I never had a Teddy Ruxpin, but some of my friends did! He had this little tape you could put in his back and he'd tell you a story (or something like that). Oh and my best friend has a pillowcase with him on it.

Sorry about mentioning Power Rangers, BoP, but that was my favorite show when I was in KG! I always wanted to be the pink one...I think Kimberly was her name? Oh and I had a Power Rangers party when I turned 6, I think.

cassiopeia · 07-26-2002, 02:13 AM

Oh my god, Power Rangers was so dumb! The enemies were so stupid, they just wore boxes or something really cheap and crappy.

I love the muppets and Fraggle rock. Those big monster things were scary! And those poor little things (dozers or something like that?) that had to build stuff. Brings back fond memories.

Oh back in the day when i was young we had proper cartoons non of the sick fart and sick jobs and just twisted stuff that seems to be about these days. When i was young it was transformers and thundercats. Good quality cartoons them. Then teenage mutant ninja turtles me and my mates used to have the colouring in books oh and goastbusters. but the daddy of all programs was the A team. For people who do not know what the A Team is find out because its the coolest program ever.

MY last cartoon i watched was spiderman. ever noticed how most conversations in a pub come back to the tele u watched as kids?

Well of course I think it's stupid now, but back then I was enthralled with it! (So was every other kid in my class, but...that's beside the point.

)

Oh, and I forgot about Saved by the Bell, California Dreams, Family Matters, Full House, and Punky Brewster. I don't remember Punky Brewster that well, but the rest of those shows I just had to get home from school to watch.

How could I have forgotten that one?!I used to have the biggest crush on the guy that played Zack!

Lizra · 07-26-2002, 04:46 PM

Though I loved it at the time, cartoons took a weird turn with Ren and Stimpy.

Kelly was hot too. And to me, Elizabeth Berkley was Jessie Spano. Imagine my shock when Elizabeth went and did Showgirls.

BeardofPants · 07-28-2002, 05:01 PM

Now if there's one person that genuinely made me want to go homicidal, it was Steve bloody Erckel!
