Favorite Schoolhouse Rock Vignette??

[Ghost_Host_9991]

Ok...I know this is gonna date my ass (30 yrs old) but we were talkin about this at work, so I'd figure I'd ask the same question here...What's your favorite Schoolhouse Rock vignette?

For those here too young to know, Schoolhouse Rock used to come on TV during the commercials of ABC's Saturday morning cartoons and the animated musical bits with the catchy toons each taught something about science, government, or grammar.

Now it's a tough decision, but I still think my favorite was Interplanet Janet...(she taught you about the solar system).

God, I could never pick just one favorite, I love 'em all so much! But I think I can pick a top five:

The Four-Legged Zoo
Naughty Number Nine
Interjections!
Sufferin' Til Suffrage
Get Your Adverbs Here

"Conjunction junction whats your function?" is my favorite. ^^

Then theres the more controversial Family Guy version-

"Vagina gina whats your function?

Taking in the sperm and shootin' out babies!"

Interplanet Janet, she's a galaxy girl,
A solar system Ms. from a future world,
She travels like a rocket with her comet team
And there's never been a planet Janet hasn't seen,
No, there's never been a planet Janet hasn't seen.

She's been to the Sun, it's a lot of fun,
It's a hot-spot, It's a gas!
Hydrogen and helium in a big, bright, glowing mass. It's a star, it's a star! So Janet got an autograph!

Mercury was near the Sun so Janet stopped by,
But the mercury on Mercury was much too high, so
Janet split for Venus but on Venus she found
She couldn't see a thing for all the clouds around.
Earth looked exciting, kind of green and inviting,
So Janet thought she'd give it a go.
But the creatures on that planet looked so very weird to Janet,
She didn't even dare to say hello.

It's a bird, it's a plane! Why, it must be a UFO, but it was:
Interplanet Janet, she's a galaxy girl,
A solar system Ms. from a future world,
She travels like a rocket with her comet team
And there's never been a planet Janet hasn't seen,
No, there's never been a planet Janet hasn't seen.

Mars is red and Jupiter's big
And Saturn shows off its rings.
Uranus is built on a funny tilt
And Neptune is its twin,
And Pluto, little Pluto, is the farthest planet from the Sun.

Oddly enough, I saw Conjunction Junction recently on TV, aired as a filler between programmes 😀 It was cute and catchy, to say the least, but it took weeks for me to get the tune out of my head, lol.

I know Val, its really catchy and hard to forget.
