I have such fond memories of watching this show as a kid. I think it was the first cooking show I ever watched, which is a bit weird because I'm American and I had no idea what a lot of those dishes were. But it was like watching two colorful, elderly aunties cook while making bawdy jokes and very un-PC remarks. (That part would not fly today and I'm not sorry about that at all. Rewatching it is a trip down memory lane and reminds you that they were a product of their time.)

I always assumed they were an old lesbian couple, though. I was very surprised to find out they weren't in a longterm relationship of any kind except for business reasons.

I remember thinking this about the Zoboomafuu guys. I think they're brothers, but they look so little alike I still actually don't know.

They are definitely brothers. I actually think they do look like siblings, but I could see someone having difficulty with it.

I love how you can tell the rough age group of someone by how they identify them. Kratts' Creatures (aired '96-'99), Zoboomafoo (aired '99-'01, or Wild Kratts ('11-current).

Haha! It was Kratt's Creatures for me. Definitely a highlight of my PBS viewing experience at that time. That and Magic School Bus. And Bill Nye. And Wishbone.

I know every gen says this about the shows they grew up with but I really think the 80s and 90s was peak PBS. 321 Contact, Carmen Sandiego, Bill Nye, GhostWriter, Wishbone, Kratts Creatures. Such solid fun educational shows!

Kratts' Creatures for me!

I plead reruns! Being too old to watch childrens show!

I actually still watch PBS Kids as a fully grown middle aged person.

I love this show, it's sort of the ancestor of GBBO.
They always came across to me as two friends who knew eachother for decades, I only found out later they had never even met before the show, they just hit it off right away.

This was a great show! I loved that they objected to the title on the grounds that yes, there were two of them and yes, they were fat, but they certainly weren't "ladies"! Clarissa definitely wasn't a lesbian, she was notorious for having sex with a (male) MP behind the speaker's chair in the Houses of Parliament while she was a barrister.

XD I loved this comment!

They grossed me out. Sorry. All that sweat and dirty fake nails around food. Yuck!
