Ah man, Denver the last dinosaur! He's your friend and a whole lot more. Hmmm.....

Just remembered, the family ness, legends! Another quality theme tune too. You'll never find a nessie in the zoo

Sooty was a classic, I didn't like it when they changed it to them working in the shop though. Little cousin Scampi was a nob.

It's the kind of thing they often show here at Christmas. And it wouldn't surprise me if it's on again sometime this year...
I think I was a bit unclear. I was saying that the art quality of the series was good. I can't remember how the art was in the movie. And I guess I judged the plot by the quality of other sequels.

But why, oh why is there no DVD collection of the series?!

I'm surprised by this. After all, Disney normally enjoy making money ...

Its pink panther tradition that it doesnt talk. Gosh, it sounds so wrong when he talks now.

No way, man. Chucklevision is an enduring legend that stands up to this day. As proven by the fact it's still on Children's BBC.

Speaking of which: Bodger and Badger is still on too. It's got a mouse in it now! I don't like the mouse. Badger seems much less interested in mashed potato, too, and everybody knows Badger loves MASHED POTATOES. Or so the theme tune still says. Rubbish!

Oh, and don't get me started on the new Sooty. First they brought in that dirty interloper Cousin Scampy and then they went all animated! Pathetic. Oh, the panda was Sue by the way.

It's the playbus! But where will it stop?
I seem to remember only liking it on Mondays, that Why-bird was the only character worthy of my precious childish time!

Heeey, Steve Martin is funny, and I think that film will be great


I also remember Duck Tails, Tail Spin and Darkwing Duck cant remember wich ones were spin off of wich, i think it was in the order I said them

And Inspector Gadget had the best theme tune Ever!

Is "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" the one with kids telling scary stories around a campfire (if I remember correctly). That one really ruled. It scared me to death when I was a kid.
