Some Tuesday Nostalgia

In today's nostalgia moment, I am going to run another set of opening credits, this time from PBS's Square One, another show I remember fondly. Being one of the three channels our pre-cable television received, I find it strangely ironic that watching Square One was probably the one time in my life I enjoyed math. (Point being I haven't taken a math class since high school and the last one I took was pre-Calculus.) "Mathnet" is second, also part of Square One and responsible for introducing "fib" into my vocabulary.

The opening credits (excuse the poor quality):


MATHNET! The story you are about to see is a fib, but it's short, the names have been made up but the problems are real...

Just. Stop.

OKAY. I just have to point out that I POSTED ABOUT SQUARE ONE/MATHNET LONG BEFORE ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY DID (today) AND WHILE PERHAPS IT WAS FOR A LESS RELEVANT POST (blah blah, it's Square Root Day, and I was writing about my nostalgia for PBS) I AM TOTALLY ON THE PULSE OF THINGS.

See here for my original post. Dated March 25, 2008. THAT IS A YEAR AGO.

See here for EW's post today.

And all the posts in between where I whine about my sad dream-crushed future.

On a side note, I am thinking I need to get over my "woe is me" moment and do some more of those fun nostalgia posts. Hold please...
