This was one of my favourite shows as a kid. I'm so happy I found episodes I can watch on here :)

Today's Special! Now THIS was a show full of magic, dance and song! Ran for almost a decade on Nickelodeon! 😊😊😊😊😊😊

I always loved this show as a kid. I loved how everybody seemed like such good friends. I loved jodi the most she always seemed so paitent and had a a calm and kind demeanour. I also loved her pink jumpsuit I wanted one just like it. They don’t make good shows like this for kids anymore.

Thank you very much for posting these episodes of Today's Special. Last time I watched one, I must've been 6 years old. I hope the original masters of this show were kept by TVO and not thrown out. There was a lot of great programming on TVO and PBS back when I was a child, it would be nice to have these shows aired again for kids of today.

Love this show used to watch it and it bring good memories back

I used 2 love this show when I was a kid thanks 4 putting this up

I like the way Jeff asks the computer how he can turn her on and what button he should press :)))

I heard about this show reading a magazine. Prior to that I had never heard of it. It sounded interesting and thought that I'd look it up. From what I understand it lasted several seasons and had a good following. I would've loved to watch this when I was coming up. It seems educating and wholesome.

One of my favourite shows as a child. Wish they had it on Netflix so my kids can watch it. Todays Special, polkadot door and mister dress up was all i watched.

loved this, this was my favorite show. I loved the episode where the store was gonna get shut down and they found the plaque showing it was a historic sight and it saved the building and Muffy got her big house makeover and the most heartbreaking moment of my favorite show when Hazel the butterfly died. Lord my heart broke

Very sporting of the set dresser to display Sesame Street toys in the department. But with this show Canadian and Sesame Street American, I guess they were more cousins than rivals.

Brings back so many memories

Love the intro music!

17:34 The JB button he pressed activated Justin Bieber to be born years later. The jellybeans falling were merely from some stagehand with a real sweet tooth for them who was hiding in the ceiling.

At 26:10, Jodie's eyes look like she is going to cry. Or she's in love.

Hooray!!!!

That quiz at 22:52 was completely unneccesary!! We have seen the Max-Vac 2000 throughout the episode to know what it looks like!! In fact some of the quizzes I think are meant for 2 yr olds!!! If adults like us loved this show as children, I think we could do without the quizzes and continue with the story leaving out the quizzes!!!

thanks for sharing

At 5:23, when Max said about the store manager, I'm sure it was a better store manager than Crandall J. Crummington III who was the new store manager in the episode titled "Sam And The Robot."

@@Anonymous-qg9xx Probably if Crandall J. Crummington was the store manager in this episode titled "Trash", then Jodie would have been wearing the picture of him in the back of her clothes since in "Sam And The Robot", she mentioned that he required her to have a uniform with his picture in the back and Sam would have been fired earlier since Crummington fired him on "Sam And The Robot" for not being a strong security guard. Also if Crummington was the store manager here on this "Trash" episode, there would have been pictures of him throughout the store because in the beginning of the "Sam And The Robot" episode, Jeff said "I can't believe all these pictures of the new night manager, they're on every floor" which kind of showed that, that was the first episode Crummington was on like there was an old night manager during this "Trash" episode.

Another hat "took off" or vacuumed, I must say @ 9:55.

Nooo, not the hat!

This episode was kind of boring. Seriously? Using a vacuum cleaner as a microphone was kind of silly. However, I had always wanted to hear Sam recite the magic words when Jeff lost his hat. This is the only episode where he does and Schumin didn't even notice. Haha. Usually, it was Jodie or Muffy saying the magic words.
