- Topics of Show 26 include the consonant B, the BR blend, and OW as in brown. In this show, Millie the Helper learns about the word "bottle", Mel Mounds and J. Arthur Crank cross paths, Broadway Bob treads the vaudeville stage, and Winnie sings "How is Howard". "Love of Chair" sees the boy taking a step and the last word is "barber".—Lucas Johnson
- This Season 1 episode starts off with the letter B as Lee Chamberlin plays charades with B occupations (barber, bullfighter, baseball player) and Broadway Bob (Rita Moreno) sings words ending with the letter B and the "ob" word family. Chamberlin and Morgan Freeman play a B-filled conversation between two bees: ("Buzz off, Ben! I'm a busy bee!") Also present is the famous skit in which Moreno plays milkman Bill Cosby's assistant in figuring out which B word is missing from the sign (hint: it's not "banana") and inadvertently coins a famous phrase: "Hey, you guyyyyys!" Meanwhile, Skip Hinnant has been writing some nasty things about Bob on the chalkboard wall, but who is this Bob he speaks of? From there it's on to the BR blend as Mel Mounds (Morgan Freeman) finds himself accidentally dialing J. Arthur Crank (Jimmy Boyd) who requests the "Brown Bread" song. Next, Judy Graubart sings the OW sound in the melancholy tune "How is Howard"... and accidentally knocks over a plant while doing so. Don't miss plenty of popular animations: the "Bob is Tall" skit featuring the voice of Mel Brooks, the "OW" installment in the 2001-inspired Monolith series, and the fairy-tale scenario in which a princess kisses a frog and turns him into a hopping, ribbiting prince! Lastly, it's over to Love of Chair in which the boy (Hinnant) takes a step... but is it the right step? No, it's the left step. Scanimate words include "bottle", "brother", and "flibble" (you'll find out what that means in Show 73!), and the last word is "barber".
