Long Lost 90's: Eyewitness
Running from January 3rd 1995 and ending on November 24th 1997 Eyewitness is an edutainment show where the balance of learning and fun is more direct with the lesson. However the visuals give the show it's own unique look. With animals, skeletons and even planets in the museum setting. The visual freedom was limited to the subject of the episode. This series, unlike most other shows, used computer animation and editing for a majority of it's visuals. The rest is filled with sets they have made, footage based on the subject and animals performing for the camera with seamless integration and transition. I personally enjoy this show to this day, though mostly for nostalgia and visuals. I will admit some of the science is outdated since it has been twenty years since these first aired.
There are two different narrators for this show. The narrator for the United Kingdom version is Andrew Sachs and the Narrator in the American version was Martin Sheen until Andrew Sachs took over for both versions in 1996 using different accents for both versions respectively. After listening to both the American and United Kingdom versions I feel that the switching of accents while understandable was unnecessary. As long as kids understood what was being said, accent shouldn't really matter.

I love watching both eyewitness and amazing animals as a kid. I really wish I owned at least one video tape for each of those shows as a kid. Heck, I wish I owned some video tapes of those shows now!

Short but sweet. I don't recall this show at all. But the concept seems pretty solid. Thanks for bringing this to our attention, TDitH.
