Animals of farthing wood

Hero to Zero with Michael Owen

Poddington Peas

There was a previous thread with 100's of videos.

But I agree TV has gone downhill, maybe its because of the huge amount of channels that any old shit gets on TV. Childrens TV is by far the worst, if it aint some middle class american who wants to be a singer or dancer the chances of getting it on tv is small.

Its strange to think there was more diversity in programming when there was 4 channels than there is now with 100's.

Being 24 I don't watch much kids tv obviously. But when my young cousins come round there's hardly anything decent on these days.

I used to watch program's like renford rejects, the hurricanes, art attack where they'd show you how to make stuff, kenan & Kel, grange hill, biker grove.

Even Saturday morning's there's nothing on I used to watch Ant & Dec, although mainly because Cat Deeley was on it.

Used to love The Flumps. :blush:

And Bagpuss...

There was something very dodgy about Mr Ben...

And then there's the Bod walk... :cool:

Christ, it's no wonder I was scarred for life! >_< Of course I only know all of these from repeats. :D

Got to talk about The Animals Of Farthing Wood. That shit hurt, man. That was some really heavy stuff for a 6 year old. I know it sounds cliché but I don't think this generation or a lot of generations from now on are watching great shows like that.

When I was really young, Dappledown Farm, Thomas the Tank Engine, Magic Roundabout, Postman Pat, Fireman Sam was all the rage.

I used to like Goosebumps, Tom & Jerry, The Flintstones, Wacky Races, Captain Caveman, Top Cat, Scooby Do, Looney Tunes - proper cartoons!

I don't think anyone will ever top the old Tom and Jerry, Tex Avery or Looney Tunes cartoons. I did like watching Knightmare, Byker Grove, any art program, Watt on Earth, Spatz and My Parents are Aliens, even though I wasn't a kid when that one started. I met the girl who plays Mel once in the street in London and I lost my shit. I hugged her!

I couldn't stand Blue Peter. Never saw a full episode.

Great theme tunes...
