I never used to like Rod Hull and Emu much, and the stage-school kids dancing around were annoying. But I ADORED Grotbags! notworthy

With a 8 year old and a 3 year old i watch a lot of kids tv again . Phineas and Ferb is very popular in my house as is Peppa Pig and also Ben and Holly's little kingdom .

But they are not as good as Ivor the Engine , Bagpuss , Trumpton .......i could go on ( and i have bought them all on dvd for me !)

I'd happily watch Phineas and Ferb even when the kids have gone to bed, it's really well put together!

"Malcolm in the Middle" was brilliant but more of a teens/adult show.

When I was a kid(Well I still am but y'know...)

Keenan and Kel
Grange Hill
Wacky Races
Scooby Doo
Hong Kong Phooey
Top Cat
The Flinstones
The Jetsons
Dennis The Menace

But seen as my brother still watches kid's tv, I have to say I do enjoy Phineas and Ferb.Can't say I ever got the fuss surrounding Spongebob Squarepants, just don't think it's that funny.

I think they should bring back Knightmare.

Can you imagine how much better it could be with modern graphics??

Or would that make it lose it's kitsch value??

I agree on both points - they should bring it back but it would lose some of its charm.

Oohhhh - nasty.

Byker Grove was quite good, especially when they had turf wars with the kids from Denton Burn.

I used to like Heartbreak High. Anyone remember that? It was an early '90s Aussie teen drama set in a rough Sydney school. They used to swear on it so I thought it was pretty cutting edge at the time Rolling Eyes

Yeah I watched Heartbreak High.

I liked that guy Bolton, the sidekick of Peter Rivers.

Ah remember it well.

They did quite a few series, only really watched the first 2.

The Red Hang Gang was another i watched.
Rent A Ghost(think thats what it was called).

Any Irish viewers on here remember Finbar's Class, possibly the worst programme ever, only watched it, cos my cousin was in it.

I remember Rentaghost. Very strange programme really...I never really got what it was about...but then I don't think kids were meant to understand their own TV shows in those days.

I wasn't allowed to watch Rentaghost because my mum assumed from the name of the show that it must be sinister (she's quite religious). The same went for Thundercats because she thought Mum-Ra was 'satanic' and we couldn't watch Home and Away for a while because Bobby 'had a bad attitude.' She wouldn't let my youngest sister watch The Demon Headmaster, either.

rentaghost was fantastic. Whilst at uni, people said I looked like Timothy Claypole when I grew a goatie!

It was a light hearted comedy for kids - great stuff.

One of the Japanese cartoons I mentioned (Tenchi Muyo) wouldn't get on TV now. They actually had naked women in that. I used to watch it after school when I was 11, suprised that Cartoon Network were allowed to show that in the first place.

Gaelic - a manga cartoon called Battle of the Planets used to be on when I was a kid, but it was heavily edited for UK audiences.

I'm suprised that wasn't edited out. Mind you I've seen the Japanese version since it was even more graphic.
