I was also on Romper Room in the Quad Cities - I would love to find the episode. How did you get yours?

@RJD22011 - My mom got copies of the episodes I was in on VHS just after the shows ran back in the 80's. I don't know anywhere that they have them online except for random clips like the one I have uploaded. I have 4 full episodes and I think my husband's folks have an episode from a different date when he was on as a kid! What dates were you on, do you remember?

@emery1978 - OMG! RANDOM!!! I am actually in this video as well. Crazy! Do you have the 4 full episodes you can upload or send me?

[emery1978]

@jeffrome1979 - Really?? That is too random! Yep, I have the full episodes. I'm not sure if you're in the other ones with me but I can check. Are you still in the QCA? Send me a message about getting a copy, I don't know that I could upload something that big as I don't have it all digital, just on DVD.

@ emery1978 I ran camera from 9/1983 until 1985. I married the director of the show, and we almost lived happily ever after. :) You look adorable.

I hope you had fun on the show! It was shown live, so it was really pretty intense on our end of the cameras, but I loved it.

I was a camera operator for this show for the last 2 years it was on the air. I remember painting the stools the kids are sitting on. It seems like forever ago. Sadly, the show was gone before I had kids of my own.

@beagledor Thanks for your comment! I was the little girl to the left of Miss Peggy. I think I got to be on the show several times so I probably saw you when I was 4 or 5 years old depending on what years you worked.
