Day 13 - Favorite Childhood Show - The Magic School Bus

[snogged]

Today is the day where I transform into an even bigger dork right before your very eyes. *wiggles fingers dramatically*

Last night, I spent a good ten minutes going through a list of possibilities with Nick as there were so many memorable shows that filled my childhood/pre-adolescence, including Animaniacs, Boy Meets World, Step by Step, Sabrina The Teenage Witch, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (the original) and Young Hercules.

But if I were to pick a favorite...I'd have to say riding on The Magic School Bus with crazy Ms. Frizzle was always an educational blast that I looked forward to every afternoon when I got home from school.

Besides, Little Richard sang the theme song and he's a classic!

"It's Time for Beanie" Go with the classics!

I would if I grew up with cable and/or had been old enough to watch it when aired.

[diebirchen.livejournal.com]

You probably weren't born when it aired, sweetie.

So I'm the only one who watched Batman and The Addams Family, I'm guessing.

My dad had a VHS tape containing the first two episodes of the Addams Family. I watched them until the tape wore out.

As for Batman, I think I only watched Batman Beyond.

You have never seen the old Batman TV show with Adam West and Julie NEWMAR???????

You poor, poor thing! Oh my stars!

I never had cable as a kid either.

*cuddles back*

[velvetwhip.livejournal.com]

I didn't have cable either, but it used to be in reruns on regular TV.




This is the first part of the first episode with Catwoman.

It's so campy, and cheesy, and awesome. :) I love it.

[velvetwhip.livejournal.com]

It was intended to be and yet, while intentional camp usually sucks, this was somehow a masterpiece.


Gabrielle

Not so! I watched both of those things and loved them as a kid!!

[velvetwhip.livejournal.com]

Yay!

I love your icon madly!

You just named a ton of shows I also loved as a kid. I too love the combination of story and education in The Magic School Bus! That and Wishbone were greatly entertaining educational supplements for me in elementary school. :)

[snogged.livejournal.com]

Crap. I totally forgot to list Wishbone. That's how I learned about all the great American classics.

Somehow your 'Magic School Bus' makes me think of Arthur, and Bill Nye the Science Guy and Where on Earth is Carmen Sandiego, and Crazy Critters... my youth!

Thank you, for making my day more awesome :)

Aww! I loved Arthur and Bill Nye and Carmen Sandiego!
