| Video Discription | [reposted to fix audio issue] Here's a complete broadcast of Atlanta-based SuperStation WTBS Channel 17's kids show, SuperStation FunTime, hosted by Jerry Homan and featuring Ron Kirk and Susan Baer. Also included at the end is the first 7 minutes of the following program, "The Space Giants" (which Chicagoland folks will remember airing on WSNS Channel 44 in the 70s) Includes: PSA for U.S. Forest Service - "Plant a Birthday Tree for any occasion" Talking plants promoting Super Station Fun Time for 7:30am and 2:50pm (Eastern time) Station ID / PSA for Department of Energy Hotline Opening of SuperStation Fun Time including titles (some of the opening music had to be reversed/degraded to avoid YouTube blocking - music is: "Happy I'm Happy" by Benny Golson [1978) (which can be heard in its entirety here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4o5e4Xh0goM) Part 1 of Encyclopedia Britannica film, "Weather Forecasting," documenting the early history of this field in this segment (at end of which is notice to "tune in tomorrow for Part 2") YouTube User "bigO! plabax" adds, "The jarring synth music heard at 2:24 and 8:36 was also used as opening theme music on two videotaped programs, "Health 3-4" and "Health 5-6" (for grades 3 to 6), produced and aired on Nebraska Educational Television back in the 1970s, and continued to air into the late '90s. Nothing like seeing '70s ETV in the '90s, along with good laughs! As a side note, when I saw this at school in the mid-'80s, the teacher often had to keep the volume down when the jarring music came on because it was really THAT loud! Even at a normal level! Yikes! 😂 As for the "Weather Forecasting" film, I saw that in its entirety one day in my sixth-grade science hour sometime around in March 1986. Yet TBS couldn't finish showing it. I guess the program staff just couldn't wait to get those cartoons on, whatever they want to do."
