Favorite Childhood TV Shows

There's lots to talk about on the smaller screen.

Favorite Childhood TV Shows

Postby XxEnslavedNekoxX » Sun Jun 28, '09, 4:01 pm

When we were kids, we all had tv shows that we absolutely loved to no end. Perhaps we will still watch these shows now as we are adults (Or teenagers). So which shows do you remember from your childhood that you absolutely loved?

For me it would have to be the following:
My Little Pony
Gargoyles
Thunder Cats
Prince of Dark Water
Space Cases
Mr Rogers Neighborhood
Sesame Street
Jungle Cubs

I went for most of the action shows when I was a kid.

He-Man
Thundercats
Gargoyles (until it moved to Saturday, then it got lousy)
Prince Valiant
Transformers
Ninja Turtles (I haven't seen the old one in years, but I did like the new one also)
Silverhawks

And a few others I probably don't even remember. Most of the comic book based shows like Batman, Superman, etc., too.

PBS Shows:
Lamb Chop's Play-A-Long
Mr. Rogers Neighborhood
Sesame Street

The Count: Three! Three, memorable live-action childhood favorites, muwha-hah-hah-hah!
Tweeg: "Because there's never never, never, never, any trouble here in Bubbleland, Bubbleland, Bubbleland, yet for some reason this song has been stuck in my head for two decades, yes for two decades!, but the weathers always fine, and the oceans always fine, because there's never never, never, never, any trouble here in Bubbleland, Bubbleland, Bubbleland.
The Count: Two! Two decades, muwha-hah-hah-hah-hah.
In all seriousness, Mr. Rogers Neighborhood is my favorite program to ever air on PBS. Sesame Street simply fell apart after Jim Henson's death and the subsequent loss of many of it's staple characters.

Cartoons I loved as a kid (that I can remember):
A Pup Named Scooby Doo
Alvin and the Chipmunks (and Chipmunks go to the Movies)
Care Bears
Chip'n Dale: Rescue Rangers
DuckTales
Eek! The Cat
Ewoks Adventures
Exo Squad
Garfield & Friends
Glo Worms
Go Bots
Gummy Bears
Inspector Gadget
Kissyfur
Looney Tunes (These use to have a 2-hour Saturday morning block when I was little.)
Muppet Babies
Popples
Rainbow Brite
RoboTech
Scooby Doo
Shirt Tails
Snorks
Super Mario World
TailSpin
The Adventures of Raggdy Ann & Andy
The Adventures of Teddy Ruxpin
The Flinstones
The Jetsons
The Real Ghostbusters*
The Smurfs
Tiny Toon Adventures
Thundercats
TransFormers
Wuzzles

* Important differentiation as there was an older (late 70's early 80's) cartoon by the name "Ghostbusters".
There were likely others that I simply don't recall or can't remember the names of.

Now for the weird part, live action stuff I watched as a kid, a good bit of which most parents of the era likely wouldn't have allowed there kids to watch:

Airwolf
Bonanza
Daniel Boone (This use to confuse me as a kid because Fess Parker also played the part of Davey Crockett in the Disney movies.)
Fall Guy
Family Matters
Hardcastle and McCormick
In the Heat of the Night
Knight Rider
Matlock <----- Shocking as it may seem, this was my favorite.
MacGuyver (who didn't watch this?)
Major Dad
Magnum P.I.
Murder She Wrote
Perry Mason
Scarecrow & Mrs. King
Simon & Simon
ABC's T.G.I.F. (Full House, Family Matters, Step by Step)
The Cosby Show
The Equalizer
The Wonderful World of Disney (back when it was actually good)

And worth noting, there was some other comedy I use to watch about a family that had a robot girl daughter, but I fail to recall what the name of it was. Was probably twenty years ago afterall. :roll:

<sigh> Well, this was an interesting way to spend a Friday night.

I think the show with the robot daughter was called Small Wonder. I never watched it much myself, but for some reason I still remember the name. :sweat:
