J.P. Patches Show Promo 1980

This video appears to be some sort of promotional video for the show, possibly to woo potential sponsors during a time when viewership was declining. J.P. explains the premise, the time, the show's educational aspect and shows pre-taped clips including footage from the Kingdome, "Flying Peanuts" (the Kingdome's popular peanut vendor), Mount St. Helens erupting, the Ballard Locks and local glass blowers. It also features clips from the J.P. Patches Thanksgiving Special from 1979.
