Child Item

Old and forgotten Cartoon series

skooterblue2

So how many of you have been lock in for lockdown and are remembering your childhood?

Remember when cartoons used be great with Scooby-Doo and Shaggy Whacky races and all that?

Then in the 1980 there were transformers, Gi Joe, the Real Ghost Busters, etc etc

Those older than me can remember Tintin and Asterix?

I have been looking up these and bout them (cos they are not on Torrents):

The Mysterious Cities of Gold (season 1&2)
Dogtanian
Willy Fog around the world in 80 days

Once upon a time life

Anyone else want to add more?

Great story based on the Odyssey with a better OST.
The problem is the cost of the DVD on Amazon or Ebay is ridiculous.

For about 20 or so years, in fact, as long as I can remember, I have been seeking out the name of this show about dinosaurs an island that all have individual powers [which were like office tools; see link] and it melted my head.

No one I knew remembered it at all, so it had proved almost impossible to find.

Then a few weeks ago for whatever reason through a combo of remembering old shows and tracking them down I ended up on the TCC wikipedia page and lo and behold there it was looking at me:

Check out the wayback machine for the TCC website homepage and schedule:

The itch that it scratched, was like nothing else.

I also went on and had a listen to all the earworm intros I still remember to this day like Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors, Ulysses31 and of course the king of all theme tunes:

Used to like random episodes of all the video game / Music / Movie tie in shows.

New kids on the block had a cartoon

Mc Hammer had Hammer man
Mr T had a show
There's others I just can't think right away lol.

Basically I could sit here for hours thinking of shows from when I was a kid :pac:

I regularly go on Youtube after a few drinks and dive into theme tunes from the 80s and 90s and reminisce

Dont forget:
Incredible Hulk TAS
Ironman TAS
Spiderman TAS

There are now legal problems with Marvel and lisencing. There is no way to have all the same characters in the same show due to marvel selling off some characters in their near liquidation days.

I remember a kind of adult cartoon that I stumbled on when I was a kid. It was called 'wait til your father gets home'. Bit of a precursor to family guy. I used to love it.

I remember the animation on that was very basic, especially when it showed characters running.
