A long time ago, when I was 22, my first child was born. That kid grew up on a little Canadian kid's show called Polka Dot Door, produced by the TV Ontario network. And Dad, more often than not, sat through those shows with his little one. Nine or so years later when a brother, and a year after that when a sister came along number one son was moving on to Knight Rider and The Dukes of Hazzard. But there was a nice overlap where his siblings picked up where he had left off with Polka Dot Door. And Dad was right there to welcome them. So you're looking at a Polka Dot Door veteran. The show began in 1971 and ran to 1993. I didn't watch the full run but I did get in my fair share. The formula was pretty simple. A young male and female host, which seemed to change every week, sang songs, told stories, made crafts and generally did their best stimulate little brains. The show opened as follows... Imagination Day! Oh boy! ...

Ha! Love the Super Bowl one. We only watch it for the commercials, too. Well, I do enjoy the big game just so long it isn't a blowout. And I gots me some wings and veggie dip!
The Steelers?? Naw, I'm rooting for the Packers even though I don't know any of the stats on either team. They were my dad's favourite team.
Oh, and I hated when they always pre-empted the good commercials with Canadian ones. But, hey, you'll be able to get them online afterwards.
However, I am rooting for the Packers. They were Red Foremans's team and that's good enough for me.
But I gotta say the last one?
Totally me!
