I have a box set of those adaptations; Box of Delights, The Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe and The Snow Queen.
They tried to recreate that fairly recently with The Shoebox Zoo - but it never really took off (and/because they kept moving it around the schedules).
Automan, about a crime fighting hologram. I'm sure there was a character in it called Cursor.
Issi NoHo is still around, with his magic number card. http://www.issinoho.net/books_issinoho.html

Chocky, about a kid whose imaginary friend is really an alien. And Space: Above and Beyond, a mid nineties sci-fi show about humans at war with aliens. It was pretty good.
A real one now.
I have a vague memory of something called King of the Castle. Something to do with a lift.

Weird Science, the sitcom sequel to the film.
