Muzzy (1980)

I was constantly afraid my mom would decide I should learn a language and buy this for me.

I watched this in French class in High School!

they showed this all the time on nick jr. when i was babysitting

Couldn\'t understand a word. Failed to teach me french at it\'s best, and what\'s it\'s name for? Muzzy? What\'s a muzzy?

I\'ve been attached to Muzzy since the time my mom ordered the program so she could learn French herself. In fact, we\'ve still got both versions at home- French AND English.

\"A, E, I, O, U... je t\'aime.
A, U, O, I, E... tu m\'aimes.
A, E, I, U, O... en moto.
I, O, U, E, A... on y va.
A, U, I, O, E... tous les deux.
A, E, I, O, U... je t\'aime.
A, E, I, O, U... m\'aimes-tu?\"

While it\'s true that French kids wouldn\'t need an instructional video- before the lady tells us what we are seeing, all we know is that kids are watching a video in French, and then speaking French, which could happen if they actually were French and were just watching tv.

This commercial is on again but the \"i can speak freanch\" is replaced with \"i can speak spanish.\"

Otherwise it\'s the same commercial.

I watched this in my 6th grade French class. I couldn\'t understand a word they were saying without instruction from my teacher. It failed to teach me French.

they aren\'t native French speakers? I\'m Shocked!

This was even on in the early 2000\'s. Its been on all the time.

Its quite easy to tell that those kids aren\'t French because if they were really French then they wouldn\'t need an instructional video showing them how to speak French so the woman in the beginning of the commercial must think we are a bunch of idiots.

What I want to know is how anyone could understand what Muzzy (I assume he was the hairy character) was saying in the opening to confidently repeat it....

This was on early morning Nick all the time in the late 80\'s/early 90\'s...

I remember this so vividly. When was this aired from? I remember seeing it from the early 90\'s all the way up to about maybe 2003.

I remember that commercail lasted until the DVDs came out.

I thought this was the 90s Silly me

I always wanted this product. Did it work though?

Hehe. One of my friends used to claim that she knew how to speak French because of this, but all she could say was \"Je suis les une fille.\" Obviously, she only watched the commercial, which was pronounced incorrectly anyway.

Wow! It\'s THAT old?

Man. I never knew how old this was...they showed this way into the 90\'s as well

Strangley...I wasn\'t scared of this as a child, but it frightens me now!!

I had Muzzy in English and French..... I still only speak English. The story was..... interesting.

They showed this commercial for a LONG time.
