I think they should:



Computer Scooter and Mr. Chips was a series that was part of Schoolhouse Rock:

Computer Scooter and Mr. Chips introduced kids to PCs. I think the series should be revived and revamped for todays kids, which is the Internet crowd - most kids today use the Internet.

Would you agree?

Did anyone here ever watch this show? I am sure some of you people were kids in the '80s.

This is Mr. Chips. What you're watching is an abomination. All its copies should be destroyed. It should definitely NOT be remade.

@izzythepush,
Apparently you know very little about 1980s CHILDREN'S SHOWS:

COMPUTER SCOOTER AND MR. CHIPS was a SEGMENT on SCHOOLHOUSE ROCK that introduced children to computers. This was LONG before the INTERNET was commericalized and introduced to the public.

@JGoldman10,
I must admit that I didn't watch many kid's shows in the 80s, but that thing should stay in the 80s. It gives me the creeps.

You HAVE to remember PERSONAL COMPUTERS were a novelty in the '80s- they were very primitive by TODAY'S STANDARDS.

They should REVAMP the show and UPDATE it. Computers have progressed GREATLY since then. The stuff you can do on computers NOW could only be DREAMED OF in the '80s.
