teddogI was looking up some Public Television sites to link to the Prisoners of Gravity fansite and I had the greatest childhood rush EVER!
I've always been a huge supporter of public TV. TVOntario owns YOU, but I also watched a lot of PBS and I've found some older favorties of mine.
1-2-3 CONTACT:
This came on while I was at school, so I never got to see it much. It was science themed and that's all I really remember. Oh, it had this REALLY trippy/80s opening. Like, wow, man.
SQUARE ONE TELEVISION:
YAY! Math is fun! Okay, not really, but this show was fun. It got boring toward the end, though. Glitch from the Mathman sketches gave me nightmares. I watched a few real player files from the show with Jenny today. We take great amusment in yelling "MATH CAN'T SAVE YOU NOW!!!" during the Mathman chase scenes.
WHERE IN THE WORLD IS CARMEN SAN DIEGO?:
AAHH! This show was the greatest. All my friends and I would run home to watch it when it came on. I wanted to be on this show as a kid. Greg's blue jacket ruled. This show was so goofy and so cheesy and made so little sense. I think it really shaped my idea of what was funny as a lot of the humour was very advanced for children's programming. I would laugh at it, as would my friends, but many kids I knew at school wouldn't get it. The Carmen series started to suck when the cartoon came out and "Where in Time is Carmen San Diego?" is not worth talking about. Yuck. I have the rocking main theme on MP3, but I'm still looking for images of the main villains. Must have....
Katie's home this week with me, so she can help me with my Maniac Mansion/Zak McKracken fusion fanfic. ::is giddy and goes fangirly:: It's gonna be so much fun to write that! I shared my rough plot with Katie and she said "that's such a cool idea" and I was like "I know. It's going to be all bloated and fangirly, but because of the cheesiness of the games, I can get away with it!" Wheeee! Set in an alter 1992 than canon with time and dimension hopping. There's one or two plot points I need to decide on as of yet. Fluff is fun.
