ThingamaBob

Pretty clever show where an inventor and his team get three items that are related to each other. They then have to come up with an invention using the items sometimes apart and sometimes together. Interesting to see what they come up with, you get history factoids throughout and you have to try to figure out the connection of the three items. Nice to get you thinking at the same time intrigued to see what Bob and his team build. Sometimes the ideas maybe a bit over engineered for what the end result maybe. Other times a fun way to utilize something. Good show for kids to watch as well, as you could get your kids thinking. Give a kid a random items and let them try to be like Bob and his team and come up with an invention to use it. Too bad this show did not last longer than ten episodes, I found it on the Story channel when channel surfing. More engaging than other History channel shows like Pawn Stars and Pickers.
