Beginning in November of 1969, The Children's Television Workshop began producing the show on PBS. It featured Actors and kids along with Jim Henson's muppets (Jim is a Mississippi native like me) and was a general education show that tackled reading, arithmetic, language, culture, music and social interaction.
In 1978, PBS produced a primetime Holiday special that featured the cast on Christmas Eve.
