Memories of childhood TV shows

[RedmanWasHere]

My avatar boys.

I've seen every episode 3 or 4 times and they are classics.

What show is that?

 

[spongebucket]

Just a few of the shows I used to watch as a kid, many more I could probably add but wont.

Donna Douglas who played Elly May Clampett in the Beverly Hillbillies has died at the age of 81......I don't feel old at all

RIP Donna Douglas.
One of the best shows from my childhood.

I wish I could ride a bumper car like this:

Catweezle not the cartoon, the real thing.

The telling bone, shine tiny sun, etc.

Salmay, Dalmay, Adomay.

And 'electrickery'. I've got a Catweazle T-Shirt with Salmay, Dalmay, Adonay on the front and "Nothing Works!" on the back!

Apparently a third series was planned but London Weekend Television only had enough money to make one children's show in 1972 and chose Black Beauty over Catweazle

Also a Catweazle dictionary lives here..

This pretty much sums up my childhood. Kids these days don't know what they're missing out on!

As a kid i watched Sesame Street religiously and as a teen it was Get Smart, F-Troop, Motor Mouse, Batfink, Looney Tunes, Land of the Giants and Mash.

 

[North Viking]

As a kid I just couldn’t get enough of Dr Who. Tom Baker was my favourite Dr



Also can’t believe no one mentioned the Goodies. That was must see TV for me and my BMX bandit mates in the late 70’s early 80’s

Loved Land of the Giants.

Loved Lost in Space, Land of the Lost, The Munsters, The Addams Family, Greenacres and a million more as well.

Great call.

What became of Graham and Tim?

Bill Odie is the only who's maintained any sort of profile.

Graham and Tim still active on radio via the BBC.
They are both involved with a comic panel game show on BBC radio called ‘I’m sorry I haven’t a clue’. They both have been on it since 1972.
They are also regular in a host of TV series and UK sitcoms mostly playing bit par rolls. Also they both co-hosted a game show mid 2000’s for quite a few years.
Perhaps there profile is not as big in Australia since the goodies. But still reasonable in the UK.

Thanks mate. Looks like they do that show with Jack Dee. Had no idea they were still very visible within the industry and I do have some interest in the British comedy/media scene.

The Beverly Hillbillies was actually a very under rated show, Jethro easily my fave character.

One thing that stands out is the relative quality of TV theme music back then.

Oh, Land of the Giants, yeah that was one of my favourites too, how did I not remember it until I saw this?
