Hey guys!! Your old pal Black Ranger RX here!!
When we all go nostalgic and think of these good old 1980's Kids shows that we used to watch, the most common ones seem to be Thundercats, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, He Man, Dangermous, etc..
But, has there been any 1980's kids shows that YOU used to watch as a kid, that you believe most people have forgotten about? a show that may never get a re-air ever again or has lost it's fame or anything like that?
When I was a kid, I used to LOVE watching this show
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SgnSc8XcTTA&list=FL9Qx1XzYIXRg&index=1"]Telebugs 32 - Lifo To The Rescue - YouTube[/ame]
This is a British cartoon called "Telebugs". It used to be aired on CITV in the mid 1980's, and has very vague or minor similarities to Super Sentai and Power Rangers, but I don't think Telebugs had any inspiration to Super Sentai at the time.
The Characters are called Chip (White) Samantha (Yellow) and Bug (Red), and they were basically robots with television screens for faces. created by Dr Brainstrain, and they were meant to fight many villians including BullyBite and many others.
Even in the UK Telebugs is well forgotten about. There is a small fanbase for Telebugs though, and a few fansites about Telebugs. But I doubt we'll ever see the Telebugs get stuff like DVD Boxsets though. Or even a live action CGI movie (that would be great though).
The song in the end credits is called "I Have a Heart", sung by Mort Shuman. The song seems to be very rare on the internet. I tried searching for "I Have a Heart by Mort Shuman" on YouTube and Google for a full version of the song and.. nope!! Whether there exists a full version or the song was intended to be so short I dunno.
While we're on the topic of forgotten 80's Kid's Shows, there's another 1980's kids show I'm trying to find..
The problem is, I don't know the name of this show, nor do I know what it's about, and I'm not sure if it's a British kids show or an Australian kids show, but the theme tune's been stuck in my head for so long now and I wanna hear it again after all these years but I can't seem to find it on the internet.
The song has a cheerful and happy feel to it like a 1980's pop song. I don't know the lyrics to the song but from what I vaguely remember the begging of the song sounds similar to this..
"The UK, has a brave new star!!"
or
"Hoooray!! It's a brave new star!!"
or
"Woooo Hey!!! It's a brave new star!!"
Not sure which one's right.
So er... yeah if anybody could like fill me in on this one. Like what is the name of this 80's kid's show, or if anybody has any video clips of the opening intro, then that would be great. If not, don't worry about it.
