A 1992 hit with all the prerequisite uniform: perm, big earrings and a lot of PVC. I love the setting for this video - how exactly do you book a missile launch platform? The German duo Snap! were responsible for this club hit and UK number 1 as well as The Power which was another […]

The Getalong Gang is a fine exemplar of everything that a cartoon should be: informative, fun and featuring a moose AND a caboose.
2 words you don’t often hear in the same sentence these days, more’s the pity, are ‘moose’ and ‘caboose’. A caboose is of course the single train cart club house that the getalong […]

In a dark, dark town there was a dark, dark street
and in the dark, dark street there was a dark, dark house,

I always wondered why Clarissa was so badly dressed despite having the world’s biggest wardrobe. And why Melissa Joan Hart kept appearing on TV as the same character (she later played Sabrina the Teenage Witch). Clarissa and her Amiga tackled the issues of the day with the help of Sam and a small alligator.

Gordon the Gopher could only squeak, yet he managed to upstage Phillip Schofield most weeks by laughing for too long and pretending to be drunk.

Emma Forbes and Andi Peters started off the sequel to “Going Live” -replacing Phillip Schofield and Gordon the Gopher. Later, Zoe Ball and Jamie Theakston were to take on the mantle booting out Trev and Simon along the way. L&K had an amazing array of guests from Muse to Take That. Although ostensibly for adults, […]

Ren & Stimpy was an incredibly rude cartoon from the 1990’s full of violence and innuendo. I was even banned from watching an episode by youtube until I had confirmed my birth date!!! This stuff was going out on Nickleodeon.

Pinky and the Brain were two scheming mice that wanted to take over the world in a tried and tested slapstick fashion. Like a nicer version of Ren and Stimpy, this Steven Spielberg classic

The do-it-yourself art program presented by Neil Buchanan, who apparently never had an art lesson in his life. The best bit was where he created giant installations out of related materials e.g. a toilet made out of toilet rolls and such like.

Obviously deserving of “The Best Title Sequence Ever”. I especially like the part where half a capsicum flies towards the camera -in black and white! This series was aired in the 1970’s, 1990’s and as recently as 2007 (in radio format). It featured a group of humans who had progressed to the next stage […]

Remember watching a program where an owl asked a green monster questions and rewarded correct answers with a cool plant?

Light years ahead in terms of technology, virtual reality children’s television series, Knightmare, was actually really scary.

Another travesty of the one-hit wonder phenomenon. Good for charity though, a bit like the Peter Kay re-make of “Show me the way to Amarillo”, but much more annoying. Watch out for Jeremy Clarkson and Carol Vorderman in this video. You even get to see Mrs Blobby and Baby Blobby towards the end as well […]

Marshall Bravestarr -the intergalactic policeman of New Texas. He had the eyes of the hawk, ears of the bear, strength of the bear and speed of the puma. I tried to explain this once, to a group of drunken friends after a late shift. They didn’t remember the cartoon, but proceeded to re-enact the start […]

“By your powers combined -I am Captain Planet! Captain Planet, he’s our hero, gonna take pollution down to zero”. Who sang these things? Global activism is nothing new -Captain Planet was on to it long before Al Gore.
I always wanted the power of fire and nobody wanted the power of heart because that was just […]
