This show is called Today's Special.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Today's_Special
"Today's Special was a children's television show produced by Clive VanderBurgh at TV Ontario from 1981 to 1987. It also ran on Nickelodeon and the Faith and Values Channel (now the Hallmark Channel.) It was set in a department store, based on the anchor location of the now defunct Simpson's. Many sequences for the show were shot at the Queen Street West and Yonge Street store after hours...
"In the children's department of a major department store, each night Jodie when she arrives for work carries a mannequin (Jeff) upstairs, where Muffy says the magic words "hocus pocus alimagocus!" From there Jeff comes to life, and hilarity ensues.
Many early episodes focused on a tangible object as a subject, such as hats or costumes, with the show revolving around teaching about that subject. Later episodes dealt with more complicated subjects, such as the episode "Wishes" dealing with sacrificing one thing for another, or "Phil's Visit", which dealt with alcoholism."
I preferred "Under the Umbrella Tree" myself.

Yup, it was Today's Special. I remember the security guard named Sam was always eating a donut and I think that there were 2 manequins.

That was "Today's Special" right? But I don't think it was Nick... I think it was PBS. He had the magic hat, right? I LOVED that show?
