bananaman and other 80s tv cartoons

i was talking to my girlfriend tonight about bananaman and she was like wtf, she isnt English and didn't understand a superhero called bananaman.. then i said off the top of my head what about other superheros like super-ted and shows like c.o.p.s.. so i went on a massive nostalgia trip of 80s cartoons i grew up on.. here are some youtube segments of particular shows i was obsessed with as a child in the mid 80's

Oh man, Thunder Cats, Awesome, I was born in the 80's but was bought up on Count Duckula in the early 90's.

 

You having a late one mate?

I am trying to remember what the show was called with those 3 fellas with the tvs for heads were called. Cant remember it for the life of me.

 

And yes late one for me mate wish it wasnt but kinda just happened what the fuck can you do eh?

Don't remember that mate, perhaps too young. Yeah I know what you mean fella, I'm just up late coz I didn't get up till like 3 this afternoon.

Lazy bastard I am just an insomniac and was meant to go to bed about 2 hours ago but I found a beer and now want another one but know there are nomore in the house this sucks.

 

Shit.

Dude, you know your toons...

 

actually bought vhs's of the full D'n'D series like five years ago and watched them all baked off of my ass, was glorious and a trip through time...

 

How did you get to watch all of these as a kid?

 

Dogtanian? The theme for that one is awesome and mindmelting....

 

SAMURAI PIZZA CATS???

 

wonder if they got that idea from TMNT.......?

 

 

awesome thread!!!!!

Need to get your stash sorted mate!

 

nektakilla? Weren't you here back in 02?

are you speaking to me george?

Nah sorry Atop I de-railed slightly, talking to Sir Winston, I think he is nekta killa.

yeah george I was but no biggie you know.

ahhhh

Yeah, just clocked your post to essines thats all :), kool man, hi!

Also having a stash on a school night is a very bad idea..........but wouldnt make alot of difference now I suppose.

 

Before you crack open the second, get yourself down the 24 hour supermarket?

Well the thread I made earlier is an indicator of where I went with this so I am going to sleep now. Night gents.

Bask in the warm glow of the most 80s theme tune ever composed.

 

 

 

I was old enough to watch most of these when they were repeated in the early 90's, but even at that time they seemed like tacky old shit. Was I just cynical, or born 3 years too late? Thundercats, Flash, Cities of Gold, Superted, whatever; they used to come on TV and just depress the fuck out of me.

I loved PC Pinkerton however, and my parents made me a 4th Birthday card with PC Pinkerton on it, and they posted it to the BBC and it was read out by Andy Crane in the Broom Closet.

 

We still have this on VHS somewhere
