If this should be in tv please move

when i was a youngin ( and im 26 so that was ages ago) i always got a peado vibe off barney- a big purple dino who kept wacking his tail off kids when he was excited:eek: (Watch him dancing he was wacking kids constantly )

and these guys..

they used to scare the life out of me. they used to show them on cartoon network in the 90s and they freaked me out ...

Even worse hanna/barbera made them! was weird watch cartoons after them

The Wombles.

The play-do figures. Like the Magic Round-About.

I still have nightmares about POB.

Yes. He is spitting at the screen. Yes that is the devil appearing.

From the makers of the tellytubbies. Just delightful for the kiddies of the late 80's :rolleyes:

Ditto.

Watched the episode where Ren pulls out the nerve endings from his gums with tweezers, recently.

Still made me shudder

Jesus I forgot the CFF films, Denis Waterman started off in them as a kid, his dad was a director of a couple of the CFF films AFAIK.

Defo Betty Boop.

Scary trippy shit pre Hays act.

mikemac1 · 23-01-2012 1:52am

There was another one but I can't remember the name
I know there were goblins and trolls and they had a song
And the boss had a pit and if a solider failed him they would be thrown to the crabs in the pit to be killed :eek:
Upsetting

There was a cartoon also set in India with a fat cat as the Raj.
And he'd have other characters executed

I had this episode of Felix on tape at home as a kid and it freaked the **** out of me.

Still does! Its ****ing terrifying, no five year old should be watching a guy getting the 'wind' knocked out of him by a load of ghosts!

When RTE didn't have money to invest in proper cartoons they would show those poxy east european ones.
They were very disturbing!

Da Shins Kelly · 23-01-2012 2:14am

Can it really be anything but Cow and Chicken? The parents not only appear to be genuinely insane, but they have no upper bodies.

Powerpuff girls was freaking badass for the most part. I loved it. There was, however, one villain who scared the living shït out of me.

Him.

That cartoon villain was the damned incarnation of evil, he even looked like Satan. Fücking creepy bastard. Still scares me, in fact, he's like a nightmare man.

policarp · 23-01-2012 2:57am

Punch and Judy.
And the policeman. . .

Charley Says. It was a series of animated public information films where a cat called Charley would give advice to the boy who owned him when the boy was about to do something stupid. Charley would miaow indecipherably but the boy would translate what he had said, which would be things like "Charley says always tell mummy where you're going" or "Charley says don't get in cars with strangers".

The cartoon was sampled by The Prodigy in the nineties for the incredibly irritating 'song' Charly.

im invisible · 23-01-2012 7:36am

Miaow miaow mew-mew mew mew.
Charley says: 'always tell your mommy before you go off somewhere'

Ulysses 31 in the 80's with their big room full of floating coma people.

Also, every single character in Robin and Rosie of Cockleshell Bay. Those dead staring eyes.....

LenaClaire · 23-01-2012 9:52am

This scene used to really freak me out when I was little, not sure why..
