Programs of yesteryear that you enjoyed

[MackemX]

Most people can't believe there was only 12 episodes of Fawlty Towers. I couldn't believe there was only 13 episodes of Bagpuss when a friend told me she had the video

anyone remember the 'we will fix it, we will fix it' song?

Hello,



Kinda reminds me of FRAGGLE ROCK. Gotta love muppets

[ZAPPER]

Only 12 Faulty towers? I swear that I watched them off and on all thru high school. (I guess that "high" is the key word there)

[MackemX]

lol , Fraggle Rock was great, especially the Doozers. I've edited the OP as it would be good to hear about the programs we grew up with. Most of mine are from the late 70's/early 80's

some I remember instantly are

Battleof the Planets (G-Force)
Thundercats
Inspector Gadget
The New Schmoo (this looks like it only had 7 episodes, so it's another high repeater )

there's loads more as I was a TV junkieback then

[jimmalenko]

anyone remember the 'we will fix it, we will fix it' song?

So ....... Bob the Builder IS a fake .... I knew it !!!

My memories are mainly of cartoons - Inspector Gadget, Danger Mouse, Astro Boy, Dennis the Menace ...

[yoda313]

Hello,

INSPECTOR GADGET!!! Great fun

Anyone remember VOLTRON???? Or my personal favorite was TRANSFORMERS - by the way they ARE making a live action moive - confirmed on the radio the other day.

A CG Optimus Prime would like way cool. Plus last I heard they were going to use the original 80's lineup not any of the newer knockoffs....

Yeah good stuff,Could not stand the Jetsons.

...plus you don't live in the UK

I don't live in the UK either, but I have seen Fawlty Towers on PBS. They're also this show called "Keeping Up Appearances" about this quirky woman who always trying to be better than everyone else. It's British too. It comes on PBS Channel 12 or I hear if you have the Digital Cable it comes on the "BBC America" channel.

Funny thing is, I've been in the UK alot, never seen Fawlty Towers or "Keeping Appearance" on their TV but they play a lot of old America movies! Theire TV left is not so great there. I'm glad that I do not live in the UK.

Hello,

Of course I remember He-man

What was the name of that little magic guy that floated around???? And wasn't she-ra some kind of alternate universe that shared something with he-man's universe??? I think there was a portal between the two or something like that.....

Kevin

[canadateck]

She-ra was He-mans Sister.

[yoda313]

She-ra was He-mans Sister.

Hello,

I loved Three's Company and Knight Rider. I can't believe no one has mentioned Magnum P.I.. (what are the rules on punctuation when the sentence ends with a period?)

One for northca

what was that one called with the line 'Whatcha talkin bout Willis?'?

hmm, another double ender punctuation thing, teacher what's the answer and do you put a . after the '?'?

[jimmalenko]

what was that one called with the line 'Whatcha talkin bout Willis?'?

Diff'rent Strokes - Gary Coleman used to deliver it IIRC.
