The Partridge Family featured the brilliant song, "I Think I Love You."

Quote: Dolly Dagger @ April 3 2010, 2:08 PM BSTI vaguely remember some other show that was similarirly epic and dubbed. IIRC it was set/made in Russia about some guy in some historical time and he went blind, possibly due to a fire and then he had to cross a river and arrived in some Russian city. No one else knows what I'm talking about when I mention this. It was on in the 80s, early evening on BBC2 in the same slot as Monkey, etc.
Michael Stroganoff?
Quote: Kenneth @ April 3 2010, 2:17 PM BSTI have a vivid memory of a sci-fi show called something like 'Adam Acadamission' (though I may be completely wrong on the name), which I watched in the early 1980s. It might have been foreign and dubbed into English. There were hermaphrodite-like youngsters in some sort of regimental future society, where people were identically dressed. The plots were quite gripping and seemed very adult.
Adam Adamant perhaps?

The Long Chase (with a very young Jan Francis)

Belle and Sebastian

Yes! That's it...well Michael Strogoff. No one else has ever remembered that show.

No, it was very sci-fi and in colour, and seemed to be made in the late '70s or early '80s.

I think maybe I used to watch that. But I was so little I can't remember. It was something weird and foreign and dubbed.

Adam 84?

A Czech prog
The Singing, Ringing Tree
From Wiki:
'One reviewer (Roger Thomas at amazon.com) has summed it up thus:
Imagine a fairy tale conceived by Wagner and directed by Fritz Lang, with nods in the direction of The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari and German expressionism, and you'd be close.
A Radio Times readers' poll in 2004 voted this programme the 20th spookiest TV show ever.'
It was rather weird.

The minging, minging, tree.
I believe it starred George Micheal
I have for ages been trying to find an obscure Czeklovakian police procedural. I think it was called the 12 investigations of Inspector Zamma.
There was a feature where he busted The Plastic People of the Universe.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNR4kR1uC-w&feature=related
Anyone know where I can get a translation of this North Korean classic?
Am I the only person who remembers Gilligan's Island being shown over here? I think it used to be on Saturday evenings in the late '80s. Admittedly, it was only on for a short spell.
Who remembers Tales of the Gold Monkey and Bring 'em Back Alive?
Definitely never saw Gilligan's Island. Was it on some obscure Sky channel?

Yes, sorry I made a bit of a goulash of the name.
