Kids TV Shows

[PJ87]

The kids of today have no interest in crappy old TV from the 80s, put it on, they laugh and turn it over. Like a lot of stuff from yesteryear, its best left there.

You would be surprised.. they still make the clangers!

Postman pat is still on.. but wow he is painted like a superhero now

ah UFO, great spot!
We had UFOmcars/vehicles with bits that flicked out of the side, and if I remember rightly shot little orange darts out the front, or something like that

Yep the interceptors fired rockets from the front and the Shado Mobiles had a flip lid that then fired rockets from the top. If you have Forces TV (Channel 450 on Sky) there are two episodes on this afternoon. Then again, some sad people like me have the box set DVD!

captain pugwash with seaman staines was always worth watching .lol. [yeh i know seaman staines wasnt in it]
noggin the nog was good and my favourite was pogles wood with pippin and tog.
anyone remember the singing ringing tree, dubbed but great story of the beauty and the beast.
jeremey irons doing play school was good
mary mungo and midge
hectors house was always a guessing game as to what kind of hector he was going to be.
bill and ben
the wooden tops
andy pandy with looby lou.
wacky races was the best cartoon series and they ought to make a real life version using Alist actors ,it would be a right blast.
thunder cats was always fun to watch
he man was another top show.
many more im sure but the king of all was as already mentioned was THUNDERBIRDS with sting ray a close second.

I’d love to see Space 1999 remade might need to re-work the title.

I was flicking through Netflix sci fi last night and spotted UFO had to do a double take to check it was the original series. Defintely one for the adults and not the children.

If it’s on Saturday mornings before World of Sport, I reckon it counts😉.

Correct - an embarrassment to the name. Captain Scarlet is still watchable too but the best of all was UFO, the first Gerry Anderson production with real actors. Not really a kids show but I loved it when I was young.

Currently being re-run on Forces TV. Still a good watch

Do Not Adjust your Set was my all time favourite.
