Subject: 80s Nickelodeon, esp. Pinwheel
Okay, what's the deal with the conspicuous absence of 80s Nickelodeon on the web? I haven't been able to find anything. I saw a link once to a "Today's Special" site, but I got kicked offline every time I tried to go there. I suppose I'm exaggerating about Nickelodeon; I have found "You Can't Do That on Television" and "Danger Mouse," but I want to find "Today's Special" and "Pinwheel"!!! "Pinwheel, pinwheel, spinning around/ Look through my pinwheel and see what I found,/ Pinwheel, pinwheel, where have you been?/ Hello and how are you and may I come in." Remember the clip in Pinwheel that was claymation with the red kid and the blue kid and they wore the big hats? They could roll around on the brims of their hats like wheels. What about that green puppet named Ebenezer who lived in somebody's basement? And on "Today's Special," remember the lady named Jody who was the star of the show? And her weird jumpsuit? And the mannequin that turned into a person after the department store closed?

I don't remember Pinwheel but I used to love Today's Special. Thought I was the only one. I used to like that mannequin and I remember that jumpsuit. Never tried looking it up though. If I do and I find a link I'll let you know.
