[DRUMMERMAN77]

you do not know how often I see how many tennis players in my neighborhood

[Kingklick3100]

Growing up with this episode, I now remember it. Im am now heading toward 30 years old now, I actually admire and support these people such as Barbara Walters, and Ralph Nader, though I had no clue at the time what they were. It is a beautiful thing.

[Jessyleppert]

A Game Show Host is a Person in Your Neighborhood.

[Buffro20]

[12StringGuitar]

I love how his voice is higher than the tennis player's

[sweetlife031]

Ralph Nadar is a weirdo lol

[hajimes2000]

Great stuff!

But would children understand this cynicism?

[NantoVision1]

@hajimes2000 This was a prime-time special aimed at getting adults to subscribe to PBS during the pledge drive.

[knighthollow]

this is really for kids...going to her place to play checkers...hehehe

nice one bob...

[A1l2l2e2n4]

Martina looks annoyed with Bob when he's not singing!

[KingMellow11]

@A1l2l2e2n4 Call me crazy,but Martina is kinda cute.

[gordogreat74]

I love the adult humor in this show!

[Babygirl83641]

"Making plans" LOL! Is that what they call it?

[England06miami]

I dont think Ive ever met a consumer advocate in my neighbourhood.... 

[ashiswaycool]

@England06miami I wish Ralph Nader was a person in MY neighborhood.

[wolfenklaue]

Haha @ Bob's "plans".

[whenulookmeontheline]

this is the version i grew up with :)

loved this as a kid.

it never gets old :D

[Fartingbellybutton]

at 4:36, Bob called Ralph Nader "Barbara" LOL.

[Misskayseeluvsu]

I remember us singing this song at the church daycare center that I went to. We'd sit in a circle and rock our heads from left to right while we sang. The people we sang about included: Fireman, Police Officer, Teacher, Baker, Doctor, Sailor, Farmer and I can't remember the rest.

[quizmaster85]

"Look at me! This is terrible!"

"I know. Your Aunt Mertyl knitted you a lemon."

Classic!

[Katzi]

@quizmaster85 If it wasn't a kids' program (and if Bob wasn't supposed to be so nice) I'm sure that Bob would've kicked Nader's butt!

[Garrettk41]

This is probably the first version of this wonderful song that I really became acquainted with.

[RealTime88]

Me too. And one my idols Barbara Walters is in this clip. I was a little boy maybe 4 or 5 years old when I saw this and I started watching her specials and 20/20 soon after.
