Saturday School: When I Grow Up (1988)

CBS launched this series of interstitals back in 1988. Somehow, since I only watched Superman as part of the CBS lineup with any regularity, I never saw this until today.

When I Grow Up was CBS' answer to One To Grow On over at NBC, but no celebrities were needed. Instead, CBS went with sponsorship from McDonald's.

Did you hear that The Banana Splits Adventure Hour is being adapted into an R rated horror film? Kind of weird to adapt an innocent children's comedy show into a dark edgy adult horror film. See? You can take something that was meant to be for kids and make it dark and edgy.
Here is the trailer by the way: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0R1-ZZTcTBY

I read about it a few weeks back, Steve. I haven't commented on it here yet, only because it doesn't belong here, but rather over at Land of Whatever.
