It\'s easy, just get an incredibly boring job with internet access and spend all day googling and CMONing (and making up verbs).

Loved Spiderman on TV, esp the way he could climb walls without actually touching them lol and Bill Bixby/Lou Ferrigno were a winning combination in Hulk - so much better than the recent movie. Along a similar vein to the Hulk, who remembers The Littlest Hobo - always left a tear in the eye and a lump in the throat as he kept on movin\' on

my favourite bit f spiderman was the Gym Rope webs......lol

@ treide: Smurfs were the 80s, 99% sure on that one (bad concept of time here).

@ Highbulp Billy: \"Maybe tomorrow I\'ll try to settle down, until tomorrow I\'ll just keep moving on...\"

I don\'t think I\'ve seen anyone mention G-Force. Top notch cartoons there.

@ Demonherald: As for live action supers how about Wonder Woman, I still think Linda Carter is frickin HOT! She makes me wish there was something wrong with my vision so I could get contact lenses.

Perhaps my favorite superhero show though will probablly always be The Greatest American Hero. Top notch entertainment there with a theme song that is A1! \"Believe it or not I\'m walking on air, I never thought it could feel so free. I\'m flying away on a wing and a prayer. Who could it be? Believe it or not it\'s just me...\"

 

[demonherald]

@MPJ I\'m hearing you there........

also I mentioned Battle of the Planets that I think was G-force wasn\'t it???

Space Ghost there was another I liked.....

I remember watching old skool batman with Adam West in the mornings when I came back over for a \"holiday\" at me grans lol
Rol and slice, and batman on tv...blissfull ignorance of the world around me...*sigh*
Havn\'t actually moved on yet...lol

 

[Infidel Castro]

Anyone remember \'Sports Billy\'? His dog always pulled the right item out of Billy\'s magic bag, or at least the wrong item but still managed to save the day. Cracking!

Any UK types remember Knightmare?

[treide]

Sports Billy

@ Reverend - I do remember Sports Billy, or at least I now recall the inane theme song. Thanks so much for pulling that out of my repressed memories where it belonged.

Three words:

Hong Kong Foey

Nuff Said.

@demonherald: Humm, maybe it is the same thing? Did I mention I\'m bad with names too, I remember playing \"G-Force\" as a kid and assumed that was the name of the show but perhaps was just the \'team name\".

 

[demonherald]

@Rev Knightmare was cool....left a bit....stop stop STOP...right a bit ..no the other F%$&ing right.....Now stop ok Your stood in front of a Giant Chess piece.....OH wait it\'s coming.....

Hong Kong phooey now there\'s a guy...errr.dog ...kick ass janitor....

After the cartoons what about saturday nights...
321....Bullseye......Metal Mickey....

 

[matty1001]

321 with Ted Rogers and Dusty Bin! I still cant do that 321 finger thing properly without swearing! lol

 

[Highbulp Billy]

Saturday lunchtimes/afternoons for me were all about Dickie Davis on World of Sport and proper British wrestling with such great athletes as Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks.

Got a Hong Kong Phooey t-shirt somewhere so a Rinky-Dinky-Doo to all for that reminder.

 

[Torn blue sky]

lol Iv\'e got Hong kong- Phooy Boxers! Yeah, bad ass shredies!
And don\'t worry matty, if you actually slow down the footage of him doing the 321 bit, you\'ll notice he f**ks up every time! lol The illusion is speed my man!

 

[Highbulp Billy]

Ted Rogers and Dusty Bin started out life as as C3P0 and R2D2 tribute act. Imagine Ted stripped and sprayed with gold :no: :|~ ... maybe not then :no:

 

[matty1001]

No thanks Billy! Thats just wrong!
