And who could forget the classic Jim’ll Fix It!!! and Fun House with the guy with the mullet and the twin cheerleaders... mmmm

Has to be the cartoons! Ghostbusters, Dangermouse, Mysterious Cities of Gold, those cartoons showing the workings of the human body (loved those!).

Also, anyboyd remember Knightmare? Classic show with three kids guiding a friend through a computer maze with goblins and trape. Brilliant stuff.

[max power]

if your going cartoons then transformers, gummy bears, smurfs ah what a misused childhood

[Schumi]

Dogtanian and the Muskehounds.

Brilliant!

[max power]

it was great but if you missed an episode you were f***** even if they did a recap at the start of each show.

one of my all time favourites was hong kong fooi (spelled wrong)

[Countyman]

Anyone remember Ulysees or battle of the plantets???

ghostbusters was good though !!

[Countyman]

[Gary]

Misfits Of Science
mad show.


Transformers
Robots in disguise
(prob should be in cartoon thread)


Neighbours
It was good then like.


Battlestar Galatica

and that New Zealand thing, i think it was called
Going round the twist




actually now that i think of it, what was the show, with puppets with charactes such as "WOOLY THE WONDER SHEEP", "DAVID COLEMOLE" and the main character was a crocodile?


:confused:

[UCD_4_Life]

Cheers will never be beaten.

Oh and Moonlighting. That Cybill Sheridan really fries my potatoes.

[yur man]

Today Tonight :D

it brings back memories of stayin up really late. i remember 1 'episode' they were goin on about 'video nasties'. they meant stuff like driller killer and just porn really. great scare mongerin though ;)

[tiktok]

oh...misfits of science, brilliant.
courtney cox as a telekenesis type weirdo, people shooting electricity out of their hands, class. i used to love it.

[tiktok]

GWA,

i just remembered that 'round the twist show'.
was that the australian thing where they lived in the lighthouse and all the weird stuff went on. kind of like 'the twilight zone' for the young and innocent.

and 'wooly the wonder sheep' was on 'round the bend', which was a half hour show that made up part of 'Pajo's junkbox". and it was only class.

[wws]

anyone seen this:

[EireBadBoy]

Bring back Spitting Image I say!.............

The A-Team remains the master of the 80's even after having gone through all the others mentioned. Having seen the last Pic, "What Ya Takin' 'Bout Willis?" will always be a classic.

[techs]

mine was riptide. it was on at 8pm on friday on sky one. not many people remember it but it was a classic. mcguyver was great too.
