oh no getting more flashbacks to the 80's/90's!!!
Worzel Gummidge Metal Mickey- engish sitcom bout family with a giant robot pet. the crystal maze krypton factor Married with Children Round the twist Hr puffinstuff---now tat was trippy! Groovie Ghoulies Round the bend-- staring Croc spitting image for kids! The fall guy The greatest american hero Galaxy high school.
Whenever LOCKDOWN is not on screen or in comic panel all the other characters should be saying "Where is LOCKDOWN?" or "I wonder what LOCKDOWN is up to?" or "LOCKDOWN would know what to do" or something that references LOCKDOWN.
Damn, forgot Battletech, dunno if it was ever finished.
As a Fan of the game and the novels. BTech has some of the Best Gaming Fluff out there. It's got over 50 Novels plotting various events over the Inner sphere. Even more of than that on the Source books. It;s just a smorgous board of Stuff. I was so excited about the Btech cartoon but alas it was the bad, Basically about 30 years too late for american propaganda againist the Russians.
What I do love is the fact that they have excepted the cartoon into cannon. It is actually a show that aired in the Fed com in an attempt to make people less afraid of the invading forces.
As For there stories I can tell you that after 3 large wars, 1 civil war and several Attempts on his Life Adam stiener Find himself on the throne of the Lyran Commonwealth. And Franklin ends up getting back in touch with Daddy Just in time to help foil an assassination attempt by the Local Yakuza. All in All Fun.
I can't beleive no ones mentioned their Hour of power partner Skeleton Warriors. A stupid show with some good ideas. Gigantor why did no one ever go after the little fella with the controler. Don't ditch captain planet. Have you seen the one set in Northen Ireland? ie.youtube.com/watch?v=08SvFl3o-tM ie.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQJrovKgrTw
Whats the story everyone? I'll agree with most of what has gone up here.
Crystal maze He-Man Dungeons and Dragons Mr Benn Zig and Zag DJ Kat Battle Tech Bots Master Transformers (obvoiusly) Knight Rider Captain Planet xmen Dragonball Z Creepy Crawlies The Tick Earthworm Jim
Everyone seems to have overlooked the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Back in the day, your afternoon wasn't complete if you didn't hear "It's Morphin Time" or "Megazord activated".

Good call ! Id completely forgotten bout Baron dark and co. Cheesy show but at least they finished it in a satisfying manner
Earthworm Jim was great, used to love Evil the Cat in that. I've been watching Dragonball Z on DVD lately too. Just finished the Cell Games ruck between Gohan and Cell
I think my all time fav as a kid was Centurions, followed by Galaxy Rangers. Of course it goes without say that these all came 2nd place to the awesome sauce that was Transformers!
OMG Centurions, they have to remake this. Really, it was a class act back then.
I wholeheartedly concur!!! The toyline was great too. And Bionic Six!
Anyone remember Trapdoor? "Don't you open that.... TRAPDOOR!!!"
And Count Duckula Where's Wally Emu (and the spin-off, Grottbags) Rainbow with Bungle, Zippy and George Botsmaster
And the Police Academy cartoon! Changed me life, that did! Good toyline... when you've got a figure of a cop that has his trousers fall down, you know you're on to something good!
Ok, here's something maybe you guys could hep me with. Now this isn't a kids TV programme, it's a toy from the 80's that I remember having but can't remember what it's called.
Can anyone remember the name of the toys that were basically blocky robots with a giant sucker stuck to the bottom of them? They had a button on the back of them that if pressed moved their little accordion-esque arms. They look a bit like Daleks in some ways!
I would like to re-visit these guys but cannot remember what they were called. They also has a base which wa like a giant mountain that opened out into a cool hi-tech robot fort! And no, it wasn't M.A.S.K.
