ABC AfterSchool Specials Intro

[FBLA2CA]

....or remember getting home from school and anticipating your regularly scheduled programe,(for me it was Super Friends) and this comes on!!, I would be like; "damn"!! forgetting that they have been promoing it all the past week! ....I mean,to miss one Super Freinds sucks when your 10yrs.old. But then you went ahead and watched it and ended up liking it,because it had a good message, while you could have very well changed the ch.,but you didnt! it was awesome!! With oreos n milk of course!

They also did another one of the Weekend Specials titled "The Bollo Caper", which showed a rare spotted leopard, who's an endangered species, travelling all the way to DC to lobby lawmakers to pass legislation to keep him and his kind from becoming extinct. Really had a lot of heart, a lot of conviction (not mention, hilariously funny).
