I was just reading an email going on about the 80's/90's and it made me remember classic kid's tv shows such as Thundercats, Danger Mouse, Raggy Dolls.. I think that shows were better when I was a kid. My little sister who is 9 is obsessed with a show called Tracy Beaker which looks at a carehome focusing on a girl called Tracy Beaker, and to me she just seems like a brat with a bad attitude who needs a good hiding! Gone are the days of He-Man and his moral highground!

What were your fave TV shows as kids?

Chocky. Dogtanian. City of Gold. Ulaseas [sorry can't spell that]. Maid Mariane and her Merry Men. The December Rose. Press Gang. Defenders of the planet. Kids of Degrassy Street.

Battle of the Planets
Dogtanian and the Three Muskehounds
The Amazing Cities of Gold (I think that's what it was called)
He-Man
Crackerjack
Hong Kong Phooey
The Perils of Penelope Pitstop (from where I take my username)
Tom & Jerry
Captain Caveman
Scooby Doo (but not Scrappy Doo)

Soooo many!

Danger Mouse was cool...

Anyone remember Pob (half monkey/half kid with a red and yellow stripey wooly jumper)?

Oh god yeah.. he used to spit on the glass and write out his name

There wwas a guy at my school who looked like him.. so he was nicknamed Pob

Thundercats

I still watch Thundercats Ho!! the movie

I always liked Bananaman because he seemed like a realistic superhero. And Superted was nice and innocent

i liked a russian cartoon about the rabbit and the wolf:))

How could I forget - Road Runner!

But if Wile E. Coyote did get him then it would teach kids that you get rewarded for being bad, thus the morality lesson would have been lost.

I blame the new cartoons...nobody wore a hoodie after watching Bugs Bunny did they?

I agree, I always wanted the bird to get it. Just like tweetie-pie and Penelope Pitstop who both should have got it!

Age test - who remembers Heidi?

No, the English-dubbed Austrian TV series with the girl with the curly brown hair and her grumpy grandfather who looked like Obi Wan Kenobi!

Released it in 78, but I remember it through the early to mid-80s.
Thanks to the power of Google, Amazon have it on DVD (no, I'm not buying it - it's the awful dubbing I remember best!):

Appparently Heidi wasn't Austrian but Swiss. Sorry to all our Swiss viewers out there in cyberland!

I remember Spatz - it was set in a burger bar!

Sylvester I put city of gold on my list too. It was an awesome epic - went on for years & years do you remember the song
"children of the sun, oh your time has just begun".

Yes I remember the badly dubbed Heidi too she used to cry for "goat pee ter", but move her mouth really really quickly, saying someting in French swiss!
