Whiz Kids premiered 42 years ago today. It was an adventure/detective series that only ran for 18 episodes starting in 1983, but made an impression on a lot of us lucky enough to catch it at the time.

Found this Monty Python's Life of Brian interview cassette at a thrift store. The thing won't play, but I am going to spend some time this weekend fixing it. Haven't found this online and would like to hear it.

"Just break it down into smaller steps!"

Cool. Now I have 42 tiny tasks I'm avoiding instead of one big task.

Thanks?

The Kid Should See This 🌈🪐✨Jun 19, 2025

💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: 🐸🚲 How did Kermit ride a bicycle when his puppeteer was hidden? This #video takes a look at the brilliant practical effects that brought Muppets into real-world settings before #CGI existed.

From mirror illusions to radio-controlled mechanisms, each solution shows how creative constraints generate ingenious #innovations. Jim Henson even spent three hours in an aluminum canister underwater to film Kermit in his swamp.
