A child of the 90's, this is what shaped my world.(few pics)

Pingu

 

 

 

 

Lmao, I swear this is the sweetest show for kids. Any parent can let their kid watch it without worries, it's a carefully animated cartoon that follows the life of a penguin family. I watched this sometimes with my cousins who are way younger, doubt it's known at all to born-Americans though.

 

 

 

Pingu was my favorite.

 

And I still laugh at it when I see these videos on tv :)

 

 

 

I remember this one vividly:

The 'Noot Noot Noot' at 2:01-2:03. Priceless.

[doomy]

Heh I watch lots of Nick shows, before they became the crap they are now.

[MirageOfDeath]

 

Centurions

 

 

He-Man

 

[amoeba_009]

+1 for teh hemanz. I used to love him. Anyone recall Kenan and Kell? Not shure about the spelling, but orange soda! And Hey Arnold.

 

The one strongest musical influence in my childhood, due to my sister was..

 

 

 

[Lugia_Lvl138]

Looking at those pictures was like a time warp back. I was born September 1989. I remember Doug, Hey Arnold, Rugrats, Catdog, Wild Thornberries, Sonic, Pinky and the Brain, Animaniacs, Cow and Chicken, I.M Weasel, Tom and Jerry, Double Dare 2000, Legend of the Hidden Temple, Rocket Power, All That, and Kenan and Kel.

 

 

 

 

 

Jazz Jackrabbit was one of my favorite games ever. The floating Silver Snake thingies in the Orbitus level scared me as a kid :oops: . To the person who posted about it not knowing what happened to the series, there's a Jazz Jackrabbit 2 computer game, I remember getting it for christmas once . Supposedly, a Jazz 3D was in development but it got cancelled.

 

 

 

 

 

And for anyone who says Nickelodeon is nothing but crap now, 4 words, Avatar: The Last Airbender.

[look_its_rob]

Hanson.

 

Pog.

 

Crazy Bones!(anyone?)

 

and this lovely song

 

 

 

"New Kids On The block,had a bunch of hits

 

Chinese food makes me sick.

 

And I think it's fly when girls stop by for the summer,for the summer

 

I like girls that wear Abercrombie and Fitch,

 

I'd take her if I had one wish,

 

But she's been gone since that summer..

 

Since that summer"

[cryztalwing]

I remember Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n' Wrestling . It was a funny cartoon.

[Wisp]

I remember a mega old indiana jones game for pc, and me and my brothern ever could beat it, because these spiders jumped down on you at one point, and we were scared of them lol.

[Nagrom_17]

wow i remeber alot of these shows im gonna go look them up and watch them right now :D :thumbsup:

[Smi_Mandos]

I was born in late '89. These are my memories from Britain in the 90s, maybe not exclusive to that decade but definitely there

 

 

 

Pogs (I can't remember for my life what they were for though!!)

 

The yo-yo craze at school, they were banned for no reason.

 

Power Rangers (caught singing the themetune by one of my friends - "that's a boy's song!!")

 

Roller Blades

 

Curtain haircuts

 

Terrible pop bands. Vengaboys anyone? A1? And of course Steps!

 

Remote controlled cars

 

Waking up for Live & Kickin' on Saturday morning, it'll always be the best Saturday morning kids show.

 

"Mitch" - I think that was his name. He was the guy that did all the voiceovers and announcing on all the BBC shows, from Live & Kickin' to the National Lottery. Nobody knew what he looked like.

 

When the TOTP themetune was still good. I remember one day on TOTP, the girl presenting it got really excited about one of the old boy bands cos they played their own instruments!!!!!

 

Tapes. When they actually sold tapes in the big stores. They also still sold vinyls.

 

And video cassettes of course, if you didn't have a video player you were screwed.

 

Home videos on home video cassettes, filmed with big old heavy wooden camcorders. Sitting down with the whole family at Christmas to watch.

 

K'nex. Some people in my year 4 class were really good

 

"Saturday night, and I love the way you move, pretty baby..." Does anyone remember the dance to that? Wasn't a patch on the Macarena.

 

At the school disco where they played songs like Sex On The Beach. To like, 8 year olds. But cos we were innocent it just didn't matter. I remember refusing to dance to it "cos it's rude!!" but I didn't really know why back then. We all automatically knew the dance to Oops Upside Your Head though, even though it was like 12 years before we were all born...

 

Spice Girls

 

I like to pretend that one didn't happen. I really didn't like them.

 

Refusing to watch Titanic because it was a 12, and I was 8

 

I dunno if she was 90s, but Billie Piper when she was a popstar. And Mambo No. 5!! And 5,6,7,8... I'm blue dabadee dabadyee... Terrible, classic tunes.

 

 

 

It's surprising how much I remember when I think about it, I never really thought about the '90s as being a good decade because well let's face it, the music was crap. (yes, I do judge decades by their music...) But, well, it WAS my childhood.

[Flodder450]

^I know were your talking about!

 

great times great times.......

[IeatWindex]

I remeber those! I knew I wasn't crazy when there was a show called freakazoid! I love pinky and the brain, hey arnold, all that stuff! brings back memories alright.

[sibmaster]

I was born in '93 and i used to love watching things like the original "Scooby Doo" and the original episodes of pokemon based around yellow, red and blue. Lol. I remember the craze of marbles very well as well at our primary school =D . I was one of the best, but then they got banned after some random kid new to the school decided to start throwing them -.- . It was great back then though, whole childhood ahead of them, so much to discover.

 

 

 

Life back then was grand! :D

[IeatWindex]

The kids these days need to take in some of the old life. They never got the cartoons we had.

 

 

 

P.S. Was Freakazoid fast? I went through my whole life having one picture of Freakazoid on top of a building in my head plus his name. I knew I wasnt crazy! It was a mental picture.

[misterxman]

Hey guys... SWAT Cats!

 

 

 

And I think they should bring back Captain Planet, never has he been needed more!

 

 

 

Captain Planet was right! We didn't listen.. We didn't listen!

 

 

 

Good memories from these shows, and man thanks Nadril for reminding me of that game.

Dexter's Laboratory was awesomeeeee, his sister used to annoy me.. Dee-Dee or something

[Higher_Penut]

I was born in '91. All this talk about the 90's got me reminiscing. I still remember all the old TV show's episodes but i especially remember our dos pc. I used to play all the apogee games like duke and cosmo (I have never seen the full version of this anywhere) and the classic doom (and they violence is corrupting our youth; too late) I even have a Win 98 to play them on. Whenever i turn it on i realize wow '98 was 10 years ago its crazy to think i still play games from when i was that young.

[squig]

I literally started to cry while reading this. So many great memories.
