Getting Schooled: Mulligan Stew (1972)

 Mulligan Stew was a 6 part miniseries produced by & for the USDA and its youth outreach arm, 4-H. The series was developed in 1971, and went to air a year later with just the 6 episodes, which would remain on PBS until 1981.

Not to be confused with a primetime series of the same name that came out five years later, Mulligan Stew, which takes its name from a meal of the same name, was built around a youth group that went by that same name.

Following is a sample open:


I'd imagine this was originally produced for schools, then offered to PBS.

No rating.
