I remember this. I've been looking for this for decades. I've had palabra jot. Stuck in my head, too. And Pinwheel and Today's Special. I miss the eighties. Television is so NOT educational, these days. It's about naked chicks and fart jokes. Not saying that I don't like it but NOT all day and as my only option. Even the news managed to become a tabloid, sad... PALABRA JOT FOREVER!!!!
I'm 34 years old and haven't seen this since I was in 3rd grade. However that damn 'palabra jot' has stuck with me this entire time. I totally wanted to join that club when I was a kid.
@tillig1, I have to agree with you, because i have two nieces, and they're 10 months old now, I hope when they get older, I'm going to introduce these old pbs shows like this one to them. so that they'll enjoy them, like i have before them.
@joskie618 I regret it too. but this was one of the reasons why I love to write. this and The Electric Company. I'm 35, too and what's sad is they don't educational television as good and groovy as they did in the seventies and eighties.
I actually did send in an ending once, and I got my palabra jot card too :) i wish I still had it.

Wow 1978 I remember it in the early 80s but I only saw on bloody episode. The creepy one where all the kids spewed glue all over themselves.

What happens next is the Ernie comes by and puts a volume control knob from an old radio on Bert, and gets scolded for eating cookies in bed.

Can you get Wordsmith by any chance? I really loved that show. The guy who hosted it made his own wikipedia page; look him up.

I really wish they'd release these on DVD. Now that I have my own kid, I would love to share with her. I learned so much from RB Bug.
