Getting Schooled: Special Treat (1975)

Special Treat was NBC's entry into the after-school sweepstakes, launched 40 years ago to counter ABC's popular Afterschool Special series. However, Treat lasted just 10 years, due largely to declining ratings. Unlike Afterschool Special, Treat served up some news documentaries on serious issues, such as drugs, in this 1979 entry.........



No rating. By the time I was in high school, I tuned out the after-school shows.
