Okay, something got me to thinking and wondering what my fave children's tv show of all time is....but i can't decide.
Grange Hill early 80s was great, Home (I think that was what it was called about a chuldren's home remarkably) or Chocky!
What is yours?

Ralph Waldo Emerson: We ask for long life, but 'tis deep life, or noble moments that signify. Let the measure of time be spiritual, not mechanical.
This is simple! As im 34 and a child of the eighties, my favorite tv shows from when I was a kid are:
Highway to heaven.
CHiPs
The littlest hobo
The Waltons.
:D
(Land of the giants was pretty cool too!)
I used to love this one.
I could have posted a colour picture but we only had a B&W TV then.

Sad fact on these is that I think I can remember nearly all of the theme tunes virtually word for word. There was a post the other day about useless stuff people can do. I think my (most) useless feature is my ability to remember just about all the cartoon and kid's show theme tunes and lyrics.Originally Posted by Sharky
I used to love Speedbuggy (think Scooby Doo with a beach buggy instead of a great dane), I managed to get a DVD of the series and it's total crap!
TBH, I think that some of the new kids programs are great, Spongebob Squarepants is my current favourite..
Mysterious Cities of Gold
Dungeons & Dragons
Ulysses 31
