Kids TV series of the 90s.....anyone want to join me in reminiscing?

[Youngatheart00]

Someone on another thread has just mentioned “The Biz” which was from memory one of CBBC’s 5pm weekly series from back in the 90s. It’s got me thinking about all the other great stuff from that era (I was junior / secondary school age during the 90s) and can remember the following;

Watt on Earth (about an alien man who lives in a boys shed?!!)
The Queens Nose (and I had a major girl crush on the ginger girl, I just thought she was so beautiful and sassy)
5 children and It (what was that sand creature called?!! And I remember time travel being involved)
The Borrowers (Sunday tea time, my parents tried to get me into the books and failed)
Dark Season (a Russell T Davies one and quite dark / scary)
No Sweat (boy band)

Anyone else want a trip down memory lane? That’s all I can think of for now!

Dogtanian!

@Cattenberg

Simon and the Witch Patrick Packard There was one about a family who had to go into witness protection. It was really good.

Ooh yes, it was linked to the older girls boyfriend somehow I think was? was it an Australian one? Or am I getting confused with one where they were out in the bush for some reason and creepy stuff happened

I loved

The Animals of Farthing Wood
Spatz
Mike and Angelo
The Boot Street Band
Pirates
Rood Dog and The Dweebs
Dizzy Heights
Woof
Pirates
The Demon Headmaster

There are others but I'll have to think of them.

I didn't grow up in the UK
But I used to watch Nickelodeon and Disney channel.

.the rugrats
Home improvement
Kenan and kell
Sabrina the teenage witch
Sister sister
Hey Arnold

And probably loads more I just can't think of now

I have never heard of Sarah Jane Adventures - perhaps you are much younger than the rest of us (I’m 38!!)

The troll things in the greenhouse was Greenclaws I think, well remembered

@GlamourSpider

Round the Twist Pinky and the Brain

I remember these . Loved them

[quote Youngatheart00]@HulahoopsBBQbeef Why Don’t You!! I loved this. I loved the vibe of holiday tv. It created a real routine during the long 6 weeks (I sound like a real sad case I know!)

I did take Why Dont You’d advice and ‘switch off the tv and go and do something less boring instead’ sometimes, but I also remember 80 Days Around the World (Willy Fog!) from the holidays.

Also how cool were the American shows?

The secret world of Alex Mack (GC161)
Clarissa Explains it all
Ghostwriter[/quote]
I loved Clarissa, couldn't really get into Alex Mack though.

Oh my god, so many awesome memories!

Sarah Jane Adventures was mid-late 00s! It was after the 'new' Doctor Who started. My mum loved it

I was "too old" for some of the programmes mentioned ( I'm 36)

God I loved Alex Mack! So exciting.

@Cattenberg

Simon and the Witch Patrick Packard There was one about a family who had to go into witness protection. It was really good.

I'd completely forgotten Simon and the Witch. I loved it.

Does anybody remember pete and Pete ( Nickelodeon show about two brothers named Pete ) and also Bailey kippers point of view?

Sponge Bob squarepants was another favourite.

Demon Headmaster, Bodger & Badger, ZZZap!

Does any one remember "Wishbone"? It was a time travelling jack Russell dog IIRC. It was on Nickelodeon. Loved that show but no one remembers it.

Also "Doug" which is on Disney+ but has different opening credits to what I remember

@Youngatheart00 this is the one I meant, think grotbags was different I think?

Bernard's Watch
The Queen's Nose
My Parents are aliens (this was probably later)
SM:TV
Byker Grove
Get Your Own Back
50:50
Sabrina The Teenage Witch
Clarissa explains it all
Sister Sister
The Simpsons
The Demon Headmaster

Not a series but I do remember trying to read all the Point Horror books in the school library.

Eerie Indiana

Dizzy Heights Hotel with the puppets and two men
Duckula
Dr Zitbags Transylvanian Petshop
Knight School with Roger Lloyd-Pack (I think)

Omg yes watt on earth !!! A strange shell suit wearer who did what was it ‘transgomolorerste’??? To change into a pen or something and JEMEDAAAAH!

@SoSaidTheLlama

Eerie Indiana

Was the boy called omri katz who was in this ?

Sister sister is on Netflix for those who enjoyed it

I remember it well. I never liked it though. Just couldn't get into it

Not tv programmes but did anyone else see these slightly odd programmes at school, there was Through the dragon’s eye and one with a boy who had a pigeon?

Ah yes Wishbone, I think I watched it on channel 5 when that was added to the main channels?

Just reminded myself about Arthur, Recess, Hey Arnold and Rugrats.

@MichelleScarn T-bag! 😬

Oh yes, point horror books were great. I was slightly too old for goosebumps but I still read them. Along with point crime, point romance (anything point!!) and babysitters club 😬.

Speaking of babysitters club - did anyone see the Netflix reboot earlier this year? I LOVED it (also the Malory towers reboot!). Definitely want more nostalgia like that.
