Let me start by saying that this is a list of what I consider to be my favourite shows as a child. Most of those on this list I would watch every week, refusing to go out if it was on and sulking if I missed it. With that said let's move on to the list.
12) Pokemon
From the age of 10 until I was 13 I would watch this religiously along with collecting the cards (I'm ashamed to say I never played the game until this year). One thing always bothered me though, why were young kids sent out to capture possibly dangerous creatures just to enslave them to fight other pokemon? Whatever the reason that was one catchy theme tune.
11) Thunderbirds
Well it was a tough choice between Captain Scarlet and Thunderbirds but the place went to Thunderbirds as I have always thought that it was much more fun. I have many fond memories watching this with my dad (who remembered watching all of them the first time around) and it has left me with a fondness for Supermarionation.
10) Art Attack
Oh Neil Buchanan you filled our young and impressionable heads with such visions of artistic glory whereas in reality we could barely draw a stick man. Even though I watched this every week I think it was only once that I made anything that was on the show, and if I remember rightly it went very wrong. Artistic ability or not how could you not love his giant art attacks or the Head?
9) Babar
It's a show about a royal family who are elephants who run a country filled with other animals. Oh and the children's nanny is an old lady. What? It was cute.
Part 2 coming tomorrow.
