Danger Mouse, I have the three disc box set of DM goodness.

Also I loved watching Technoman, it was an awesome cartoon.

As for shows does anyone remember Don't Forget Your Toothbrush? I used to love that show (until it got axed, bastard networks), also I loved The Big Gig (I think that's right) with McDermott and the gang.

The 90's rocked. Oh, and Spiderman and X-Men of the 90's were the shiz, they are the greatest renditions of comic books ever imagined.

By the way, the caveman claymation (whoever mentioned it) was called Gogs.

OMG. I just remembered the best TV show evaaaaar.

LET THE BLOOD RUN FREE

The World's first interactive TV series. Anyone else remember this?
You could vote on the outcome after the end of every episode. It was like a Choose Your Own Adventure book, except in real life.

Hey great to hear that some of the elder members here(HeDanny, The Answer and The big M) remember those shows.

They don't seem to make cartoons like they used to huh?
Especially stuff like the Lost city of gold where at the end of the episode it would have real life information on incan civilisation etc.
Man that show was great!

And Star Blazers I was absolutely ga ga over so much to the extent that I built my own (was it the yamoto? the name of the huge ship with the mega laser?) version of that out of multiple cardboard boxes painted in the same colour scheme and an ice cream container in the front representing the mega laser thing it used to shoot from the front of the ship.
I used to sit in that everytime the show was on. icon_lol_old.gif
Heheh.

Thanks heaps too HeDanny for the info on the lost city of gold episodes.

do you mean "The Mysterious Cities of Gold"?

Apparently there is a petition for madman I think to release it in its english form but haven't heard much more on that front.
My mate is a huge fan of that series and sussed all that out but last I heard was what I said above. icon_sad.gif

"esteban!!" I remember that was always yelled in every episode from some character.
Oh and those sneaky deck hands.
Sheez it's been ages since I've seen that series.

I was born to contribute to this thread! 80's and 90's sooo many good memories to come out of this year. As for TV let's see.



How awesome was this show? I remember crying when it got cancelled off the ABC to never return again, a dark day in history. I also remember...



This was my favouite Disney cartoon, loved it when it introduced other characters and had entire story arcs, it was so different at the time.

Who remembers this show?



Now that was awesome when I was a kid! I loved watching it especially some of the challenges. I always supported the gladiators, I remember Rhino being the best.

Hmmm...what else was there?



When my cousin was boarding at my house he introduced me into a lot of things I couldn't tell my parents. This was one of those shows. Makes me sick watching this show now, but back in the day I loved it! Apart of me still does, but I'm a pussy when it comes to blood and guts.

I remember there being this game show on channel 7 which featured a Super Nintendo if anyone could remember that, it would be awesome.

Amazeing? Or something similar. I loved loved LOVED that show. I've only actually seen your post so far and if it's any indication, I'll probably die of a nostalgia overdose. I'll check it out from the top later, when I'm better prepared...

A-maze-ing, that was it. They played Super Mario Kart to determine the winner.

Also, Dinosaurs, the one with people running around in rubber suits. It had the baby "Everyone has to love me, I'm a baby!". Great show.

I love this thread! I was coming in to post "Fraggle Rock", but I see Theory beat me to it.

Another fave was a show that ran in the 70's & 80's that my friends and I thought hilarious: "The Goodies". Anyone remember it? It was on the ABC after school every weekday just before "Dr Who" (another classic)

I *loved* The Goodies, so much so that I told my Dad I was going to marry Tim Brooke-Taylor when I was 8. icon_redface.gif
