All that I remember about Pee Wee's Playhouse was that there were talking furniture, and he liked to contect the dots.  La la la la.

Was Playdays the one with two puppets in a box that I used to love so much, me and a friend made our own box to collect junk in... no wait, that was called Playbox wasn't it. I was obsessed with that show.

I remember watching Going Live and Double Dare on Saturday mornings when the babysitter came round. That was fun!

Art Attack also used to be one of my favourite kids programs ever (not strictly a kids program), and I still watch the occasional episode of SMArt aswell. hehe. I used to love How 2 too, and I once met Fred Dineage aswell. No wander I turned out a geek  ;)

Pee-wee's Playhouse sucked, but Pee-wee's Big Adventure is a good movie. It's too bad that Paul Reubens is such a weird kiddie porno-loving freak. I wouldn't mind seeing Pee-wee make a comeback(if he's as funny as he was in the first movie).

Playdays was about this school bus that used to stop at different stops each week. Like the 'Why Bird' stop, the 'Tent' stop and the 'Dot stop' among loads others  :)

And yeah I agree, Art Attack rules. I still watch that. I happened to catch the end of an episode on the Disney Channel just this morning  :)

And I've just remembered another program I used to watch when I was younger, Pingu. It was about this little penguin and it was made out of plasticine  :)

Pingu was cool, I watched it a bit at college as a friend recommended it, I loved the episode where the seagull kept going to the loo on his head  :laff:

I think you'll find that Art Attack IS strictly a kids show...

How 2 used to be good, until they got new presenters and ran out of cool things to tell you how to do.

What about Johnny Ball Reveals All?

Reveals, um, all?
It's less porn than it sounds.
It was a science show of some kind, in fact.
And he's Zoe Ball's dad.

I remember "Think Of A Number...".  I guess that shows my age, Johnny Ball was good.

Just recently, they've been showing reruns of "The Adventure Game" which I remember being ace (the guy talking backwards, the Salamander), but now just seems very dated and poor in the face of The Crystal Maze.

Art Attack was my one of my favourite kids' shows when I was young. I think I recorded it every week and got the magazines  :)

Why does that not surprise me?  ;)

The only thing about Art Attack I know of note, was that Neil Buchanan was one of the presenters of seminal wicked Saturday Morning Kids TV Show, "No.73" - featuring Sandi Toksvig.

That was cool!

Again, I'm showing my age.

The title of which was then changed to 'Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles' in the UK, because the 'ninja' was thought to be too violent...

They also had to change the title of "Top Cat", but yet it didn't sound the same as "Boss Cat" so they kept it as Top Cat. Or at least I think they did.

Kids TV from the 80s wasn't in the same mould as kids TV now days. They actually had decent storylines and character development.

Also, I'd like to add that these anime-loving, nipponophiles can go to hell with their 'Macross Saga' tross. It'll always be Robotech to me...

I always remember watching the cartoon series of Sonic the Hedgehog and Super Mario Bros. on a saturday and sunday morning. And the Bill & Ted cartoon series.

In the 70's there was some cat food, called Top Cat, and therefore the BBC changed the title to Boss Cat to avoid blatant advertising.

Ridiculous, but true.

'Somewhere in the dark and nasty regions, where nobody goes, stands an ancient castle. Deep within this dank and uninviting place lives Berk...'

"'ello"

'...overworked servant of The Thing Upstairs...'

"Berk! Feed me!"

'...but that's nothing compared to the horrors that lurk beneath the trap door. For there's always something down there, in the dark, waiting to come out..'


Heh, that's all from memory too. I quote that intro just about as much as rach quotes Bananaman..

This is probably why the Star Fox game (from Nintendo) got renamed to Lylat Wars in the UK. There was an unrelated game from Atari with the same title.

*funky jazz bump!*

Today in our Unix lab instead of working we had a big nostalgia session and remembered all those old cartoons, some of them were already mentioned but I remember more of them now:
Centurions,
Count Duckula,
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Shredder, Krang, Bepop, Rocksteady and that big New Orleans Alligator guy),
Thundercats,
What was the name of that cartoon inside the human body, everone were blood cells or something?

I remember my love growing up was the old show Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.  I also *loved* My Little Pony Tails!  n___n  I also watched NICKELODEON a lot... classic shows like Doug, The Rugrats, Ren & Stimpy, Rocko's Modern Life, Hey Dude, and my favorite, Salute Your Shorts.  These shows were the essence of my childhood.  I don't think I'd be the same without 'em!  :x

No, a much older program which I at first thought was Ulysses 31 but it wasn't.

It kinda has similar animation though, it was an educational program about the human body.
