| Pierce User Info... | Ok, fuck this shit. I have come to my senses. I am old. I dont give a shit who says what, but when i am up at 6 am on a saturday morning and there is no sign of the Smurfs anywhere on TV, that means i am old. I go to bed at 10 pm at the latest everynight so that i can get well rested. Well rested for what? Beyond me. All i friggin do is bitch and complain about chumps, play my guitar, pay my taxes and go to bed early. Also..................... I looked around and my plants are alive, and you can't smoke any of them! First sign of being old! Here is a request..........For all you elders out there, lets start walking down memory lane and bring up shit from our generation. The shit should be something that only those who have experienced 70's 80's 90's and 00's would get or remember. I will start....... " I am Astar, i can put my arm back on, you can't, so play safe!" Fuck i am an idiot - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 5:34am | ||
| Yahoo Serious User Info... | Haha, i totally remember that risk taking cyborg. "Kid-Bitz" Remember that geek (Gary Ed Mach) who would stand in front of a counter and explain science at the "I am a fucking vegetable" pace. I cant believe i remember his name - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 5:44am | ||
| Pierce User Info... | Fuckin EH! "You Can't do that on Television" Alanis morisette used to act on it. Everytime someone said "I dont know" they used to get slimed. It was on YTV everyday, damn i miss that show. - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 7:11am | ||
| Shaggy User Info... | Hercules... 'Herc! Herc! It's Daedelus! It's Daedelus!' Sorry, guess that's more the late 60's..hehe Although they did rerun a lot of the classic cartoons well into the mid 70's and 80's. Hell, classic spiderman is still on cartoon net. Then there's school house rock. Always loved that when I was a kid. - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 8:51am | ||
| RSBF User Info... | i love this - Pierce you ROCK for bringing this up! - "Shick Shadel Hospitals - only 10 days and a couple of 2 day follow ups" (drug rehab facility commercial) - The Mini Pops (this is where the singing all began) - The Smurfs (created by a Hungarian dude so my dad bought me absolutely everything to do with the Smurfs including 8-tracks, figurines, clothes) - 8-TRACKS in general - Hogans Heroes - Video Hits (or something like that - an afterschool 1/2 hr show with requests for videos with Terry David Mulligan) ** For one dollar - being able to buy a bag of chips, a chocolate bar, and still have a lot of coin to spend on candy. - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 9:25am | ||
| Mutilashawn User Info... | hey even I remember "you can't do that on television". It was really fucking vulgar for a kids show. - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 9:31am | ||
| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | Remember the between cartoon ABC "Bod-Squad" health tips? Louie The Lifeguard: "Don't drown your food, In ketchup or mayo, or goop. How can you eat what you can't even see, so don't drown your food." or this classic: "They call me yuck-mouth cuz I don't brush, how's about a little kiss? I've got beef in my teeth and some chicken too, OUCH that's a cavity, hey that's new. If you don't brush your teeth and floos them too, you'll be a yuck-mouth." - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 9:46am | ||
| Wreaker of Havoc User Info... | Rocket Robin Hood, Starblazers, A Team, Battlestar Galactica, Danger Island, shit Fantasy Island, "help Woodsy spread the word", The Electric Company (with Morgan Freeman), ZOOM, Banana Splits, HR Puff n Stuff........... - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 9:49am | ||
| jay brown User Info... | weekdays started with star blazers at like 6:30 or something. Weekends started with the Banana Splits show and the Bay City Rollers show. Weekends ended with Love Boat, Fantasy Island, then Rat Patrol and if the parents were in a good mood I got to stay up late enough to watch Doctor Who. What about Fat Albert, and the cartoon they all used to watch on the show? I think it was the brown hornet. - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 10:08am | ||
| Pierce User Info... | Video Hits,,,,,,ya remember the Blonde chick, then it was Dan Gallagher, who went on to form that insane game show TEST PATTERN!

| RSBF User Info... | Video Hits ROCKED! does anyone remember the CKDA "request and dedication hour" at night?? I was too young to stay up so I used to bring my stuffed animal Radio Shack radio owl to bed (it was an owl with a small radio in its belly) and listen in. ALSO, that show "Land of the Lost" re-runs in the 80's with the Sleestaks!!!!! Those things scared me so much I would run out of the room and my brother would let me know when they were gone ; ) check THIS OUT: (too funny) http://www.70slivekidvid.com/lotl.htm it says that DVD's are to be released this summer! WHAT A CLASSIC SHOW! - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 10:24am | ||
| Shaggy User Info... | Anyone remember Binkley and Doinkle? Was kinda a precursor to Mr Yuck in the early 70's. They used to go to elementary's and do lil puppet shows as well. - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 10:36am | ||
| METALNECK User Info... | Remember Mr. Do? Pacman evolved into a bunny. - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 1:07pm | ||
| Anonymous User Info... | Hehe...."Gem" (Truly, truly, truly outrageous!?), and "Fraggle Rock". - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 2:09pm | ||
| Tragedy User Info... | The Muppets kicked ass. I always hated those fags in fraggle rock. - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 4:28pm | ||
| Robnoxious User Info... | Banana Splits and H.R. Puffnstuff on T.V., Kelly's Records and Fun City here in town. - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 4:42pm | ||
| Gabri~hell User Info... | Tragedy--I am with you on the Muppets! One of the all-time best shows. The movies don't do the actual shows any justice. I hope there is some Muppet syndication in the works. And "The Faggles" were definitely a lapse in the judgement of the otherwise brilliant Jim Henson. Radishes taste like ass. I also fondly remember the "Don't drown your food" warnings/mantra. It must have worked to a degree, because I still think about that song when I use condiments. How about books? Stephen Cosgrove (the Serendipity series), Beverly Cleary, Judy Blume, Seuss (before his wife ruined everything)... Ahhh, childhood! Great thread!!! - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 5:26pm | ||
| anti-blue-up User Info... | I grew up with one channel so I was deprived of most of the shows you guys are talking about but does anyone remember the old National Film Board spots that used to run. There was the Log driver song, the one where the eggs keep cracking and trying to fix themselves, the first nations jackets and stuff, the big snit, etc. I loved those things man! I think the blonde lady from Video Hits was named Samantha. - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 6:07pm | ||
| RSBF User Info... | remember Benji? The Littlest Hobo? Gremlins? E.T.? i am loving this thread. time to make babies and live it all over again ; ) - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 8:24pm | ||
| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | Hey metalneck, Mr. Do was a clown not a bunny. I miss my Colecovision! WWF Rock n Wrestlin' was a great toon Superfriends too here's some good 80's humour: http://www.seanbaby.com/ - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 8:41pm | ||
| lonemonk User Info... | For anyone from southern ontario: Hilarious House of Frightenstein! CHCH (11) in Hamilton. 60 minutes of psychedelia Canadian style. Billy Van, Vincent Price + Others. Too bad there are no official recordings left, and the Americans cut up most of the episodes they had into 30 minute segments. Still, it remains a righteous show. Billy Van died last yeat if I'm not mistaken. Check eBay, you can find many episodes for sale at a good price. Or, Goto: http://www.frightenstein.com/ (Hopefully they still have the downloadable episode) Wake up at 6:00am, leave your jammies on, get some mega-sugar cereal and pop one of those in the DVD player. Remember, its never to early to smoke hash. Update: Apparently there are some Bit Torrent files of this show out there. (http://dessent.net/btfaq/) I suggestion ya'll download Bit Torrent anyway, it is quickly replacing all previous version of P2P-type applications. (Kazaa, Limewire, etc) - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 11:13pm | ||
| anti-blue-up User Info... | Lonemonk, that show totally ruled! The wolfman was my favorite, even though the psychedelic backgrounds were almost seizure inducing. Does anyone remember Danger Bay? - Sat, 10 Apr 2004 11:45pm | ||
| Nocturna User Info... | House of Frightenstein rocks! They were playin re-runs of that last year. I always enjoyed SCTV and SNL....back when the old crew were on and skits were actually funny. Just saw the re-run of Boomtown Rats on SCTV...Geldof, what a honey. Mmmm Mmm! Gone & best forgotten...Charlie's Angels, which was responsible for destroying the self image of every young girl who couldn't quite capture the Fawcett Feather. Blech! Why they keep making movies out of crappy 70's t.v. is beyond me. Blacklight Disco Roller-Skating anyone? - Sun, 11 Apr 2004 5:55am | ||
| Masturbating The War God User Info... | Remember that comerical with, I think, Bare Naked Ladies, they were singing on this planet all in different colours and polka dots, about the harmony of different people? Some shows I remember; Racoons, Smoggies, Captain Planet, He Man, Transformers, Inspector Gadget, My Pet Monster, Dino the Dinosaur(might be making that one up) Air Wolf, A-Team, Hawaii 5-0, I have so many memories of watching the news too, especially on CTV...not sure why... I also remember fragments of shows I can't piece together, some car/machine show where I think they changed shape, and they had human buddies who drove/operated them. almost along the lines of Speed Racer. - Sun, 11 Apr 2004 7:33am | ||
| jay brown User Info... | h.r. puffenstuff, wow I had actually forgotten that one. o.k. books from childhood, what about the Narnia series huh. More cartoons, Snaggletooth, yogi and booboo, deputy dog...bwahahahahah. Rocket Robinhood sucked I always hated it. The Dukes of Hazzard, a couple of "good old boys" in a car with a confederate flag on it, I bet that was a huge hit in Harlem. Threes company, and then when it ended Jack had that spin off that bombed after a couple of seasons. Oh more cartoons, what about the Superfriends.. Wonder twin powers activate, form of a bucket of ice. Where the fuck did the bucket always come from he could only form into water. Go back a little farther, my three sons, the dick van dyke show,the andy griffith show. Remember the song they whistled at the beginning? Come on think about it, it's gonna be in your head all day now. - Sun, 11 Apr 2004 8:55am | ||
| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | Those of us who grew up in BC watching Seattle TV will remember watching J.P. Patches(not to mention his tranny friend Gertrude). Damn, that was a great show! - Sun, 11 Apr 2004 9:22am | ||

| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | "Oh yeah and that 3's company spin off was called "2's a crowd" It was called "Three's A Crowd". You see, Jack and his fiancee move into the apartment above the resraunt that he has just leased. Just as they're about to "get down" the door opens to reveal the said fiancee's father(who doesn't like Jack). The reason he's there is simple; he bought the building. TV was such a great babysitter! - Sun, 11 Apr 2004 5:49pm | ||

| davescene User Info... | For me it was all about Land of the Lost and the sleestacks - they were so scary, creeping around in those caves. HR Puff & Stuff, Star Blazers rocked. Typical evening for me... Greatest American Hero (and his mentor in the motorhome) Knight Rider (yer goddamn right), Dukes of Hazzard (moonshine and motoring) If I managed to squeak in some roller skating at the Oak Bay Rec that would have been an awesome Friday night for me. - Tue, 13 Apr 2004 8:29am | ||

| Helonwheels User Info... | RE: My Pretty Pony "Not officially a part of the My Little Pony family, My Pretty Pony was Hasbro's predecessor of My Little Pony. She was made by Romper Room (a division of Hasbro), and later by Hasbro itself in 1981. Much larger than the Little Ponies we knew in the following years, My Pretty pony stood about 10 inches tall and originally looked like any oridinary toy pony. However, with her many accessories for grooming and dress-up, and later, a pastel makeover, My Pretty Pony was quickly evolving into the decade's most beloved collection of model horses, My Little Pony."

| jackass User Info... | HOLY SHIT! I'm OLD! How did this happen to me? I remember when the biggest thing in cartoons was when you got to see Cobra Commander's face in GI Joe the movie! I complain about today's music, I hate teenagers and pre-teens, I'm more into politics and global events than ever before, I relate with my parents as friends (as opposed to the parent/child relationship), I pay taxes and think about things like painting and gardening on the weekends. ...sigh. It's all downhill from here. At least I'm not into breeding right now and don't have a mortgage. - Tue, 13 Apr 2004 1:48pm | ||

| _Griphin_ User Info... | Whoa! Bringing back memories. Well let's see, I grew up in a British household in Sooke, so I of course watched as much British SciFi as possible (I too stayed up past 2am watching Dr. Who on KVOS TV-12). I remember eagerly awaiting the TV Guide to see which cartoons would hit the fall schedules. Saturday Morning Cartoons were "must see TV". Yep, JP Patches always got ya going in the morning (as far as I know he's still alive and still doing that). Gee what else. Watched both Star Blazers and Robotech series (cause back then, Anime was rare). I also worked on a video show for 5 years on Friday nights, this was back before Much Music was free. Anyone remember the House of Commons video? I always made sure we played it every week. One thing I used to watch Sunday nights, wrestling (WWF and NWA, Four Horsemen, WOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!) oh and Saturday afternoons on Channel 13. Saw all the SCTV episodes when they were first released. Wow, I could babble about this for hours. - Wed, 14 Apr 2004 7:26pm | ||
| Instrument of Karma User Info... | space 1999, space ghost, battlestar galactica, and the tuesday night cliffhanger trilogy. Oh,yeah...the Fall Guy and the Six Million Dollar Man. Quincy? ...and knowing is half the battle. - Wed, 14 Apr 2004 8:52pm | ||
| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | I still watch CHiPS on TBS all the time. I managed to get the infamous "punk episode" on tape. Sweet Cheese! - Wed, 14 Apr 2004 9:56pm | ||
| _Griphin_ User Info... | Infamous Punk episode?!? Not the one where the chick is in a New Wave Band (it's like punk, cept we're more laid back) and Ponch really likes the music, is it?!? (yes, I watch CHiPS on TBS too :) Hey I fergot about Space 1999, I've seen every episode of it, can't wait to buy it on DVD. Space 1999 was probably the most realistic space series on TV up to that point, something to do with NASA giving input into the physics of the spacecrafts on lunar surfaces. - Wed, 14 Apr 2004 10:05pm | ||
| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | No, the one where the punk band(Pain) is beating people up and stealing their equipment. They get in a big chase with Jon & Ponch who end up having to go to a "punk club" to set things straight. In the end Ponch prefers disco. - Thu, 15 Apr 2004 6:09am | ||
