From Wikipedia: "Eureka! was a Canadian educational television series which was produced and broadcast by TVOntario in 1980.It is a series of humorous, and information-packed programs that bring physics concepts to vibrant and vigorous life. Each program takes a simple and direct approach to the subject matter; while the basic concepts are explained in a voice-over, cartoon characters and a variety of animated objects demonstrate the principles on the screen. Constant review and reinforcement make the message clear; as a result, the study of physics becomes easier and accessible - even to viewers without a solid background in the subject."
