So when you think back 10, 20, 50 years ago, what TV shows of your childhood come to mind?

I thought it would be interesting to reminisce, to see if we watched some of the same shows as children.

At the moment the two shows that came to mind were these two for some reason.

[See second post]

And this bloody weird show. I imagine most of the episodes would not be consider kid friendly today, but for some reason it was a kids show back in the day.

    There's some truck commercial, lately, that plays that Joe Cocker version of "With a Little Help From My Friends" and every time I hear it, my head snaps up because I think "The Wonder Years" is on. I loved that show.

    Definitely Hey, Arnold, Cat Dog and Rugrats for sure.

    Dudley the Dragon (I think this was Canadian), Mr. Dressup, Mr. Rogers, Power Rangers, Beasties, Gargoyles, Sailor Moon, Recess.

    I could be here for a while.

    I loved Recess! Remember how they used "whomp" as a curse word? That's way better than *kitten*.

    This whomps!

    What's your whomping problem?

    Whomp you!

    I remember watching Dr Who with my dad when my parents were still together, so I was less than 5. As soon as the end credits came on I had to run out of the room because the show that came on after scared me, the intro showed a monster under the bed pulling on a kids leg.

    I watched the twilight zone with my grandmother on the weekends.

    I watched the smurfs on Saturday morning because it was an hour and a half of pure cartoon, I remember thinking "no adult stuff"

    Lots of shows already mentioned, also He Man and She Ra cartoon also sticks out, Gem and the Holograms.
