Did anyone else watch "Belle and Sebastian"? No one ever knows what the heck I'm talking about. It was a story about a boy who's parents had died and he lived with his aunt and uncle or grandparents and had a huge husky dog that he rode through the countryside to see his friends.

And there was that show about the koala bears. Which I never can remember anything normal about because it was one of the most screwed up shows on television, but it was so entertaining.

My brother and I used to love that show on Nickeledon. Mainly cause that 's all there was on to watch. But I do remember it.

And yes, I watched Gem, you know why? Cause it was on USA Networks' Cartoon Express.

I plan on buying the rest of the Transformers DVD's. I have Season I right now.

Now, I loved these old cartoons. And they are better then the ones now. But dang! They were so patronistic. Especially thundercats.

However, the remake of He-man was pretty good. Too bad it's gone now. :indiff:
 
Remember "The new adventures of HE MAN"? He had some blonde pony tale that made him look so gay. More like the new adventures of HE DRAG QUEEN!!

Oh and Dangermouse! But I think you have to be British to know that one!
I watched Danger Mouse all the time. It aired on Nickelodeon in the US if I remember right.

I also frequented DuckTales and Animaniacs. *checking* Nevermind, Animaniacs started in 1993 but it was still awesome.

Yes! Dangermouse was certainly in the US. I loved that show. Though I didn't understand a lot of the circumstances since it was based in Great Britain.
 
This is posted elsewhere, but I thought I would bring it up again...

Yep, I watched everyone of those toons religously except for G force. Never got into that one.
 
Hell yeah. That's 2 people who know what the hell I'm talking about now... :D
 
I have only one question to ask. Where the **** does Optimus Prime's trailer go when he transforms to robot form?!!!!!!!!!!!
 
It becomes a command centre. Duh!

Did you never have the Optimus Prime toy?
 
I always used to watch these:
-Superman
-Batman
-X-men
-Transformers
-He-Man
-Spiderman
-The Incredible Hulk
-Ninja Turtles

and there was one more cartoon wich i watched a lot but i can't remember the name.It was called _____ cats or something like that.2 cats with a bada** jet.It's one the tip of my tongue.
 
Dogtanian as Famine mentioned earlier was a great show but alas i can hardly remember much about it (i feel old). I would like to add 'The Racoons' to Saturday morning greatness as that really was a cracker. I've gotta check out this Mysterious Cities of Gold, what channel was it on Famine?
 
I got it.It was called SWAT Kats:The Radical Squadron.T-bone and Razor and their jet The Turbokat.That series was awesome.

It was another fine BBC programme. I never watched CITV, for some reason.

I know about that, and I did have the toy. But in the CARTOON!!!!!!!

The Long answer here

The short answer is that they are actually two seperate robots that are controlled by Prime at all times. So when he transforms to a robot and doesn't need them, he just sends them out of the way. Oh, wait, did I mention that it was a cartoon and that not all things are going to make sense?

How can soundwave go from a 25 foot robot to a handheld tape deck? Who really cares, it's a cartoon and it's fun. If you analyze it all, it looses it's charm.

Most annoying Transformer...StarScream / StarScreech ( forgot the exact name ) man, I wanted to zap that character

Yeah, if it wasn't for starscream, Megatron would have conqured the univers a millenia ago :lol:
 
Didn't anyone watch MASK? I used to think the vehicles and masks were so cool :) and it had catchy intro song to.

Still have my MASK toys.

Most of the 80's cartoon shows have been rereleased on DVD but I haven't seen MASK, does anyone know if it has been released on DVD or VHS (have tried Google many times but still cant find anything).

Yeah! I remember that one. Kinda strange but cool concept. I remember all the cars/trucks that had missles and what not coming out of them. Man, talk about memories. :)

Anyone remember Visionaries? That was a kinda shortlived series but pretty cool.
