Expired Series You Desperately Miss

[expatinscotland]

Afterlife

Sea of Souls

you know sea it does ring a bell and I'm pretty siure I'd like it.

still trying to work out how to find a decent dvd rental thingy here in Milan. It's all blockbusters, which is crappola.

they have it on amazon too thankfully alot of really great forgotten series are being released on dvd now.

I have a Newman & Baddiel video here somewhere with History Today on it... not sure if I can still get anywhere to copy it off though. My mum used to be able to at work

Thanks Flame but don't worry. I've had my fix from youtube - that will do me for now!

ohhh franca! 8 is enough!!! LOLOL
or too close for comfort
or gimme a break!!

yes sirdigby. here

Ally McBeal

And does anyone remember Capital City, from the 80's? It was so bad it was good.

satc
buffy
histories mysteries
twin peaks

I have anne of green gables taped!

Father Ted is genius

Loved AD

Bring back takeshi's castle

I miss blackadder

Really sorkycake? The one from 1972? Or the much later Canadian one with Megan Follows as Anne?

beckyvicky, I thought Capital City was a riot! But it gave Douglas Hodge and Jason Isaacs their first big break in TV, interestingly, and both have gone on to huge careers in film and theatre.

Yay - the High Life! Whenever I see Alan Cumming trying to be a cool Hollywood dude, I cant help thinking of him as a camp trolley dolly asking "You fae coffee?" (say it quickly and pronounce the last 'ee' as 'eh')

Ah - I loved Capital City!!

capital city is in my shopping basket on Amazon. I just haven't decided if I want to watch it again ir would it spoil the memories

The High Life is on youtube.

BadMouse,

Omri Katz! That's the one. I loved that show.

Beckyvicky be warned - I got Chancer on DVD and was like - what?? I liked this?? I fancied him?? Some things are of their time iyswim.

Traffik - the TV series, not the film
Sergeant Bilko
Shoestring
6 Million Dollar Man
Fall Guy
Dukes of Hazzard

(I know the last ones were crap, but they were so bad they were good)

Prisoner Cell Block H

Anne of Green Gables is lovely. I remember me and my sisters were tasked with cleaning the house one Christmas eve day and my mum and dad had gone out and one of the channels had a whole day of Anne. We got into so much trouble as my mum and dad came home and there was no cleaning done!

This Life my all time fave series too.

friends
band of gold
cracker
thundercats (ok not really a series)

Thundercats? I loved it too, but I can't say I miss it. There was one that i would like to know the end of - where they were searching for the cities of gold. There was a big bird whose wings they flew on.

And he-man and she-ra - enjoyed those.

cities of gold - oh that theme tune irritated me so much.

do you remember another one, quite similar where the cars were made out of flowers and plants?

Nooooooo. But I wish I did. I need a world where cars are made out of flowers and plants. Then I will TRAMPLE the school run in my mad dash to the station.

Remind me of my cities of gold theme tune. I know they were searching for the ciiittiiies of gold. But can't remember the rest.

Oh I have just remembered 80-days-around-the-world.

OK - I didn't mean it about the school run. Its just that the catchment area for my school is about 9m, so I can't understand the driving. But there are VERY GOOD REASONS for it I am sure.
