Grammar Rock is the second Schoolhouse Rock series. Each song discusses different parts of speech.

The episode introduces Jack Sheldon as a main vocalist for the series and Lynn Ahrens as a vocalist and songwriter for the series. Conjunction Junction was Sheldon's introduction on Schoolhouse Rock and A Noun is a Person, Place, or Thing was Ahrens' first introduction.

"Busy Prepositions", and "The Tale of Mr. Morton" were produced for Schoolhouse Rock's return to television for ABC in 1993 with J.J. Sedelmaier Productions, Inc. producing the animation.
