Can I get a like for all my fellow 80’s kids that didn’t have cable so this show was Our little lives!!!
When I was a kid I use to watch this show everyday after school on PBS.
Same!!
Ditto. It was a must
Same here
Same here as well. This brought back memories.
Me too. I also remember Mathnet.
Wow this brings memories when I had no obligations, no mortgage, bills, etc, lol
Those were the days
It sure does! I was in 3rd grade then.
@@sweetcinnamonpnchkin Ah, yes! My sentiments exactly 😊
@The Mandalorian No argument there.
Life was fun then...
37 years old, watching this. I've learned more in a few minutes than I ever remember learning in school. That's a sign of good "lesson structure" in an educational show
This show was everything. Absolutely everything. I never knew Black People let alone other Black Kids were into science the way I was. One of the many, many reasons I still give to PBS.
They intentionally reached out to me, and brought me in. I'm grateful. My Kids will be as well.
Best comment ever, Here here! Well said.
You can come to the barbecue.
why did you capitalize "black" "people" and "kids?" lol
@@hypnos9336 - I don't reply in detail to people who are afraid of their own faces, let alone showing it to anyone else.
@@HalfGodHalfManYourWelcome Good point. I'm also afraid of people who don't know the difference between "you're" and "your."
I guess Science is more important than Language.
OMG, my teacher use to let us watch this every day in junior high and do a story about it, I use to hate it but loved the shows, funny 😃😂😀now I’m 46, I was 12 back then, miss the 80’s
Back in a time when teachers actually taught instead of converting!
@@GUNMETALGUYUSAno one is converting u
PBS was such a joy all day when I was at home "sick". ;)
Definitely a productive use of a "sick day." My mom was too slick to fall for that one when I was a kid, although my actual sick days would be spent reading a book or playing a game on my Playstation. Not as productive, but fulfilling at least.
Simple times and the people look so much happier. Watched this show and searched for it to show my kids. Hope everyone on the program lived a good life.

Totally. My mother was a teacher, and myself born in mid 70s...321 Contact, the Electric Company, and many trips to the Shed Aquarium, Field Museum, and Art Institute in Chicago, what a blessing compared to today!
Watching this made me mourn for the past, good times that need to return.
RIP Robert Guillaume
aka Eli Vance of Black Mesa
Oh my lord you guys! This show was so amazing back in the day! I learned more by watching this than I did in actual science classes
Same
Oh man the feels! The opening CTW crawl and Moog synth with the lead in 3-2-1 Contact intro. I am 5 again! :-)
I still prefer the electric shock shining logo.
It's always amazing to me what the brain can do via nostalgia and how it can make you feel and remember things by things such as a TV show I used to watch every day as a kid.
So true my friend! I am so old now but watching this brought back fond memories. Life was great back then.
From a simpler happier time
When there were entertaining and educational shows for kids. The value of this program cannot be overstated.
OMG You are making me feel my age!! I haven't seen this show in forever
And to think the cute girls on this video have been pumped silly. They worn out all dry in the koch now
@@crackpipejoe3508 She's dead, so you're going to have to lend me yours who walks with hanging flaps 😂
@@mobilephonesgettingtoobig3990 Dank Nuggz got pwned!
@@mobilephonesgettingtoobig3990 Apparently the comment by the other person was deleted lol so what was said out of curiosity?
I love VHS tape lines on the side..👍😉
Made me feel old when i realized how old this show was but the feel good memories are worth it ❤
I didn’t discover 321 contact until 1988. This and square one were awesome.
Mathnet!
I remember 3-2-1 prior to that. As soon as I was getting into Square One, our PBS affiliate started acting funny and stopped airing it for a while.
That’s it! Square one... i was recently trying to remember the name of tht show... thx homie 😎
PBS use to have great educational shows . I don’t know about now. But I remember learning so much watching them on my old black and white TV.
Speaking as someone who has helped a single mom with her kids, it's just a bunch of garbage programs for toddlers, plus Sesame Street. They really went downhill.
I enjoyed it back in the day and alot of tv Ontario shows on PBS!!!!!
The theme song to this show is as iconic as much as it is nostalgic 🏆
3-2-1……..CONTACT!
Watching this when I was 6, I didn't realize how young the beautiful Liz was. It seems like children's programming like 3-2-1 Contact, Electric Company, and Mister Wizard wouldn't hold attention spans of today's audiences, especially children.
@samgod ya🔨 nailed it !
Why can’t we have more kid friendly shows like this?
powers that be take such delight ruining future generations
The best theme song of any show in history!!!!!
So nostalgic. Listening to the theme song, it magically transports me 40 years back in time.
I loved this show. Too bad kids today grow up on mindless nonsense.
I agree with you 👍
So nostalgic. I remember watching this show in science class at school when I was 10. I'm 50 now :-)
Same here!!
used to copy BASIC programs out of 3-2-1 Contact magazine as a kid. Quality content that inspired countless STEM careers, these folks are heroes.
I didn't know about the companion magazine until I read some of the comments on the other videos.
This show brings it all back! We watched everyday. Excellent show!
About 15 students were left at the parking lot, forgotten and never picked up by either the bus nor the Volkswagen. I wonder what happened to them.
Her uncle is cheap, only buying a single gallon of gas!
This was filmed in or around Yonkers, New York. The school bus is owned by the Amberwood Coach Company which is based in Yonkers.
I absolutely loved this series growing up!!!!!
Absolutely loved this show and the Bloodhound Gang!!!!
Awesome show! Thanks to Children's Television Workshop!
These shows were made for us to think outside the box and make innovative products and live life with purpose and meaning make the world a better place.
These put the vision in television 🙏🏼
Nice to watch 321 contact again after all these years
How many of you wants to go back to the 80s?
I'm so old I remember this lol
When this show came on my life as a kid elevated!
The reason this is not on DVD? Someone might learn something. Oh no. Can't have that.
They should play this on Nick at Night for all us X'ers and Millennials! LoL
About 15 years ago, Noggin would play this show regularly. That's how I saw it.
I remember watching this episode as a kid
I used to watch this in the UK at the weekends in the early 80s with The Red Hand Gang. The US fed us so many great kids shows at that time I grew up almost speaking with an American accent!
Used to love this. 46 now.
Michael Abercrombie so did I, and I'm 46 as well
Who didn't like this show?
Used to watch this here in New Zealand in the early 80s. Ah nostalgia. Damn you adulthood lol.
Ty for posting. 🤩👍🏽👍🏽🌹 one of my favorites...especially the bloodhound gang. 💎
Team Trini.... HUGE CRUSH!
How come I'm about to try that bread recipe! LoL I watched this as a 7 year old back in the early 80s. What an awesome flashback!❤️
It seemed like 3/4 of the time they would play the Bloodhound Gang intro but then say there was no episode this week.
At least those piggies could walk and turn around.
I’m surprised they mentioned tanning was bad for the skin back in 1980. 3-2-1 Contact was ahead of its time!
The original cast was the show everyone loved. I wonder what ever happened to the three teens in it....
I miss these days. So fun. 43 now. Not so fun days anymore.
I completely remember the Bus vs the compact car segment. I probably haven't seen it or thought about it since 1981. But as I watched this I remembered everything almost perfectly. I knew when the car was going to run out of gas etc. Pretty amazing.
Bus girl was so F'ing smug about the effectiveness of the bus........but what bus girl didn't acknowledge was that the bus and the car had vastly different applications......no way would bus girl use a bus as a daily driver...also what car girl was really after was that riding on a school bus SUCKED
@@MrFluffykat I'm pretty sure bus girl was an actor and didn't give two shits after her check was cut.
@@TheChiefSteel that's prolly very true.....my comment reflects my attitude when I first saw this back in the spring of 1980
This brings back so much memories. This was the time when learning was fum. It's got that awesome catchy them song.
From now on I will say fum
@@archlich4489 Hey That's mine. I stole that first from Patrick Star.
The song just popped into my head for no reason...now I'm watching an episode
Wow my childhood is back. I had this theme song in my head and I had to look this up! I was 10, these “Kids” have got to be in there 60s now. I wonder whatever happened to them. I use to have a crush on one of the girls. Loved this show.
I enjoyed this show as a kid and am just now realizing the baby in the intro is over 40 years old.
I was one when this episode aired on TV so I don't remember this particular episode but I do remember the intro to this show. watched this show religiously for years lol
????
3-2-1 Contact aired on PBS from 1980 to 1988, with reruns airing for 4 years until September 27, 1992. Reruns resumed the next year in 1993 on commercial television, with All American Television handling syndication. It later ran on Noggin (a joint venture between the CTW and Nickelodeon) from 1999 to 2003, and lastly on Nickelodeon from September 5, 2000 until January 24, 2003.
Here we are 2022...
I still love this show!
Been watching since the beginning
Making me feel like a kid again. I was 9 and this was a daily staple in my life. Thank you so much.
I remember this, and a few other PBS shows, my preschool and elementary school teachers would always play for us before class.
I loved this show
20:16
Bloodhound gang
you're doing the lord's work
The days before reality tv and social media with quality programming that stimulated the mind…
Man I remember watching this as a kid, great educational show. Miss those days….
I was 11 years old when contact got me...lol when am back from school always glue to my dad old JVC black and white tv and living a life without responsibility, and the moral value of teaching and educating kids on tv was a virtue. I cry for the generations of kids now on what they watch now.
THIS was television.
Actor Leon W. Grant, who portrayed the character Marc on this show, died at the age of 64 in May 2023 in Hawaii.
Dang, didn't know that. I remember him from "Beat Street."
@@billywall7752 Grant had a rough life, getting into drugs and alcohol abuse, trouble with the law, stints of homelessness. But in the last five years or so, he got his degree in counseling and seemed to be pulling himself together.
That intro song is such a slapp on the nostalgia button
Lisa looks like Dana Plato but is Liz Moses.
Wow, she does.
Oh my 80s. When life was simpler.
I miss the shows when we were young they just feed our kids an grandchildren bull crap now watching this makes me happy an sad 😔
Crazy! By today's standards!! The handling of the piglets to a slaughter house!!
My mom loved this show and the 80's!
Loved this show growing up. Owl TV was another good one too.
Watched this over-the-air on PBS in school when it was on. We had to schedule periods around the air times of PBS programs (pre-VCR's). Processed food, pigs, goo, poor diet advice, pretty typical 3-2-1 Contact stuff. II had forgotten about this show.
Good Lord it's been like 38 years since I last saw this.
I remember having the biggest crush on Lisa and Trini.
Thomas R. Skidmore same here
Yup, I like "Trini" when she played the candy girl in The Warriors. Oh, and "Ricardo" from the Bloodhound Gang was in The Warriors too (RIP).
Yep same here had a crush on Lisa and thought Trunk waz cute to. Oh the days, 11 years old such fun.
Love the intro!
I used to watch this in grade school back in early 80s.
I totally forgot about this show until someone mentioned it on Reddit. Total nostalgia...
Who's the blond gal in the Bloodhound Gang episode? She's hot. The black girl looks like one of my co-workers. And the black guy looks like Commander La Forge from Star Trek The Next Generation. And Lisa Moses oh my is she HOT. Oh the good days. The music in car vs bus sounds like music from my Commadore 64's game Defender of The Crown, love it.
Thanks to CZcams we can go back in time. Were would we be without CZcams? Thank you.

@@amiyarose9140 thank you for the reply.
In the intro song, they pet the kitty right at the chord change. That was the first music lesson I ever learned
I watched this from 1985-88 or age 3 to 6 loved it waz my favorite pbs show
tv was a million times better 40 years ago
Taking me back this was my show!!
This version of 130 watch broadcast between 1990 and 1992 because Show 129 never reran on PBS after 1987. The same thing went Show 104. So when Show 105 reran between 1990 and 1992, some scenes where removed to make room for the conclusion of The Bloodhound Gang's "Case of Princess Tomorrow".
Loved this as a kid,never realized Ricardo played in the warriors until now,lol
Abdus-Shaheed Kaaba I did, but I didn't know Trini (real name: Ginny Ortiz) was in it as well. She played the girl operating the newsstand who got the candy bar thrown at her by Rogues Leader, Luther.
Bring back so many memories as a child👍🏿 do anyone remember The Electric company I think it came on after 321 contact
Awesomeness
All we need now is a Sweet Pickles commercial
The children on here are respectful well dressed and well mannered.
I missed 3-2-1 Contact on most of the PBS stations. It's a production of the Children's Television Workshop. It is known as the Sesame Workshop.
Brings back memories.
*sniffle* I'm not crying. YOU are!
Glad I was born in '79... saw this from '83 to '90... kids nowadays aint learning 💩 afterschool..
They to busy watching Paw Patrol. Children's tv is more concerned about selling toys than teaching.
This brings back memories. 3 2 1 contact. God brings back to my childhood. Too bad you have to grow up. But good memories.
They NEED shows like this on tv today. I’m sickened by most everything out there today. Why not use the air waves for something that edifies the mind?
Rip Marcelino Sánchez
I can't say contact without humming that opening song.
