Even at 47, I still have fond memories of this show from watching it on WDCN in Nashville, TN. during the 70s/80s. whenever I wasn't in school, be it summer break or snow days. When you didn't have cable or a dish, your choices were a bit limited.😁 Still a great show.
Why must we mention the fact that there wasn't cable or satellite? For pete sakes there was not TV up until 25 years or more before this show was made.
This woman gave me the creeps as a kid and still does. Maybe because she was talking "All About You" and with her interests in our bones and other personal things, she just always creeped me out. I think the models of a person's internal organs that they show also freaked me out. Also, In the intro art, there's a guy banging a drum on his chest at 0:14, and I think he looks like a freaky skeleton. Does anyone else feel like he looks like a scary skeleton dude?
Christopher Sobieniak It is funny how many of the shows watched in Canada were from the states. More of it was teaching kids how to observe and think rather than what to think. 3-2-1 Contact, Square 1, Math Patrol, Land and Sea, Ripples, Inside Out, Thinkabout, Voyage of the Mimi, etc were all good stuff.
RavenRuled Down here, usually these shows were only played during school hours on blocks maintained by PBS stations for school use. That all went away in the 90's when the "PBS Kids" thing started.
She is still alive, and lives in Shelburne, Vermont. Here is a photo of her with her family and late husband, who died in November 2016: facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10206272631678186&set=picfp.1337649690.10206247988262116&type=3&theater
long live 70s-80s PBS and LMs AAY!!
I watched this in Brooklyn, NY in the early 80s and never forgot it. I loved the music, too. I hope to find the rest of the episodes someday.
OMG....that theme song brings back memories!!!

I'm from North Carolina & remember watching this when I was a kid. I love the little theme song. Ah, the nostalgia...
I'm 47 as well. I think the same way
Watched it with my sis on PBS 8 in Houston, TX between 1974 & 1980.

Watched this in the 80s in reruns. I was born in '80. We need a channel dedicated to old Tvo, Disney, nickelodeon and PBS shows.
Love it! Such nice memories of how childrens TV used to be so much more humane and uncorpratized.
A blast from my childhood past that will always last!!

OMG--the little theme song! I had forgotten about this show.
I remembered it as soon as I heard it.
This show gave me intense ASMR as a kid. I've been looking for this.
Now show us the episode on Canadian Puberty. LOL!
When I was little I always watched this show to see the "nice lady." Lol
We did, too!
@@HerAeolianHarp This lady always creeped me out in my childhood.
thank you! my search is over lol
Omg. Now that I know what ASMR is I totally felt it as a kid.
Tig Notaro is immortal

Technically, this show was produced by WGBH Boston down here in the US.

RavenRuled Some of them came down here as well like "Write On" and a few CG-animated physics programs TVO produced.

If the show was rebooted, then I wish Kobe Bryant would've hosted it. RIH my friend 🏀
Does anybody know if Louise McNamara is still alive? It's been so long since this show was on the air that I can't help but wonder about her?

On the one program of "All About You"Louise Mcnamara was in her barefeet and said her feet were cometable nice don't remember witch one is was.
Does anyone know if Louise McNamara is still alive today?
She is still alive, and lives in Shelburne, Vermont. Here is a photo of her with her family and late husband, who died in November 2016:
