Favorite TV shows as a kid?

Postby **Sheenar** » Sat Mar 01, 2008 12:46 pm

Gargolyes
Beakman's World
Darkwing Duck
Salute Your Shorts
The Adventures of Pete and Pete
Mighty Max
Animaniacs
Talespin
Dinosaurs
The Adventures of Tintin
National Geographic
Jack Hannah's Animal Adventures
The Weather Channel

Yeah, I know, I was a nerd as a kid (with those last 3), but I loved nature shows (and still do).

And what was that show with the family that was driving, fell in a canyon, and lived in a land of dinosaurs? I loved that one.

I still enjoy cartoons immensely. Current favorites: Jane and the Dragon, Sagwa the Chinese Siamese, Ed, Edd, and Eddy and then the usual nature shows and Discovery channel

I'm impressed that someone's heard of it!
And my brother does have them on DVD.

I'm in the states, East Coast. I loved that show so much! I think it had about 2 seasons? Every Sunday I was at my T.V at 3:00pm it aired here and did not get up until it was over ^__^. I believe it was the Disney Channel that used to broadcast it here because it was in a line up with Flash Forward and Ready or Not. Disney aired alot of CTV shows like Tales of Avonlea (I love that show too!) Though wasn't Spellbinder like an Australian show or something?

AND WHERE ON EARTH DID HE GET THE SEASONS!? I have looked everywhere but even the Aussie and Canadian sites do not have them in stock or they are out of print. It's driving me mad! ^__^

On a side note: 100 posts! Woo-hoo!

Yep, Spellbinder was made by Australian/Polish television organisations, and was set in Sydney, and (at least some of) the parallel worlds were filmed in Poland.

My brother bought them from ezydvd (http://www.ezydvd.com.au/), but he bought them from the physical store, not online (but you can get them online too). Surely there would be other online stores that would have it too...?

I could never forget, this was one of my favorite saturday morning cartoons of all time;

I love that one much better than the other Sonic cartoon because it had a better plot line.

This was also one of my absolute favorites. Anyone know if it's available on video somewhere?

I've seen it a lot on Youtube for these past few days, but unfortunatley I didn't hear about it ever being released on DVD

I suppose if no one else will be the first to admit this one, I will:
Pee-Wee's Playhouse. Hey, this was back when we were kids and we didn't know what a creep Paul Reubens really is. And I defy anyone to tell me they didn't dig Pee-Wee's Big Adventure.

Oh! 3, 2, 1, Contact! And Pinwheel! And what was that math show? I forget the name of it. It kind of put me in an awkward position because my hatred of math never changed but I liked the show.
