So... my sister has asked me to help her remember a tv show she remembers us watching when we were younger. The descriptions are pretty vague so not expecting miracles but here goes..

What she remembers.. (potentially)

  • Cartoon, maybe green, lived underground. The beginning showed you them and they went underground and it was like a village underground and they all lived under there in their own houses.
Late 90s-early 00s. They had little doors under the ground where they lived into their own houses type thing. They were like an animated animal things. I feel like they were small animals/animal families not big animals.

If anybody can shed any light/give any ideas we'd be very appreciative 😂

Ah, I thought it would be Trapdior.

So update.. our mum says she remembers the programme but not the name.. she thinks they were creatures that lived under the ground, in the soil. 😂

geekone loved Fungus, was looking in the mirror at my grey hairs and thinking of him saying "the silent touches of time"

The Pondles?

BarrytheFatcat · 28/12/2020 17:26

Round the bend?

Whatagreytdoggo · 28/12/2020 19:31

Thanks guys. After going through them all the one my mum remembers was fungus the bogeyman, so maybe thats correct?! Sister isn't 100% convinced but says its the closest she's found!

This probably isn’t the answer but you reminded me of a programme I used to love when I was tiny called Greenclaws where they planted an egg/seed and it grew into a wee creature. Had completely forgotten about it until now!

The Riddlers?

@Whatagreytdoggo read about this today and I'd forgotten totally about this: Roger and the Rottentrolls. If it may have had puppets in it...

Whatagreytdoggo · 01/01/2021 09:00

Thanks surfer, don't think it's that one sadly.

Dreaming of paradise?

I've asked my partner as I thought he would know and he's driving himself mad thinking of answers not already suggested Grin

Devillishlypicklypickles · 03/01/2021 12:16

Earlier than the 90's I think but Orm and Cheep?
