Did anybody see this last night.
The Simpsons won but I can't believe it didn't include "All Aboard the Skylark"

Thats the one with Noah and the two headed animals (one happy face, one sad). TYhey'd get into all kinds of adventures and his wife used to save the day by knitting something.
It was class stuff.

Probably because nobody remembers it!

well i dont anyway, and i should...cos tv was my mother...and father...
oh tv...how i loved thee!

Muppets should have won, but i dont mind that the simpsons have.

Ah but it was really brilliant!!
Noah ( like a bearded sea captain) would shout "All aboard the skylark" and they'd all pile on and go through multi-coloured skies along to really psychedelic "Magic Rounabout" type music.
Somebody must remember it!!!

The original Batman series was there alright.I forget what number though.

I only saw from 50 onwards.
What places were Mr. Ben and Transformers at.
I was very surprised to see Blue Peter not at #1.
Did Morph feature in it at all, oh and Tiswas was at 30th

Qualm · 28-08-2001 9:16pm

Care bear count down: 5,4,3,2,1...caaarre!

DrunkLeprachaun · 28-08-2001 9:42pm

I was very dissapointed. No Transformers, no Mask, no Thundercats, no Fraggle rock.

I wouldn't call the simpsons a kid's show anyway.

If there's one thing I hate, it's people.

Puck · 29-08-2001 8:52am

See the results here: http://www.channel4.com/greatest/kidstv/results.html

Glad to see the muppet show got so high up!

The Simpsons will define a generation. (already begginning to actually)
The ability it has to seemlessly re-invent itself is extarordinary. It has turned from being a cartoon about an 11 yr old into a multi-tiered commentary on soceity as a whole.

BTW glad to see another personal favourite of mine @ No. 10...
" He-Man "

But where was "Mask" ???

80p.
SAVE CHIP !!

Lemming · 29-08-2001 11:31pm

NO Transformers, Smurfs, the Moomins, Morf (from the Tony Hart show), or Mask, not to mention other stuff I can't even begin to remember the names of!!

T.G Catter · 30-08-2001 2:29pm
