I can hear this picture
- And it’s louder than the rest of the tape.

Coming to VHS in fall 1998!

You wouldn't download an exhausted teacher...

Not if I have anything to do about it.

Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill!
Bill Nye the science guy!
I have that intro song as my phone's ringtone. It was always a joyful day when my teachers would pull out the TV on a cart and play an episode of Bill Nye.

I wanna watch cosmos!
- Billllllllions and billllions

awww please let this be a normal field trip

Me sitting at the back of the room against the wall 40 feet away from the monitor, surrounded by 30 teenagers all whispering in the dark: ..... I can't hear the TV!

aww snap I hope it's ferngully
- We got to watch Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure once!
  Also, I had an extremely lazy English teacher who would show us TOS Star Trek episodes when she didn't feel like teaching. That was awesome.

magic schoolbus FTW

By the time the trailers end, class will be over!

Want me to dim the lights and get you an aspirin?

My 9th grade 2nd period experience.
- Oh wow, yeah. I was working, in a client's office. All work stopped at that point.

Why i can hear & feel that image vividly, like i was there....
Oh...god, thanks OP you made me remember my not so bright past

Sweet.

"We have our heading" "Here we goooooooo!"

I loved those Eyewitness videos with the intro flying through a CG museum. Still get nostalgic for them sometimes when TierZoo uses that theme song XD

I miss this shit

Voyage of the Mimi theme song intensifies.

The TV is not period correct. Source: 2000's kid
Edit: Neither is the VCR, it looks mid-late '80s
- So it's period correct for an underfunded middle school in the 00s
  
  lol maybe, VCR's are a bitch to service though. It probably would have been cheaper to replace it. I have no basis for that, just guessing. Feel free to call me out.
- Your school was well funded.
- I went to a well funded school in New England, this was period correct even as late as 2013. For VHS especially these carts were still in use, but starting in maybe 2007/2008 some teachers would use their computer + VGA projector setup for DVDs. Especially since there weren't enough carts to go around
