History in Pi Minutes is a series where I look at some popular topics in Disney or Theme Park History and cover them in a bite size format.
Today we are gonna look at Language Arts through Imagination. An Educational cartoon show (well, partially animated) starring Figment the Dragon! These videos were a part of the EPCOT Center Educational Media series and were only available to schools. For decades, the show was considered Lost Media as so many of the episodes were impossible to find. Only Would you Eat a Blue Potato could be found, originally by the fan site Figment's Imagination. Although recently the rest of the series has been found! Including crossover episodes with Alice from Alice in Wonderland and Peter Pan! I hope you enjoy this look at this utterly bizzare weird and terrible animated atrocity.

MousePlanet was one of the first sites to give the lost series some attention with their article about the Forgotten Films of Figment:
