What was your fav kids program when you was a wee nipper!?

[weasel]

I was on Youtube earlier and ended up flicking through a load of old 1980's cartoons, yeah, I was bored.

I'd forgotten how good some of the theme tunes were, Knightmare, Transformers, A-team, Nightrider, Air-wolf, Wacky races, Visionaries, Mr Benn, hell even Blockbusters had a great theme tune!

Just wondering what everyones favourite (doesn't have to be just one) kids program was when they were growing up.

PS, Pete if you say 'Care bears' I'm gonna have to ban you! :lol:

:lol: :lol: :lol:

When I was about 8 it was He-Man all the way - I had all of the figures but my mum and dad didn't have the sense to buy double amounts and keep me a spare figure MOC!

Then went to Thundercats and Transformers with Silverhawks

I remember as a young teen being obsessed with wrestling and having a pile of WWF videos that when piled up were higher than me!

Then I grew up and started collecting toys

I got the "he-man" boxed set for xmas a few years ago, stuck it on one day and it lasted about 30 seconds. I never realised as a kid but **** ME HE-MAN WAS GAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah i remember Manimal but you are the only other person i've ever spoken to that does. A while ago i was trying to explain it to all my friends and got some strange looks. It only ran from September 30 to December 17, 1983. Just 8 episodes were filmed.

Here's the opening sequence-
