ABC used to pad the start and end of their Saturday morning cartoons with cool stuff like Schoolhouse Rock, but back in 1978 they thought 2 suspender wearing dorks and t-shirts with their names on them would be great to feature answering questions from real kids. I hated the theme song, and even though I’d watch just about anything, I’d generally turn the channel when this duo hit the screen. Their heart was in the right place, I suppose, but kids are generally the last people that want to see a show by child psychologists!
Donna Drake, who played “Annie”, when on to have another role in the soap opera The Doctors in 1982, while Bing Bingham who played Alex went on to write the 2005 film “Faith of My Fathers” which was the story of John McCain’s days as a POW. You can visit Bing’s site here.

At the ripe age of 28, I wasn’t watching any kids TV in 1979. And I didn’t yet have any of my own. I had no idea there was such terrible stuff on kid’s TV.
