Shows you grew up watching.

[The Rob]

I'm interested to know which TV shows you grew up watching and loving. Shows you just couldn't miss when you'd just come home from school.

I'll kick things off:

Kenan and Kel. The soundtrack was the coolest thing I'd ever heard at the time and having watched back a few episodes on Youtube, it actually was literally hilarious! Kenan and Kel were an awesome duo and was one of the main-reasons why I LOVED Nickelodeon growing up.

 

[Nate DaMac]

I hated Keenan and Kel. As a kid and to this day.

Rugrats, FTW.

 

[The Rob]

Oh yes Rugrats. Used to be on every Saturday morning and I'd normally tape it and watch it after football training. Oh what I'd give to be 9 years old again!

 

[Nate DaMac]

Personally, I prefer adulthood. Sure the responsibility is a drag, but the freedom rules. No longer do I have to hear, "You have to go to bed at 10:00PM," or "No you can't have ice cream for breakfast," or "Get your penis out of the jelly jar." Fucking Nazi parents.

 

[Daniel]

Loved Keenan and Kel.

The first thing that came to mind was ZZZap!, a show for deaf children. I'm not deaf, it was just good.

 

[The Rob]

Yes, ZZZap, such a good show. I never realised it was made for deaf children, I just thought it was really wacky. I remember that evil girl character who would like slime/gunge people if they failed a challenge or something.

 

[Mr. Artistic guy]

I was just having this exact same conversation with someone else, Keenan and Kel for sure. Hey Arnold also did it for me.

EDIT: ZZZAP was made for deaf children?

 

[The Rob]

Get Your Own Back was a classic as well. I was actually very close to getting me and my teacher on there at one point.

 

[Father Uncle Oscar]

I couldn't go through my afternoon without my daily dose of Rocket Power.

Edit: THEY'RE BRINGING A BUNCH OF SHOWS (from my generation) BACK! Including Rocket Power, Hey Arnold, and Beavis and Butthead!!! So fucking pumped!!

 

[Mr. Truth]

BTAS x1000000

I was surprised when I heard it. I didn't realise it at the time but on reflection...

Also, Recess was fan-fucking-tastic.

The Nick shows coming back was just a troll that got attention and mass believes. No proof that they are brining them back so far. Bevis and Butthead is coming back though.

Toonami was the shit. Dragon Ball Z and all the other action animes. I also loved the original pokemon series

The Moomins. Recently relived them thanks to a brief visit to Helsinki airport.

Sorry man, BnB is not your're generation. You were like 2 or 3 when the show went off the air.

 

[Father Uncle Oscar]

That's very true. I had just remember BnB and I decided to throw it in there.

 

[Super Hans]

Captain Planet, Whacky Races, Catch the Pigeon, Hey Arnold, The Demon Headmaster, Grange Hill. The list is endless.

 

[Remix]

A wholesome mix of Thomas the Tank Engine, Tellytubbies, Wacky Races, Catch the Pigeon, Power Rangers, VR Troopers, Keenan and Kel, Rugrats, Recess, Hey Arnold, Doug, Pokemon and Digimon.

 

[Mr. Artistic guy]

The Moomins. Recently relived them thanks to a brief visit to Helsinki airport.

Oh the moomins, that was a hell of a programme. "The moomins are having fun day after day". Looking back at it, that was surely japanese anime was it not?

SHUT UP BUTTDUMPLING

We're wasted.

It was Finnish. It was a comic strip first then a cartoon.

 

[Super Hans]

It was Finnish. It was a comic strip first then a cartoon.

It was complete and utter shit, thats what it was. I would probably love it now whenever im high though

 

[Mr. Truth]

No one else here loved BTAS growing up? If you were growing up in the 90s you had to have watched a ton of it.

I still watch it today, I don't think it's really a childhood show for me in that way.

 

[Mr. Truth]

I loved it when I was doing reruns when I was like 8, and I still love it at 21. Says something about how great a show it is. Or it says something about how much I've matured. Either way, Batman is the shit.

 

[Nate DaMac]

I used to watch a lot of Wonder Years as a kid too, just to stop the stranglehold cartoons have on this conversation. Also, Xena.
