I remember once hearing a black female comedian saying, "Ever notice how Miss Sally on Romper Room never said as she was looking through the magic mirror 'I see Tawana, Keisha, Monigue, LaShonda, Tyrone, Antoine ..." Lol.
@@Jh49er Me too. Phoenix Az 1974...I think. I barely recall the TV show but know my 4yo self thought...I really liked it "when I was younger". Lol. I had some toy of yellow cups you walked on with straps to hold so you walked a few inches higher. Seems weird now but I mainly liked them because they were from romper room. I guess I liked bees. Haha 🐝
I agree wholeheartedly my friend. If only we could have had the tech then which we have now. And still keep the innocence of the time. It would have been glorious. Recording our lives of the 60's for posterity. But, yes, at least those echoes of the past exit in some form we can relish. Take care!
I did too.....I think I figured out that she simply called out a random list of names....odds are someone out there matched the names...and if not it wasn't a big deal.....:)
I heard my name for the first time and I'm about to turn 50. I got every day in the 70's to hear my name called and it never was until today. God is GOOD!
In 1960 I attended kindergarten. I would go to school and while in class, I was looking for the cameras in front of the classroom because I thought we were being filmed.
I see Imani, Ebony, Shanice, Deja, I see Precious, DeShawn, Willie, Reginald, Jamal, I see Kiara, Darnell, Travon, Alexis, Raven, I see Demetrius, Darius, Terrance, Andre, Asia. I see London, I see France, I see someone's underpants!
1968 I was 4 years old when I use to watch this show LOL wow, I loved this show. I used to listen for my name in the magic mirror, and I have a common name too :-) never heard it lol
I Agree thinking Miss Ann could see me!! Didn't hear my name but my name was so unusual when I was growing up That's Alright Miss Ann I know you're talking to me too ❤ by the way she does say Larry this clip (between 38-42 seconds) I remembered the lesson "don't be a don't be" This has stayed with me even today at age 67 Thank You Romper Room Forever..
I DO REMEMBER THIS WONDERFUL TEACHER!! It was a magical time for my brothers and sisters. We honestly believed she could see us through that magical mirror!
Lancelot Link Me too! I was an avid watcher! Im thinking in my adult mind, that perhaps parents sent their child's name in? Idk.. I got to got to go to the Bozo show! 😠 BUT I'm still ticked.. lol
You went to see Bozo? Im jealous Michelle ; ) Yes it was rigged like everything on TV. I saw Captain Kangaroo and Mr Green Jeans at my local shopping mall LOL was so excited as a 5 year old : )
This feature Margaret LLoyd - Miss Mary Ann King was another host that would pull this scrying pantomime in the late sixties. She had the most pretty smile imaginable, with eyes full of lovely game that would enchant any toddler. - fond memory.
Omg. When I was 5 I waited and hoped she'd see me and say my name. 😂 One day, she did. I really believed she could see kids in that magic mirror. #nostalgia
Now, I know what that visual swirl thing I kept remembering from very young childhood was!! Thanks! Did you know, that instrument doubled as a hair styling tool for her bubble hairdo? 😉 J/k. Wow! Childhood memories from when I was really little!
Finding this recording was an emotional corrective experience for me! I always felt sad because the teacher didn't say my name during Magic Mirror time - but in this recording she said my name! :-) LOL.
Story time about my Mom when she was a kid: when my mom was a kid she watched romper room and she believed the lady could see her, my mom's name is Deana and it's a rare name, she waited for the lady to say "I see Deana" for years. And only met two people who was named Deana. Today she hates romper room and the lady because she never said her name, the lady ruined her childhood
When I was 10 my hometown ABC affiliate started a local Romoer Room.The host was a real hayseed and was lousy.I along with some of my friends watched it for a laugh.
I am watching our 7 year old doing his zoom classes and it reminded me so much of the magic mirror from Romper Room when she was greeting her zoom students asking them how was their day.
I used to watch this when I was a pre schooler, very little remembered though, show must have been pretty mild to have zero memories, lol. Maybe a longer clip will unlock some trauma? I know my name never got called thats for sure, Ralph. Alka Seltzer used it a lot though, oh the trauma of growing up with that name, lol. I can't believe I ate the whole thing, You ate it Ralph.
I used to watch this show as little kid. This one goes back further than me though. My romper room lady didn't have a beehive. I'm digging it though ☺️ Edit: oh wait a sec I get it. Romper room had that bee mascot. I'm guessing the beehive plays into that. Clever girl 🤠🦖
I remember an episode my young cousin was watching in the 80s, she had a kid on there who was bouncing a ball and making a lot of noise, the 3rd time she asked him to stop she did it in a stern voice and he clocked upside the head with the ball, I almost passed out laughing.
What year did this episode air??? She said my name!!! I remember telling my mom she said my name & she didn't believe me. If this was THAT episode, I am gonna fall out! 😂🤣😅🤣😂
@medicalxxx8 contact the studio where they appeared, it is possible it will be in the archives, you would need at least an approximate date and of course their names. An exact date would of course make the search faster. Some stations keep those old broadcasts forever, can't hurt to call them.
When I was little, I sat every day, waiting for her to see me through the magic mirror, and say my name. She never did . BUT, just now I went to show my 10 year old the magic mirror from when I was a kid. Guess what?!!! SHE DID SAY MY NAME, IN THIS VIDEO!! Finally at 51..SHE SAW ME! HAHAHA.
My understanding is when she passed on she awakened in a tunnel and kept floating thru towards a very beautiful white light where she came out and the prince of darkness was waiting holding a mirror and only said," I see YOU Margaret!" 👹
You can hear her put down the solid mirror and pick up the hollow one at 0:03. They would always call out the name Christopher, but they would never say my name of Kristine or Kris. Miss Janie from Pittsburgh was my favorite.
Every show , she breaks out the mirror that becomes a radio. She says call names . The names repeat , but no last names . Must be a cipher in names. My mind sees patterns and I found a odd one in a kid's tv show...
👉 WOW! That was longer than most classroom role calls.... was she reading the phone book LOL!? Never once heard my name... not even in that litany! Thanks for posting!
I remember watching Romper Room on a station out of Dallas when I was about 5. Archway cookies was a sponsor and they always served them during storytime. I pestered mom to buy some so I could have my cookies and milk along with the other kids on the show. Alas, it was another childhood disappointment. The cookies pretty much sucked.

Only late Baby Boomers and Gen X remember this show.
I was born in 1962, grew up watching and waiting for her to call my name and she never did.
Born in '74'. Yes i remember.🐝
I was on Romper Room in January 1966 in Phoenix Arizona. Our teacher was Miss Joanne. And yes, I was a good DO BEE! What Memories!👍
I too appeared on romper Room in November 1969 with Miss Nancy as our teacher on channel 7 in Bangor Maine

Me too in Phoenix in the early 70s with Miss Joanne. I don't remember it at all but saw a picture once. I wish that footage would resurface.
@@CLWettstein22 How cool! Thanks for that, are you still in the Phoenix area? Wish we could talk sometime.
If it weren't for TH-cam, my childhood would be gone forever!

When I was 5 I really believed she could see me.
Our computers at home now have the capabilities of the magic mirror for real.
she only ever saw me once
Me too
Wait You mean she cant ?
Same at 0:25!
I'm 56 years old and I'm STILL waiting to hear her call my name!!
lol
I see Tiger in the Woods
I’m 61 and she never mentioned me once!! ❤
I love this show back in the 1960s. I was so excited when she read my name on my birthday as my mom said she sent in my name.
I loved being a Doobie. One time she said my unusual name, Charmaine ! I was happy for weeks. Thanks for posting these. OMG what great memories!
I've always loved that name, "Charmaine." I've only met two women who have that name.
Back in my day, we used to smoke 'DOOBIES'!
@@clemguitar63 the late 70s.
Man this brings back so many memories. I use to watch Romper room faithfully and would hope she say my name but she never did lol.
Me too!!!
Lmbo. I was thinking if you had a non European name they'd never shout you out.
I watched this show almost everyday waiting for her to say my name and never did. Now I watch this clip and she said Jason! FINALLY!
I’d watch faithfully but she never called my name . Such good memories from the 60’s
I did too.....I think I figured out that she simply called out a random list of names....odds are someone out there matched the names...and if not it wasn't a big deal.....:)

Romper Room, Hobo Kelly, Sheriff John, Bozo the Birthday Clown, Tom Hatten and Popeye, Engineer Bill: my word I loved those guys.
Great memories of my childhood ❤

123lookemeup MY daughter was born in 1968.
I turned 2 in 1968 but I have fond memories of watching this show on weekday mornings.
Yup. She NEVER saw Laura. But always saw Lori, Laurel, Lauren... 🤣🤣🤣
I love how long the list is 😊!
My daughter was Anglia TV romper room in November1967 with Miss Roslyn. Quite an exciting time for her and for us to see her on TV

I have a memory from long ago that I was on Romper Room as a very small child about 4-5 years old with Miss Louise.
I loved this show when I was a little girl in the 1960s but I never heard my name.....
That "Magic Mirror" graphics remind me of the dimension the Enterprise was trapped in the "Star Trek" episode "Is There In Truth No Beauty?".
My mother wrote in to say my name (My nickname, actually) and she said it and I burst out crying and ran from the room. lol. I guess it was the shock.
I DO REMEMBER THIS WONDERFUL TEACHER!! It was a magical time for my brothers and sisters. We honestly believed she could see us through that magical mirror!
She never called my name, every morning after the show I felt horrible! 😢 lol
@@heinzh5687same here .
When I watched the show as a child she would never say my name : (
She didn't say my name either. She didn't even say Oprah's Name. She admitted she used to get so upset.
Lancelot Link I can see why!! Lol
@Chandra...LOL
Lancelot Link Me too! I was an avid watcher! Im thinking in my adult mind, that perhaps parents sent their child's name in? Idk.. I got to got to go to the Bozo show! 😠 BUT I'm still ticked.. lol

I watched this show when I was young and never would she see me. I'm in my 50s and just now she saw me. She finally called out my name.
I waited and waited and my name was never called...see this takes me right back there to that wish...I had
My name Isabelle or izzy never got called i was sad

I remember watching this show, when I was a Child .
No idea why the YT algorithm has recommended RR, but noticing that a lot of the "teachers" were pretty cute, LOL.
I’d watch and wait every day for her to say my name and she never did 😢. So nostalgic ! My grandkids laughed when I played this for them .?

Good ol PBS. Channel 2. Good times
My twin brother and I were on romper room in '72 Spokane Wa.
THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS ALL
I was on Romper Room in October 1968 KTNT 11 Tacoma

Not me.... :'-
Well, Buba...I heard my name too.........Stanley
Lol
Lol That’s awesome!
whatever.. I was more into Miss Ann Wilson back then. Remember Miss Ann in the late 1960s?

What kind of sorcery is this? 🤣😂. Bend and stretch, reach for the stars. Here comes Jupiter, there goes Mars.
Bend and stretch, reach for the stars. Here comes Jupiter, there goes Uranus.
It’s too bad kids don’t have this today because they could really use it.
It wouldn't surprise me if my parents and grandparents watched this show when they were in and kindergarten.
Never seen this, but I've heard a mention of this in a TV show once
I grew up on romper room❤
I see Tyrone, A Aron, Jenifa, J Quellin, Mr O Shaq Hennessey, J Seeca, D-Nice and B Lakey had special days too
Romper bomper stomper and boo.
" Call sign."
Then " call names ".
Not tango , delta , foxtrot...but kids names..
Mirror becomes a antenna and radio.
As a kid, I used to mistake her for Carol Burnett.
Mine neither!!! Ever!
I see Nicki Eyes, Jimmy Carbone, Jimmie Two times, Frank the Wop, Eddie Stabile, Frenchy and Johnny Roast Beef,
I never heard my name. Ever. I come on here today for kicks and don't you know, she called my name! Woo HOO!!!

It took a lot of Aqua-Net to keep her hair up in an Afro!
My mom was in this show. She’s 49 now and her name is Veronica. She also had a brother.
Everyone knows the magic mirror was supposed to look like a bad acid trip........
I remember watching the show when I was a kid she sad my name made so happy
What year did this episode air??? She said my name!!! I remember telling my mom she said my name & she didn't believe me. If this was THAT episode, I am gonna fall out! 😂🤣😅🤣😂

Everday I sat there right in front of the tv waiting for her to say my name- Emanuel.
😢 It never happened.
i loved this as a young 🔫

I see Heisenberg
I remember Mrs. Barbara with or after Captain Penny
When she called my name out it scared me. Could she really see me? It made you wonder how she did it! Sigh...

I don't know of a child from my generation that didn't watch Romper Room. Unfortunately, while my name isn't that unusual, it never got called. 😒
Holly Crap She Said My Name!!!!!!!!!!!
She saw me through the Mirror!!!!!
Every show , she breaks out the mirror that becomes a radio.
She says call names .
The names repeat , but no last names .
Must be a cipher in names.
My mind sees patterns and I found a odd one in a kid's tv show...
WE HAD A ROMPER ROOM TEACHER WHO LIVED IN OUR HOME TOWN OF HACIENDA HEIGHTS , CA.
SO COOL.
never heard my name either!
I don’t like that clown in the box music at the end of the show. That will keep you awake at night.
This part would scare the shit out of me
Miss Betty.
👉 WOW! That was longer than most classroom
role calls.... was she reading the phone book LOL!?
Never once heard my name... not even in that litany!

I was four and really pissed she never said “Natalie.”
Then I’ll say it. Hi,Natalie!
She never said Courtney either. Lol
Was I the only one frightened that she could "see" me?
