Science Rock is the fourth Schoolhouse Rock series, which goes over all types of science.

After its original airing, The Weather Show was pulled from broadcast rotation due to the Ringling Bros. & Barnum & Bailey Circus objecting to its use of their trademark slogan (which was in the questioned title) and filed a lawsuit against the network for copyright infringement. As a result, the 1995 VHS of the program (and subsequent VHS reprints) removed the song. However, it was included in the 1987 Schoolhouse Rock VHS release, and in 2002 it was included on the bonus disc of the 30th Anniversary DVD. It is also included on Disney+.
