Adventures from the Book of Virtues

All I really remember about it was a Burger King tie-in circa 1998

I remember thinking Virtues was produced by LDS or someone connected to them, since the stories seemed like Sunday school stories.

The show sought to illustrate themes of common virtues through well-known international heroes and stories, based on the Book of Virtues collected and edited by conservative commentator and former Secretary of Education William J. Bennett.

this sounds about as fun as watching paint dry

Sometimes it had stories from Greek Mythology or some such thing, and those were kind of fun.

I will be surprised if Aliroz has not seen this.

God, the theme song is a weird Jimmy Harted mashup of "Under the Sea" with "I Just Can't Wait to Be King"

I'm sorry it's just that this show feels way way too derivative in a bad way already and I just finished its intro

Anonus

Haha, Zack is DEFINITELY voiced by Pamela Adlon, though it's not overly obvious most of the time

I liked that show!  It was on PBS every once in a blue moon.
