Anyone remember the children's program from (I think) the early 80's called Powerhouse?

One step further, anyone have copies of any episodes?!?

Yep, I remember it. There was only like 13 episodes made and my PBS ran them over and over. The lead actress was Sandra Bowie.

That's the one! If you or anyone else knows where I can come up with some of these episodes, that'd be great. I know that the original publication company has them for sale but they want something like 25 bucks and episode.

I would love to see them again myself!

That and the other PBS series "High Feather"--about kids who attend a summer day camp.

Powerhouse, High Feather...

I'd also be interested in any footage of Under the Blue Umbrella (another 70's/80's PBS show).

Never heard of that one--what was that one about?

Honestly...I don't exactly remember. I do remember that there was another very similar show called Under the Yellow Balloon. I used to watch both on days when I got stay home from school sick. Those were the days. Price is Right in the morning...a few PBS shows in the afternoon...and all the 7UP and Jello a kid could ask for!
