    Watch My Chops. I demand to know why the dog had a Northern accent but everyone else was American. Not a night goes by where I'm trying to masturbate or something and that thought doesn't pop into my head, therefore annoying me for hours.

    I miss Tracy Beaker. I used to watch it ALL the time. I used to watch Alistair Fury's Revenge or something like that too, that was so funny
    I used to love Smile, Smart and Raven too.
    And I'm thinking about a program where you could get "points"... think Ortis was on it, maybe? I can't remember...
    I remember TMi and becoming infatuated with Caroline Flack
    I used to love Bamzooki and Best of Friends too. I found Basil Brush to be annoying!

    The old Blue Peter with Konnie Huq, Liz Barker, Matt Baker and Simon Thomas before it became all chavvy

    Watch My Chops

    Bamzooki

    El Nombre

    Postman Pat (the original one without all the silly political correctness and the helicopter)

    Raven

    Smile

    Tales of the Riverbank

    Might add more later

    EDIT: Those S Club 7 shows :yep:
    I pretty much stopped watching Blue Peter after Konnie left I only liked it when those four were the presenters.
    El Nombre was just the best!

    I didn't say he was better than Arthur!

    The Arthur theme tune is brilliant.

    "Everyday when you're walking down the street
    And everybody that you meet
    Has an original point of view

    And I say HEY! HEY!(background singers)
    What a wonderful kind of day.
    If you can learn to work and play
    And get along with each other"

    I could go on! What meaningful lyrics! So beautiful!

    Remember the little anecdotes at the end which gave moral messages?
    Thankfully new episodes still air. I've missed so many episodes! :teehee:

    It most definitely went downhill after they left

    Watch My Chops and Fairly Odd Parents! I think they were CBBC anyway.

    I'm probably being a bit nit-picky, but the reason the programmes have gone 'downhill' might be because you're not 8 anymore, and the shows aren't aimed at you, so you're clearly not going to enjoy it as much - not that the programmes have got worse.
    Not at all. That comment was more aimed at the channel, not the programming. I'm sure the recent shows are just as entertaining for the intended age group but I feel as tough the channel's lost it's spark.

    For example, there were so much energy in the old CBBC studios. The numerous presenter's personalities bounced off each other and that came across on screen. From what I've seen recently, studio space is limited and there was only one presenter from what I have seen (I'm guessing there will be different ones for different days maybe?). Back in my era, when the channel was launched, there was so much going on, like interactive programming, a range of shows and atleast a dozen different presenter on the channel within a week. (Angellica Bell, Andrew-Hayden Smith, Jake Humphrey, Fearne Cotton, Adrian Dickson, Barney Harwood, Dick & Dom, Gemma Hunt, Sophie McDonnel etc...)

    Smile was Sunday mornings :mad: :fuhrer:

    Sorry

    It was hilarious when they played online games in the studio but the game was really laggy so the poor person who rang up to play never won

    Tracy Beaker, Grange Hill for a period and S Club 7 were like my soap operas

    My favourite childhood show!

    There were a couple of other shows I can't quite remember the names of. One about kids running a radio station and a sort of prank show where jokes were made on the general public. I think one of the channel's presenters were in it... Not 100% sure though.
    Get your own back? Prank patrol?
