Name a film or tv show you think no one on here has heard of -

[peachese]

So for tv show:

When the Street Lights Go On.
Really good and equally as sad.

Films …. Maybe Creep 2004, I just rewatched it all these years later. But maybe it’s not as obscure as I think.

Evil is still running. Season 4 just finished

Australian series. I know if it.

Yes, although I’d completely forgotten Philip Quast - and he’s often trimmed out of the promotional photo.

Seriously? It was very popular

I was very little when First Born aired, deeply traumatising when Gor was killed. Way ahead of it's time but scenes definitely impacted for life. Always remember the music being more dramatic than it is though.

warehouse 13 was amazing. just watched that recently.

Children's Shows mentioned - loved Greenclaws, he grew some very strange plants.
Dogtanian & The Raccoons (best theme tune) were faves too.

Gummi Bears and Thundercats were my never misses though. Not obscure at all.

However ...

The Snorks
Simon and the Witch
Round the Twist (another great theme which was hugely popular I thought)
Eerie Indianna

None of my friends remember them

Murder in Suburbia.

I do. Wasn't a member of the T&T Club tho'.

Have all the Warehouse 13 fans also watched Eureka? If not worth the binge.

@FoxtrotOscarKindaDay a few months back I was in the cinema waiting for my daughter and her pals to come out of their film and there was music playing - it was a slightly more pop version of The Raccoons theme song.
I said "OMG it's The Raccoons" out loud to myself - getting a strange look from the food staff 😂
It was like a whoosh of a memory of a programme.

Film - Connie and Carla. I have it on DVD and love watching, and singing along. Even has a surprise guest appearance by Debbie Reynolds.
TV - Lizzie Dripping. Have now found some episodes on Youtube

Department S

Mandy - film

@Needmorelego I have 3 or 4 rock/metal versions of Run with Us on Spotify because Lisa Lougheeds version isn't on it ... I'd be likely to squeal if I heard it playing in the wild 🤣

There was some good stuff in the 70s wasn't there?

Onedin Line, Poldark The Mayor of Casterbridge, When the Boat Comes in!

Anyone else remember Point Pleasant? It was pretty awful but so addictive to watch. Or what about American Gothic? "Someone's at the door, someone's at the door..."

@redtrain123 I remember Mandy. Old black and white film about a deaf girl.

That’s right. Loving, moving film.

I was gutted that Point Pleasant was cancelled!

Round the Twist and Simon and the Witch I definitely used to watch. I don't remember the Snorks or Eerie Indiana.

It doesn't seem to take a lot for children's tv programmes to be largely forgotten.There were quite a lot of 'family' shows that we used to watch (as in early evening rather than Saturday morning). If I mention them to friends, mostly I draw a blank. Super Gran was a favourite, or Due South. And kids' shows like Willo the Wisp, The Trap Door, Bertha, Jimbo, Family Ness seem to be mostly very distant memories, although I'm sure all my friends watched them.

It's a classic!!

I loved American Gothic, still have it on DVD. Sarah Paulson was Merlyn Temple

Clockwise, agreed - I’ve seen a ridiculous amount of times for what it is.

A Fish Called Wanda, similar thing, they put it on when nothing else is on. Late night BBC2 was the place to see the real gems.

Anyone remember the Zoe Wanamaker and Adam Faith show? I remember my grandparents watching that one every week.
