TCC memories

Remember the childrens channel? I used to love it! Here are a selection of memories:

- They once had a promotion going where the kids would send in a crisp and if it reached them without being damaged then the kid would be rewarded some 'amazing' prize. (most popular method was a matchbox and cotton wool)

- Pugwall

- Degrassi Junior High

-Rude dog and the DweeBs!

How the hell did you remember that crisp thing?
I remember now that you said it, but I had completley forgotten about it. Saved By The Bell is all I really remember. Oh and wasn't California Dreams on it too?

California Dreams! Saved By The Bell!

Earthworm Jim! Wasn't there some sort of fake news presenter who used to introduce that, at one stage?

Gaz · 16-06-2003 12:56pm

Dont know how the hell i remember this but it was called ....

..... "Risk a Crisp"

nosmo · 16-06-2003 1:06pm

Battletech!! Earthworm Jim!!! Skeleton Warriors!!!

But towards the demise of the station they looped the same three episodes of each show. Which sucked

I must've watched that channel waaaay to much!

I also remember the Smarties competition they ran. You had to match a number or colour or something. I sent off for a pack but they sent me an apology saying the competion was over and loadsa TCC badges and stickers and stuff

They also had stuff like

CurioCity
Gareth 'Gaz Top' Jones
That show where there were loads of kids presenting and doing mad stuff
That crisp thing too

I just had to get in on the act ! The 80snostalgia.com message board fed my addiction of all things 80s but alas that is no longer.

Anyway, back to TCC, does anyone remember Telly Cat and the quarks ?!? Watched it every morning before I headed off to school.

Heheh. Link Anchorman, he was great.

I remember there wasa presenter called Jed, right annoying tit. Fantastically, he left TCC to form a band.

oneweb · 25-06-2003 9:25am

All of a sudden the proper name popped into my head.

Rude Dog and the Dweebs.

Wasn't it W12 6LH? Hm, I bet *someone* has a video arround here to help me verify - it's driving me mad now. It could be what someone else said - but I didn't think it had 7 digits? Argh.

Anyone remember "The Big Dish"? That's when I pretty much knew TCC was about to be chucked out the door... it's kinda bizarre how this channel is actually still running - to more or less every person in Ireland, it died once cablelink/NTL ditched it.

Remember that show where these mice used rock n' roll to save the world?
There was only one episode and they showed it all the ****ing time, it was worse then the OSbornes. That was the reason I'm glad they got rid of it.

Ryo Hazuki · 29-06-2003 1:22am

TCC boasts an unbeatable line-up of shows, 11 hours a day, seven days a week, from 7am to 6pm.

The website does not say it was ever shut down, Perhaps its still on somewhere......

mice used rock n' roll to save the world

"Biker Mice from Mars" ?

BoobeR · 29-06-2003 1:41am

Biker Mice from Mars SERIOUSLY ruled.
all the old x-men, spiderman, jonny quest etc

razorfeather · 29-06-2003 8:58pm

Omg!! i just remembered, THE TOY BOX

i think that's what it was called.

when all the toys would come to life????

Makaveli · 29-06-2003 9:50pm

Just remembered California Raisens.
Only one of my friends still remembers that, everyone else thinks I made it up.

D-Generate · 30-06-2003 12:07am

I remember those singing raisins too. The toy box show was called Johnson and Friends and they used also had a kid's show in the morning called Jack in the Box or somefink like that and it had a teddy-bear in it called surprise surprise..... Teddy!!

lyonsy · 01-07-2003 2:36pm

i remember it!!! what a fantastic show. i can't remember much about it, i just have this vision of them in my noggin lol. funny stuff.

maybe someone can help me out, i have this show in my head but i can't put a name to it.
it was a big green dinosaur that used to live with these teenagers? damnittttttt..i used to know the song and all but my memories gone to mush

plZZZZZ someone!!!

i think he used to wear a pink hat too or something..? and a picture of a garden springs to mind...

Ryo Hazuki · 02-07-2003 10:20pm

Skeleton Warriors was the only childrens programme I ever saw that had a last episode!

The humans won by throwing the skeletons into lava.

Anyone remember BATTLETECH?

D-Generate · 02-07-2003 11:20pm

Battletech was teh win. Marvellous animation and the storyline was su-poib. The ending was sad aswell, the guy had a showdown against the Clan Wolf on top of a Timberwolf Mech dood and he kicked the Clan Wolf guys ass and the Clan Wolf guy handed over the planet but when the good guy returned to the planet he found out that all his people had been taken as slaves, thus setting up another series which never took place.
