The Banana Splits Show
Saturdays mornings were never so good,  The Arabian Knights, Oh Oh Chongo its Danger Island, The cartoon one where they got miniaturised and went driving round the garden running into bugs,  The Sour Grapes girls...................etc etc

The Greatest American Hero....................great theme song.

Rentaghost

Catweasel


Someone mentioned TJ Hooker.....  it was shite and did William Shatner no good at all,  but it was worth watching to see Heather Locklear...............yummy.

BTW  fans of the great Captain Kirk  should watch Boston Legal,  Shatner is absolutely legend in it.

A while back I invested in a Thundercats DVD box set and it is still class

Would love to get Fraggle Rock though
If it moves hit it
If it doesnt hit it anyway!!

Seriously ....
A Very British Coup, starring the greatest (and ignored by RTE) Irish actor ever Ray McAnally (RIP).
Could RTE or TV3 not re-run this brilliant series?
Fierce tame altogether

boston legal used to be brilliant, gone a bit too mad recently...not as funny as it was, still decent though

Used to be a show on ITV on a Thursday night, think it was called 'The Manager' ???
Does anyone remember it?
It went for a series or more


SidelineKick

The Wonder Years.  Can still be caught on ITV2 or 3 i think.

Reported.

Doogie Browser

The Mary Whitehouse Experience was on BBC2 in the early 90's and was very funny, they have never released it on DVD AFAIK.  Involved David Baddiel, Rob Newman and Punt & Dennis.  Plenty of clips on youtube though.

Gentle Ben
The Adventures of Grizzly Adams
Benji
Streethawk
Airwolf

Bananaman
The Littlest Hobo
Thundercats

The Word....just to see Dani Behr in her prime and the Wannabes/Hopefuls
Pob

I must have watched a serious amount of tv.
I'm sure you can get a lot of these on box set but I thought they were all worth a mention.

Does anybody remember this show?  It still seems a bit eerie

Do indeed, that was going to be my contribution. There was a kids gameshow on BBC2 where at the end you had to cross a vortex and if you stood on the wrong place got sucked into space. Depending on how well you did you had more objects to use to see where the 'hole' was, can't for the life of me remember the name
