Now this may show someone's age (Nev I'm looking at you old timer) but what kids cartoons/shows do you fondly remember from your childhood? please log in to view this image please log in to view this image
Was just showing the kids some intros the other day. With things like Super ted & Danger mouse getting revivals we'll have some more reminders in the coming months.
I make my kids watch them, my attempt at "educating" them. They've sat there and watched He-man, original Thundercats, original Turtles, Dungeons and Dragons, Transformers, M.A.S.K , Captain Planet, mysterious cities of gold and then something a little more modern The Xmen. Managed to watch a couple of Jayce and the wheeled warriors and Ulyses on youtube. Would love to find Pole position, BraveStarr and Centurions.
Mysterious Cities of Gold Dogtanian and the Three Muskerhounds Transformers Mask Around the World with Willy Fog Knight Rider A-Team Airwolf Chips Street Hawk The 'Real' Ghostbusters Wide Awake Club Why Don't You Grange Hill Thundercats Ulysses 31 Muppet Babies Fraggle Rock Bananaman Centurians Count Duckula Galaxy High Masters of the Universe Inspector Gadget Christ, I watched way too much TV. But they are all classics.
RentaGhost with Mr. Claypole, The Tomorrow People, Grange Hill(obviously), Ulysses 31, Jamie and the Magic Torch, Why Dont You? and Jackanory and still have a soft spot for BOD.
And he acted like Freddie Mercury. Claypole was a class act though. He made wearing a jesters outfit almost seem normal.
Pogles Wood The Flashing Blade, a staple of many summer holidays in the early 70's The Banana Splits Thunderbirds Stingray
Oh yeah only 3 channels, black and white no colour and transmission mostly from around 4pm to 11pm, would have a short lunchtime transmission for news and watch with mother, I have no memory of it but I watched the 1966 World Cup Final with my dad, brother and about 20 others on a small set.
ITV/ BBC on a Saturday morning/ Evening. Between then you used to bugger off out and play. None of this sitting at home playing on the PS3 or watching lunchtime kick off ****e. FA Cup Final had a proper build up too. Start at 8am if I remember right and went all the way through to after the game. Proper TV. Might have my blinkers on, but far far better.
