What shows did you grow up with?

[Tom Duke]

Howdy y’all, this is just a little thread I wanted to create to help us walk down memory lane, we all remember Dukes, but what other shows did you grow up with as a kid? 
 

Interested to see what people grew up with and remember

I only had NBC my entire childhood so missed a lot of shows. When I was 19 and Dukes came out I would go to my grandparents to watch it. They could afford a nicer antenna and really tall pole for it.

I grew up on this classic as a kid, from a very young age. 
 

Although some of you may remember it aired under a different name in America on PBS  

I only discovered Dukes when my adoptive dad came into the scene lol. 
 

Funny, my 2  childhood favourites both wore Number One

I've never heard of Shining Time Station. Before it became Thomas and Friends, it was simply The Railway Stories by the Rev. W. Awdry, and that's what I grew up with. Although I know that Ringo Starr narrated Thomas and Friends when it changed its name and came to TV, I haven't seen many of those episodes. I used to have LPs with the stories read by British TV presenter Johnny Morris.

He was best known for presenting a zoological kid's TV show called 'Animal Magic'. He'd narrate it and do voices for the animals.
