Favorite/Least favorite 90s edutainment titles? And why?

What did you like and why? My favorite is Broderbund Games and my least favorite was Reader Rabbit which even Dad hated. It was so linear and boring it was definitely developed by the finance people whom didn't have a CLUE what a child would think when turning it on. The other games the devs had some clue what a young child would think when turning it on to not be pushed away from it. BTW: We didn't actually own Reader Rabbit it was played on Club Kidsoft I think one of the earlier volumes. It was a playable demo and the chicken barn was the only area your allowed in.

The chicken barn was actually reused in a Barney game I recognized that same barn and setup on a Youtube playthru. Either Barney ripped it off from TLC or TLC ripped it off of the company that made the Barney game.

I never trusted that purple dinosaur.

The Big Yellow Bird seemed more trustworthy to me.

Easy, the most educational running show of the 90's was the Jerry Springer show. We got a glimpse of how Xed up the next generation was going to be. The crazy guests of that time are now our daily normal culture of this generation.
