@jcice3 TVOntario ran Canadian Sesame Street which ran from 1975-1990 and after that it became known as Sesame Park which ran from about 1999-2003. It was pretty much the same show but they had some segments in French rather than in Spanish. :)
Just curious - did TVO run the American PBS or Canadian CBC version of "Sesame Street"? - I grew up in New Brunswick - we didn't have access to TVO until the late 1990s when it was offered on Bell.
I watched Fables Of The Green Forest in the early 90s when it was on YTV, and called Friends Of The Forest. I'm 99% sure that "Johnny" was called "Rocky" in that one.
Wow, I don't even remember seeing "Sesame Street" on TVO ... I would have been about 3 at the time and watched it religiously. This must have been right before CBC started broadcasting it.
@golddustwoman83 No, CBC was always broadcasting Sesame Street until 1996, then after Sesame Park from 1996-2002.

@LeylandNational01 That would be Tonya L Williams who ended up on the Young and the Wrestless. :)

@TheRetiredtrucker Quite a few did actually, one girl who's name escapes me ended up a famous soap actress in the states.

I'd love to see 'Dear Aunt Agnes' again. So far, I've found a 3 minute clip from an episode, no theme songs.

Too bad we don't have quality kids programs like these any more.
