Checkered Childhood

Big Bag Retrospective


Listen Later

Children's programming may be the last thing you think about when searching through Cartoon Network's Checkerboard Era catalogue of shows. However, one show proves that puppets can pack a punch full of education, creativity, and imagination when mixing in a few animated shorts in-between everyday happenings at the general store.

Join BDubs as he strolls through Main Street USA to visit Molly, Chelli, Bag, and the rest of the Big Bag gang to see through our cardboard tubes what this show really makes us feel when we look back on it and its ties to Sesame Street. We'll cover the show's origins, development, special episodes, and even some quirky merchandise associated with the short-lived show, so you too can grab your bag full of tricks and reminisce over 90s preschool-targeted TV shows all over again.

To watch some of the remaining episodes, head over to the Unofficial Big Bag YouTube Channel.
