Thundercats was great. Used to be on What Now on Saturdays

I remember on wet mornings listening to the radio for rugby cancellation, and then being annoyed when it was cancelled, but then being happy that I could watch Thundercats and What Now. I also used to like Dungeons and Dragons.

Same same, plus SuperTed, Lucky Luke, Inspector Gadget, Dangermouse, some of which may never have actually been on Saturday morning TV, my memory is a touch hazy

@kiwiwomble oh man, that was my jam!! My bro and I loved both those shows.

Terrahawks was another good one.

Jeez @booboo they're blasts from the past! Back in those days of course you had no choice but to watch them, only one channel

@booboo Clarence the cross eyed lion, loved it

My 14yo daughter discovered The Golden Girls on Disney+ and loves it.

As a kid I never really understood much about it except the one-liners and wisecraks.

Watching now, man it was ahead of its time. Openly discussing health and sexual stuff that was not standard fare for back then.

@Crucial what a difference one letter makes ha ha, I thought this was going to be the brit comedy sketch show, Alas Smith and Jones

[Nevorian]

The Two Ronnies

No one did badly staged slapstick like 70’s TV shows.

Catchy theme though !

[booboo]

Following o from @Crucial 'a Alias Smith and Jones ... anyone remember Bearcats! ... ?

An absolute classic. I love watching the reruns of that show. And Hogan's Heroes. So many brilliant gags. Don't forget the Cone of Silence

[get stuffed]

@canefan Yeah, Clone of Silence is another ripper ! ...from a show that started in the 60's the phone & weapon gadgets were brilliant... as you say had plenty of good gags as well, same goes for Hogan's Heroes.

At the risk of a #booboo this popped up in my suggested YouTube videos ...

Pretty sure this has been mentioned...

. .. but getting lots of follow on vids on the series and the stories behind the show.

Awesomely cool back in the early 80s when 1999 was so far far into the future.

I used to love that show. The ships had a cool mechano-like vibe, and some pretty decent actors in there too. I didn't know it was a Gerry Anderson show

Joe 90 was on tele just at the start of my memories, perhaps a little before my time. But I do recall my older bro being a fan. And it was probably not replayable for the reasons described in the following video ...
