What were your favorite TV shows as a child?
This can be cartoon or not. It can be a show for children, or just something you liked to watch.
1-Are You Afraid of the Dark- these were so corny, but I loved them anyway 2- You Can't do that on Television- I miss this show so much 3- Double Dare 4- The Dick Van Dyke show- around age 12, I would stay up late at night during summer to watch this on Nick at Nite 5- The Monkees- I had the biggest crush on Mickey- the drummer. |
A-team
V Rockford Files Starsky and Hutch Twilight Zone Flintstones Space 1999 Man, I'd pay real money for full seasons of some of those on DVD now. :D I already have all of the Twilight Zones and Space 1999 - now we just need the rest. |

Also missed is Transformers (the original) and Fraggle Rock when I was a pre-teen. |
The greatest part about being a kid was you could love shows even though they were kinda crappy. This reason allows me to enjoy certain shows that I would probably not enjoy if they premiered today... case in point:
1) MacGyver 2) The Greatest American Hero 3) Small Wonder Even if these shows were actually good or not isn't the point... its all about the filter I see them through now... |
ALF
Thundercats Transformers Go-Bots You Can't Do That On Television Dukes Of Hazzard Almost Live (anyone remember this, with Bill Nye the Science Guy before he was the Science Guy?) Speaking of science... Mr. Wizard! *edit- Perfect Strangers and The Golden Girls |
Dukes of Hazzard
Different Strokes He-Man Thundercats Dungeons and Dragons Land of the Lost Dr Who |
Well, depending on which point in my childhood it was...
TMNT C.O.P.S. (Fighting crime in a future time) Today's Special (when I was a lot younger) Ren & Stimpy Etc. |
Man, I think I was into pretty much every show that's been listed here, at some point or another (yes, I was a TV child).
A few that haven't been mentioned: Batman The Animated Series Conan the Adventurer Quantum Leap |
Speed Racer
Lost In Space Gigantor Davey and Goliath... NOT |

Ah, those truly were the best days ever... |
Does anyone remember Spectreman. None of my friends remember it. I thought it was the coolest show when I was little, though I can't remember too much about it now, other than I thought it was great!
Also, Thundercats, Knight Rider, Double Dare was cool too. |

Smurfs
Transformers carebears alf punky brewster you cann't do that on tv |
Monkey!!! I still watch it all the time.
In the time before Monkey, primal chaos reigned. The heavans sought order. But the pheonix can fly only when its feathers are grown. The four worlds formed again and yet again as endless eons wheeled and passed. The powers of the moon and the rain all worked on a certain rock as old as creation. This rock became magically fertile. This egg was named 'thought'. Takatha the Buddha, the father Buddha, says "With our thoughts we make the world". Elemental forces caused the egg to hatch. From it emerged a stone monkey. The nature of Monkey was irrepressable!!! |
I totally forgot about Small Wonder. That show was awesome.
Muppet Babies David the Gnome Gummie Bears Under the Umbrella Tree- I always hated that show! I don't miss it at all. Two shows that no one can remember and I cannot remember the name of: There was a show on Nickeloden about some girl that had a magic koala and a eucalyptus tree in her room. Also, there was a short lived adultesque cartoon about fish, I think one was a detective. |
Code Red
Dukes of Hazzard Mash Great space coaster Magic Garden Justice league of America Sanford and son You can t do that on television Welcome back Kotter Taxi Good times Mork and Mindy Man I must have watched a lot of TV Yup those were great shows. I also used to watch almost live (it s Seattle besed I believe) also you had Kids in the hall. but I discovered both of those shows when I was older |
The Muppet Show
Wonder Woman Fraggle Rock Family Ties The Cosby Show Cheers Square One (math show on PBS; I know, nerdy - and I didn't even like math, which makes it worse!) You Can't Do That On Television (with you all the way, Rubyee - whatever happened to Moose and Alistair?) The Magic Garden (with Carole and Paula) Cartoons: He-Man Spiderman Superfriends Great thread, this really took me back! |

when i was in 1st or 2nd grade for a couple of weeks i got by with sneaking outta bed & hanging behind the couch to watch "bewitched". i was so intrigued with it. finally i got caught & happily got my bedtime extended. thank you samantha stevens ;D
<small>ack! that dates me so...</small> |
Ah great memories!
Davis the Gnome was the man. One that wasn't mentioned was Heithcliff. i remeber that i learned a sweet comeback from the smart ass in the cartoon that accomanied the heaithcliff cartoon (the one where these cats lived in a junk yard but had a cool set up), and i used it on my mom and she was pissed. I never used it again. How about the Rescue Rangers. Gummi Bears. They would drink that stuff and start jumping around. I swear it was PCP. Thundercats. There was one on Nicolodeon. it had a guy with a sword adn wierd animal twins that would unite and start singing and would power up the guys sword. The song had to do with Arcadia. I think they were from there. last but not lest: THE NINENDO CARTOONS! Legend of Zelda, Mario Bro, the Super Mario Super Show with Captain Lou Albano. "Step right up, and move from side to side... do the mario." Tiny Toons Adventures God, kids today are missing out. |
Today's Special....I remember thinking the mannequin was cute.
David and the Gnomes....I wanted a pointy hat just like theirs. Full House Sesame Street (Hell, I still enjoy that...) They really don't make children's programming like they used to. |
late 80s early 90s ninja turtles..and some he-man in there too.
