No I do not know that FB, but I do know what you mean about songs sticking in your head. Had that happen this morning.

I remember Captain Planet!! I used to watch that all the time.
Thanks Tone, was starting to think I was crazier than usual lol
No. I've had moments like that where I vaguely remeber a cartoon, and noone else does, and I think Im crazy.... Case in point... Bravestarr, The Galaxy Rangers (no guts, no glory), or the silverhawks...
Drop a line if any of youse remeber these guys too!!!
Actually I do and I have galaxy rangers on DVD lol
Thats the one that drove me the craziest!! I remeberd no guts no glory. I remembered they were the galaxy rangers. But that was all. None else I knew remembered it. So I looked it up on wikipedia and youtube, and found out it wasn't a hallucination....
I remember the little fuzzy creature from it Zozo I think it was called.

Drop a line if any of youse remeber these guys too!!!I think alot of those shows were after my time...man, I am old...but I think maybe they remade silverhawks, bc there is a cartoon that comes on in the am by that name. My kids watch it. And the ship they fly in is called "The Condor"...
None of these ring a bell for me...I must be old! LOL!
I'll throw one in here.
Does anyone remember this?The Mighty Hercules
I remember watching this when I was maybe 3 or 4 years old!
I remember Captain Planet but I never watched it (couldn't stand it though). I did watch Galaxy Rangers though. It wasn't bad (for being a faux Japanese cartoon). Silverhawks or Bravestarr I have heard of but have never seen.
I used to watch The Mighty Hercules though. God, I hated that satyr! "Hey Herc! Hey Herc!" Grrrr... I used to pretend to be the villain, The Mask, by cupping my hands over my mouth and talking through them. Later, that would be the way I would pretend to be a Stormtrooper in my Star Wars RPG games. *grin*
Here's one from my childhood. Does anyone remember...
Fables of the Green Forest?

I dont remember either of those.

Fables of the Green Forest? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fables_of_the_Green_ForestFables of the Green Forest I used to watch this right before Dr. Who and I think Barbapapa. As for Hercules...Newton was the centaur that was always going "Hey Herc!". My favorites were the Toots the satyr...he couldn't speak so he used his pan pipes to communicate, getting extremely frustrated when he couldn't be understood, and then there was Dido Daedalus' cat...reminded me a bit of Gargamel and Azreal from the Smurfs. Then there was always the cheesy monster sounds and Daedalus' exclamation: "Shades of Scorpius!!"

To think I studied the Classics in university. My Ancient Greek Mythology Professor (Professor Hegel) would hang his head in shame. *grin* I used to have to fight from falling asleep in his lectures because his voice was so mono-toned.
I remember Barbapapa as well. maybe these shows are an Ontario thing.
Come to think of it Tim...I think they were on TVO...

The green forest, the green forest
the stories you've read about all come to life
yes the stories you've read about all come to life
in the green forest...
ARGH!!! I cannot believe that was in my head! Oh, the agony!!!!!!
I used to LOVE Barbapapa! Especially the eps after they had kids and there were a whole bunch of them walking around.
Now, as long as no one starts talking about Polkaroo, I think there's a tiny chance that whatever shred of sanity I still have left will return...
Oh, oh boy.......Captain Planet! I grew up with that show! Thankeee FB! It's touching to have him back!
Hehehe, here's Captain Ego! Isn't he a cutey?
Anyone see the Robot Chicken spoof of Captain Planet?
Ted Turner is Captain Planet!

Here's a cartoon that I loved as a kid...
Rikki-Tikki-Tavi:

This is the first time watching it since I was a kid. The cartoon is based on a story by Rudyard Kipling. Animation by Chuck Jones and narrated by Orson Wells. Top notch stuff all around.
I remember riki tiki tavi....
I dont know about some of the other shows....
Some of them I'd never heard of....
re:Fables of the Green Forest.
My good friend in Hokkaido, Japan used to watch this cartoon as a kid as well. Course to her it was known as Yama Nezumi Rokkii Chakku (lit., "Rocky Chuck, the Mountain Rat"). That''s not too surprising since the show was created there.
Here I thought that BOTP was my first introduction to anime and it was FOTGF many years earlier.

lol Tim that spoof was funny
I also remember Riki Tiki Tavi and Captain Planet, though both are vague memories...
Tone, I'm not sure if most of these were here in the US, 'cuz I haven't heard of them either.

The Green Forest and Barbapapa were Canadian, I think. Polkaroo definitely was.
I also remember Riki Tiki Tavi and Captain Planet along with Siverhawks... Watched all three of them, especially at my cousins house, there was at least 8 kids younger then me.
Some of the others ring no bells, though I went to the movies this weekend and saw an ad for a new movie coming this summer.... Speed Racer.... I'll be there to see it, will be nice to get something good while waiting for next year.
