Hello, Megan!

Opening title card.

Hello, Megan! was a television comedy series that aired during the 1979-1980 television season[1] for 22 episodes.[2] It was cancelled after one season due to mediocre ratings.[3]

Plot[]

The main character of Hello, Megan! is Megan Wheeler (played by Marie Logan), a popular cheerleader.[4] She had all kinds of adventures with her best friend Rita Lee (played by Rita Farr),[5] parents (played by Jonathan Lord and Sandra Stanyon),[4] and her crush, Conner Manley (Paul Sloane).[5]

The pilot episode began with Megan heading out to the library to study, only to be reminded by her mother that Conner was coming to study with her. Conner arrived immediately thereafter.[4]

Episode 17 included Grammy Jones's cookie recipe.[6] Megan had to bake cookies for the school bake sale, but thought it would be faster to make one giant cookie.[4]

Another episode involved Megan having to take care of the school frog, while also getting ready to sing at the school show. Megan worries Conner will not like the song.[7]

History[]

The series was produced by Greg Vietti and Brandon Weisman, and ran for one season of 22 episodes.[2] It was released on VHS, but was not available online in 2010.[4] The Comedy Classic Network aired reruns in 2010[8] and 2020.[9]

It eventually faded to obscurity on Earth, and leading actress Marie Logan considered it a part of her past. But Martian Manhunter included the show in his broadcasts of Earth television to Mars, where it gained some popularity. To Miss Martian, the series was everything. She identified with the main character, mainly because of the similarity of their names, and because all her problems would be over in 22 minutes. When she came to Earth, she based her human form on Megan Wheeler, and would still regularly rewatch episodes.[4] After Marie's death, her son Garfield also watched episodes of the series on occasion.[10]

Cast and characters[]

The character Grammy Jones is also at least mentioned in the series, but whether she appears and who played her if so is unknown.[6]

Hello Megan!

School and boys and parents too.
     A whole lot to juggle for Miss You-Know-Who.
(Who?) Hello Megan.
     (Who?) Hello Megan!

This cheerleader knows the score.
     Center of attention and so much more!
Hello Megan.
     Hello Megan!

A little bit distractible,
     But never too intractable.
She's really quite attractable.
     Okay, a lot distractible!

Eventually, she'll get a clu-ue <frog croaks>
(Hello Megan!)

The girl for me,
     The girl for you...
Hello, Megan <motorbike horn honks twice>

The girl for me,
     The girl for you... <laughter>
Hello, Megan!
     Hello, Megan!
Hello, Megan!
