very little me:
- The Fall Guy
- Hello Spencer
- He-Man (I loved Sceletor)

slightly older me:
- Pinky and the Brain

There must have been more, though.

Press Gang!

Yeah Dolly - very good!

How many more have you got? How about a Fraggle Rock one where maybe Junior Gorg catches Uncle Travelling Matt and has a barbecue?

Yes! I loved that show I want the DVD boxset.

Loved the Charlie Chalk theme tune. :)

How about Josey's Giants & er what was it called? Northern thing I think, about a fat kid (with a trumpet maybe). Shows title was his name I believe. Great theme tune on that too.

Beastman Vs Skeletor

Classic!!!

Smurfs were my favorite.
I was obsessed with GI JOE cartoons and action figures.
Advetures of Gummi Bears were great!
Muppet Babies.
Garfield and Friends.
Beetlejoice
Inspector Gadget was sooooo good. I still watch them when they come on.
The Read Ghostbusters, that was great.
M.A.S.K. was cool and so were their toys with the magnets on the feet.
I still say Teddy Ruxpin was an incredibly original kids show.
X-Men!!!
Degrassi Junior High (gotta give props to a great Canadian teen-drama)
Astroboy (I just re-watched the entire series remastered it was awesome!!!!)
Robotech didn't age so well but it really set the bar for sci-fi cartoons. It also scared me for life when half the cast of the first season get's killed off in the war.
Dino-Riders was good. I had them all on tape when I was a kid.
Ewoks (we are the e-e-e-e-eeeeeeewoks)

But one children's show I really really really have to recommend is Jim Henson's The Storyteller. Tooootally underrated family show of different folk tales told with Jim Henson puppets. I have the series at home and watch it often still. My favorite is the story of the man who beat the devil and death. Sooooooooo good.
