Yeah Mathman was dumb in this one but this reminded me of Number Munchers and how you felt like an idiot when ate the wrong thing and this loud buzzard came on so EVERYONE knew you missed it. lol Having to make a decision within 3 seconds forced us to learn MENTAL MATH though. I loved it.
Holy crap! For years, I remembered the segment since it was a ripoff of Pac-Man, but I couldn't remember what PBS show it was. Thank you, YouTube and the Internet!
Mathman was a guilty pleasure when I was a child... Or more like, a frightening pleasure.
I looked forward to watching Mathman every time it was on, in fact, it was one of the only reasons why I watched Square One...
...But at the same time, it terrified the shit out of me and I'd always hide under my blanket, and trembled in fear the instant it came on, since I didn't know when to expect it. It was a love hate relationship.

I love math man and mathnet
Yeah he hardly ever won and got a free game maybe 3% of the time would he win. Wonderfull. Does any1 know where you can buy these? maybe craigslist? Plez help
You know I absolutely cannot believe that somebody would have copies of this show preserved and that they would upload it to youtube. But this is awesome! These mathman clips are hillarious.
My favorite part of the show! I loved the theme music, too! Too bad it and Carmen Sandiego aren't still on, those shows were the best! Maybe that's why I did well in math and geography. At least back then there was more on PBS that was decent than just Sesame Street, now it's crap (and so is education. Maybe if kids watched stuff like this they'd do better...)
I thought all I remembered was the theme song and Mathnet. I was wrong. I loved Mathman! Mr. Glitch was awesome! He always made me laugh with his deviated septum voice. Of course Mathman lost most of the time. He had to keep saying his name over and over so he would remember. That's also why he wears a helmet.
I think the only reason that glitch was able to eat mathman so quickly was because of his body shape glitch was able to cut corners while mathman couldn't
Mathman freaked me out too.. it's intense with glitch hovering above him by each problem, ready to KILL him! and he effed up so often, it was almost guaranteed to happen. and Mathnet was like the freaking twilight zone!
@jiyumes totally, what's the deal with that creepy tornado guy?? he sounds like a child molester (or i should say how i would expect a child molester to sound)
Same. But I have always remembered how to tell a million from a billion, how to read roman numerals, and how to do basic combinatorics because of the catchy little songs!
Well they would have put an Ohio State helmet on him, but then they realized he wouldn't even be able to add 2 + 2 so the Michigan helmet made it much more exciting...
I think he's only won 2 or 3 times. I used to watch this show all the time. I know the rectangles one he won, and I am aware of at least one other time that Mathman took it.
This is one of the quicker Mathman segments, along with "Even Numbers." This does not include the notorious "Decimals greater than one." Note that we see the chase from the beginning, with the window in the center revealed afterward.
The multiples of 6 in this game were: 6, 60, 66, 72, and 132.
6=1x6, 60=10x6, 66=11x6, 72=12x6, and 132=22x6.
