Nostalgia attack.

What are some things that you remember vividly from your childhood? Id est: television shows, movies, toys, songs, childhood games, foods, other otherwise useless things and so on.


I remember getting up in the wee hours of the morning just to watch Mr. Wizard. I loved Mr. Wizard, but not as much as Bill Nye The Science Guy.

And did anyone else ever play Dead Man's Hide and Seek?

[Tyrannicide]

I remember Bill Nye the Science guy, that was a good show then. I vividly remember Captian Bugy-o-hair (somethin like that)tv show, cartoon.Yoys and such, umm tonka trucks and such. umm, the things that were vehicle/monster liek things.

[Thanatos]

Four words: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

[Sovereign]

I remember the original power rangers

[Jessifer]

The original Power Rangers rocked compared to the recent crap they're putting out. TMNT was better, though.

[Sovereign]

Meh.

I also remember some old old show on nick, where a bunch of space cadet children got lost in space and crashed into some planet. I forgot the name :(

[Jessifer]

I don't remember anything like that. o.O My prodominant Nick shows were "Are You Afraid of the Dark?", "Salute Your Shorts", and the old episodes of "All That".

[Sovereign]

Maybe it wasnt on nick. I think it was Space Cadets. Or something like that. I remember watching those goosebumbs and wishbones shows once in a while when i was extremely bored.

[Penny_Bags]

I remeber how life was perfect and worryless and now it is shitty and dramatic.

[Jessifer]

I miss the days of playing Cops and Robbers on our bikes with bags of leaves and sticks that were shaped like guns. :T And sliding down stairs/hills on my sisters' baby crib matress.

There was this house behind mine that had been vacant for ages, and the grass got to the point where we could actually play Hide and Seek in it. And then they mowed it.

And I was sad.

OMGYES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Grav]

Quite vividly, apparently.

[Tyrannicide]

Could never spell it right. I have a bunch of episodes on tape. I dont have a working VCR though.

Did you use to watch it?

I remember Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, that was bomb, Power Rangers wasn't very good in my eyes.

[KagomJack]

Things I remember vividly from childhood: MORTAL KOMBAT! Street Fighter! Donkey Kong!

Power Rangers (big craze back in the day) and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles most definitely.

[Neko]

I was into TMNT, Batman and all the other superhero shows (Spiderman, X-Men, Fantastic Four) before I got cable. After we got cable I loved Nickolodeon. They had some of the best programming in the 90s with Salute Your Shorts, Wild and Crazy Kids, Double Dare, the old All That. Now however they suck greatly.

My biggest thing though was Power Rangers. My God I loved Power Rangers. I had all the action figures, Kimberly and Tina dolls, watched it every day, and my mom even sewed me a Pink Ranger costume for me in first grade :D

[HandOfHeaven]

I loved that show. I also remember watching those sonic and mario cartoons. Also remember my cousin getting me a sonic stuffed toy when I was 5 and I was pretending to sleep even though i had been watching the sonic show.

[Neko]

Oh man, I remember Sonic. I would get up every morning to watch it. I watched it recently and I realized how horribly bad and cheesy it was. I loved the robot guys, Scratch and Grounder. They were the best.

It reminds me also of Bulk and Skull from Power Rangers. Ah, when they left the show, that was when it started sucking and I stopped watching... :(

[HandOfHeaven]

Just a month ago I caught Sonic while surfing through channels. I remember it being so "cool" but it was VERY cheesey.

I liked the power rangers, when I was 7 we'd play it for recess. Sort of stupid but oh well. I am guessing it's they get so dumb because we all mature and grow out of it so fast. The only cartoons I watch are the classic Tom & Jerry, Simpsons, Southpark, and Family Guy.

[Jessifer]

I never enjoyed Sonic, but I loved me my Fraggle Rock. ^_^

Bill Nye, Eureka's Castle, Tales From The Crypt, assorted classic B horror films.

[Hades-Knight]

Saint Seiya/Knights of the Zodiac


best thing ever, except the american cartoon network version which blew ass

[Sovereign]

The mega man cartoon was the ownage!!

[Neko]

Two other good shows I remember, the Muppet Show and Pete and Pete. They were both so witty, so funny, so unlike most stuff today. I would kill for Pete and Pete on official DVDs.

[Sovereign]

Pete and Pete annoyed the fuck out of me. They always acted so stupid.... Like the time pete sold their house.... or that time they were having lawnmower races..

[Thanatos]

Fuck! I can't remember the names to any of these shows I'm thinking of. What was Pete and Pete about? I can't remember!

Oh, and what was that show where a bunch of kids went to that summer camp and played big jokes and crap? Was that Salute your Shorts?

[HandOfHeaven]

OMG Salute your Shorts was awesome. I think that's what you were talking about. I just remember Budnick and Donkey Lips. Man, what a great show.

[Penny_Bags]

Pete and Pete annoyed the fuck out of me. They always acted so stupid.... Like the time pete sold their house.... or that time they were having lawnmower races..Deal with it, it was godly.

[Sovereign]

pft, traiter in thy lies!!!!!!

[Jessifer]

A Mr. Wizard marathon is on right now. Channel 284 on Direct TV. On the Discovery Science Channel. Just thought you all should know.

[KagomJack]

Here's a show I bet many of you have either forgotten or never heard of: Roundhouse...the precursor to All That, but more mature and funnier...it wasn't on long...but it was the best skit show next to SNL at the time. And it was on Saturday nights on Nickelodeon (spelling?)

Also, it came on after "Are You Afraid of the Dark"

[Grav]

Are you afraid of the dark was the WORST show ever.

Rocko's modern life was mildly humorous.

[KagomJack]

Dude, Are You Afraid of the Dark was awesome with its original cast, but Rocko's Modern Life was THE best show at the time.

[Jamesadin]

The original Power Rangers pwns. :D

[undeadzombieguy]

Oh Teenage mutant ninja turtles and of course Thundercats! And also mario bros from when I got my first nintendo... Outside games mostly soccer every day, also alot of treeclimbing and then of course get something broken :p.

And omg at my school we got this fight club back behind the bike parking place ROFL this was waaaaaaaaaaaayyy before the movie fightclub, we called it something like mortal combat or something, oh man im Laughing my ass of right now when thinkign about it...:haha:

[Raziel]

G.I. Joe, Transformers, He-Man and Ninja Turtles. Those shows encompass just about everything I remember television-wise from my childhood. I vaguely remember watching them as a kid, but none of them (with the exception of Transformers; I cried when Optimus Prime died in the movie) hold any real nostalgic value for me.

Video games are a different story. I remember playing the original Legend of Zelda with my older brother late one night when I was supposed to be in bed, my mother completely oblivious to it, of course. I remember my parents throwing a block party on our street and a few of the neighbor kids from a street down played the second TMNT game on NES for hours. I remember playing Mega Man 2 with my younger brother all day and beating every boss except Heat Man. Video games have a much more constant nostalgic presence in my memory than anything else, honestly.

[Thanatos]

I played World Cup(NES) for a significant amount of time.

[Jessifer]

Heh, I remember watching my mother play Tetris like there was no tomorrow. She was obsessed with that game.
