Nostalgia...

[Caribou]

I just found all these clips on youtube and they remind me of when I was still a little Noukie. I'm getting all melancholic...

*sniff* I miss the good ole days.
Also, I just realised I'm probably the only dutch kid who watched all this stuff.

What makes you nostalgic?

[Randetica]

i remember shoe people and the trap door one

[camo]

Trapdoor was and still is brilliant. Thanks for reminding me (y)

[icy manipulator]

my housemate downloaded all the trap door series. its fantastic. Bangers and Mash, Bananaman, great shows too

[camo]

I'm looking for pete and pete clips now

[TOY]

My sister and I were looking up YouTube videos just the other day of shows and VHS' we used to watch.

Janosh (I forget the actual spelling- I think it's German.. or French)
Paddington
Will Quack Quack
Emmit Otter's Jug Band Christmas
The Bunny Picnic (another Jim Henson thing)
Sillyville
David the Gnome
Maple Town

Ah.. :(

Janosch...
Do you mean the story about a bear and a tiger (with a little wooden duckie) who go to find Panama?
If so, that was awesome!

edit:
I mean this one (http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/515WUikJjDL._AA240_.jpg).

YES! But on the VHS we had, they did not go to Panama. Or maybe they did? I just remember "Mail for thee tiiigerrr!!!" But there were other little episodes, too. There was this guy with a hat, and a squirrel who was always sleeping- and another with an animal couple riding the city bus, but they were fat or something so they took a taxi, and the driver was pissed- and another that took place in a garden (may have been a snail).

Nostalgia isn't what it used to be.

I had the theme tune from The Adventures Of Morph in my head the other night(y)

Yeah, we also had a show where the big bear told all kinds of stories, but it was all a spin-off from the book about Panama.
I've watched a clip from the american version btw, and it's nowhere near as good as the dutch one. The dutch one is read by a well known dutch actor/funnyman and it's full of sarcasm and dry comments, while the american one just seems...well, childish.

Most dutch kids shows are a bit weird, and have more 'layers' which children don't understand but adults do. Some of my favourites are Rembo & Rembo (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9N325QHlF4)and Purno de Purno (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fl5HMwTLIBs), which have lots of sex jokes. (One of the characters is called 'de kietelaar' which means tickler, but also clitoris.)

The Adventure Game was AMAZING! The bit where they had to walk across the maze (The Vortex!!) was my favourite.

I saw a box set of every episode of Ulysses 31 got 40 europes. Think ill get that after im finished Twin Peaks.

The grand daddy would be the Mysterious Cities of Gold, must keep my eyes peeled for that.

[Guy Incognito]

YES.


The grand daddy would be the Mysterious Cities of Gold, must keep my eyes peeled for that.

I watched that religiously when i was a kid and i dont know if i missed it but have never seen a concluding episode - i think it just stopped.


Anyone remember Battle of the Planets? I think it's still on under another name

Willie Fog - best theme tune ever

[roosta]

i did not understand that sentence :( explain please


oh, it cost 40 quid. its a mixture of obscure slang and misfortunate spelling.

[roosta]

40 quid sounds reasonable. how many dvds were in the set?

cant remember, but it was every episode, think about 26 of them?
