Show Info
"Beakman's World is the smash hit in the Saturday morning lineup. Airing on the CBS network, it's the hands-down favorite of inquisitive kids. Based on the newspaper feature You Can with Beakman and Jax, created by Jok Church and distributed by Universal Press Syndicate, Beakman's World stars celebrated performance artist Paul Zaloom as Beakman. While Beakman responds to popular and unusual queries by performing hands-on experiments, he is joined by Josie (Lisa,Phoebe depending on the season), his bright young apprentice, and Lester the lab rat. Watching Beakman's World on their South Pole TV and interjecting comments and quips as Beakman struts his scientific stuff are Don and Herb, that humorous and charming Antarctic penguin duo.
By showing kids of all ages how to perform simple experiments using household items, Beakman's World helps kids discover for themselves how the world works."
