Ol'time rocking kids show

Written by libra from the blog BECAUSE I CAN ... on 24 Aug 2007
Favourite this post



We all had as kids, a kidsTV show/cartoon that kept us glued to our screens.  they were popular and rocking

What kind of shows/cartoons did you watch?
Do you still find yourself glued to TV watching them even now?
Are present shows still as interesting as the ones we use to watch in the 80s and 90s.

HERE IS MY LIST OF WHAT I USE TO WATCH-(the songs are ment to remind you of how fun it was to sing a long - with wrong lyrics) 

1.Kideo - forgot the lyrics but it the song started with KIDEO,KIDEO,KIDEO!!!
it had its own inserts like timothy traddle,molly metronome,petro-the music man,kideo star - ahh now u remember the show dont u? presented by Natasha Sunterland and Mr Chinwag
- Zamani and Ajax''s from Generations first breakthrough

natasha is now married to that afrikaaner musician who was on 7de Laan recently-forgot his name.I once heard that Soli Philander was once Timothy Traddle?

2.Barney- i still watch this one with my niece- the songs"Barney is a dinosaur from my imagination."".&of course "i love you song"at the end

3.Galooby-the south african version of barney - what happened to it?

4.Yogi Bear-
it was hilarous but forgot the song - it was about a dumb bear who got himself into trouble

5.Basket Fever-the song "
basket fever - phetahatsa ditoro tsa hao hey"-

5.Smurfs-was there a song - all i know is that it was funny with all those dwarfs

6.Ewoks-the song "re di e e e ewoks..'

7.Mrs Pepperpot-"if u feel good about urself when things are rolling.."i even wrote the lyrics to this one.

8.Shera- the woman turning into a superwarrior - she would raise her sword and say "khahlisong ya hao wena great star ke nna shera'

9..telly tubbies- how can i forgot them- "tinkywinky,dipsy,lala,poo- teletubbies say hello'

10. timon&pumbaa - "hakuna mathatha"-

P.s ;i have decided to make TVSA part of my work scheduled - lets hope i wont be caught.
