Overview
3-2-1 Contact Extra is a collection of documentary‑style specials produced by the Children’s Television Workshop as an extension of the science series 3‑2‑1 Contact. Aired between 1989 and 1992, the specials were designed for older children and teenagers, tackling real‑world issues through science, personal stories, and expert insight. Each episode focused on a single topic—ranging from public health and environmental challenges to adolescence and social pressures—using interviews, on‑location reporting, and first‑person narratives. The series aimed to help young viewers understand complex subjects with clarity, honesty, and practical relevance.
