.... use to watch this when i was three or four at my great grandmothers...nobody else seemed to remeber.... but letter people land rocked

[@RP752000]

The letter people were the best.

[@jrfury2659]

A great looking TV Set,

[@nathanjohnson8861]

[@cyyrious]

I remember they came to my school and I wanted the black dude to kick his heels to the side when he jumped...BUT didn't.........

[@sammymartin8390]

[@miguelsonofzeus]

A Nebraskan Sesame Street?

[@MIKECNW]

That's not Billy Preston is it?

[@cartunman]

MIKECNW no that's Jonathon Wayne Wilson. I worked with him at the University TV station in Omaha. He did local theater and was the star of Strawberry Square. It was recorded at NETV in Lincoln, Nebraska.

[@RP752000]

it looks like him

[@hoorayfailure]

i watched this shit in kindergarten...john redfeather...that's like calling the black guy, "octavius clayton enslavedson-brown."

[@RP752000]

lols

[@allisonb9268]

What

[@RP752000]

I worked at a Sam's Club in Omaha, Ne: the actors who played Jan, Shannon & Joey came in together looking for help with their club membership. Well, all 3 of these people(who were now grown adults) began acting lewd, loud and obnoxious. They kept talking about needing a cigarette or they were going to die, they acted like they were a little tipsy and they were grabbing or even grouping one another like they were intimately TOGETHER ! I could not believe these guys were the same people from the show, their behavior was appalling & perverse.

[@RedSiegfried]

Cool story, bro.

[@stormwulf117]

I'll take "This story is bullshit and it never really happened" for $500, Alex.

[@jrfury2659]

I don't believe these actors are related in real life, so I can't see such behavior being perverse.

[@RP752000]

@@stormwulf117 it would have happened in 2001 or 2000, and I guess I may have been a little uptight on the perverse comment, for all I know they just got out of bar at 11 in the morning. I do remember they were as rowdy as a bunch of Frat boys.
