It’s odd I don’t remember the original Bloodhound Gang then, I do remember 3-2-1 Contact...did the Bloodhound Gang perhaps either replace or predate Mathnet? Because that’s what I remember—two faux-FBI agents solving crimes by triangulation and the fibonacci sequence and so forth.
ah, about...1991-1994, so that explains it nicely. Did you get Reading Rainbow and Where in the World is Carmen San Diego before and after, by any chance?
Did see Reading Rainbow, although I think this was later … late 80s?. We had Where In The World Is Carmen San Diego as a computer game, late 80s, also, I believe. The game was boring as sin.
Scooby Doo, absolutely. The mystery was always solved; the reason was always given.
How about The Bloodhound Gang on that PBS show Electric Company? Same formula as Scooby Doo.
Although admittedly this is not fiction, exactly.
I’m...assuming this isn’t the same Bloodhound Gang which went on to record The Bad Touch and Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo?
I believe the segment on the Electric Company is where that group derived its name. Although I’m not sure. No taste for that sort of thing.
checks wikipedia
you’re quite right =)

The Bloodhound Gang predated MathNet. They were a subshow of 3-2-1 Contact; MathNet was a subshow of Square One, which followed 3-2-1 by many years.
Thank you! I was completely mixing up Contact and Square One—it’s been too long.
Ah, the Angle Dance. So many memories...
Mathman, no! 7 minus 4 is not 4!
Aaargh! How could you do this? You almost NEVER win a level!
I loved Mathnet! ^_^ 1 1 2 3 5 -- eureka!
3-2-1 Contact—that was the name of that show—not the Electric Company. That’s the bad 80s hit, isn’t it …?
I don’t remember seeing anything called Mathnet. My 3-2-1 Contact memories are roughly 1980-1984, somewhere thereabouts. Yours?
