Recess School's Out

One Saturday Morning Debuts on ABC

Premiering on this day in 1997 was One Saturday Morning. The two-hour ABC Saturday morning show aired various episodes of animated series along with various short segments. Two series also debuted on this day as part of One Saturday Morning. Pepper Ann focused on a quirky 12-year-old girl with an eternal quest to be cool. Now we’ll take a short break, because it’s time for Recess. Recess followed a small group of fourth-grade students and their interactions with teachers and other students. In 2001, the television series graduated to the big screen with the theatrical movie Recess: School’s Out.
