What happens

Square One Television (sometimes referred to as Square One or Square One TV) is an American children's television program produced by the Children's Television Workshop (now known as Sesame Workshop), with a mathematics theme. The program was created and broadcast by PBS in the United States from January 26, 1987 to November 6, 1992. After the last episode aired, the show went into reruns until October 7, 1994. The show was revived for the 1995–96 PBS season as a teacher instruction program, Square One TV Math Talk. From 1999 to 2003, Square One was shown in reruns on Noggin, a cable channel co-founded by Sesame Workshop. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
