What was the last TV show you watched?

[AGXStarseed]

Haven't seen this one in decades.

I remember seeing some toy adverts for this; didn't realize it had a show, though.

Ha! How serendipitous that this thread popped back up in my notifications! I'm watching a show called "How Clean is Your House?" I used to watch it years ago with my sister religiously, once per week, a double episode on Channel 4, 20(ish) years ago. "Quick quick! Its time for Kim and Aggie!" She'd say Fun times Not for the faint of heart though sometimes!

Watching it now as an older and wiser person, I think there's a slight element of unintended exploitation, the people whose houses were in need of such a huge amount of cleaning likely had some amount of mental health issues. But I have to be honest, its rather satisfying to see the lovely clean houses at the end of the show.

Also timely in that it was announced today that Kim Woodburn has died, aged 83.

Last programme I watched was The Inheritance (on catch-up).

Oh wow! I did see she had died on the YouTube feed but I didn't know it was literally today! Such a shame as she seemed like such a bubbly, gentle person who could just cheer you up in a minute. Its always sad but I'm glad she lived to a good age. I'm sure she made many people smile in those 83 years

 

[Judge]

"True Blood" (Max)

 

[Diego]

"El Chavo Del Ocho" (the original one from 1973-1979)

 

[Ghostinthemachine]

I've been watching old epsidoes of the frost report and world in action on YouTube (fascinating time capsules)

 

[Heroine of Winds]

I remember seeing some toy adverts for this; didn't realize it had a show, though.

It aired as part of a program called My Little Pony 'n Friends. Some days it was either Moondreamers, Potato Head Kids, or Glo Friends after the My Little Pony segment.

Moondreamers was short lived because the toyline bombed. The cartoon's okay, but not as good as the 80's My Little Pony cartoon.

Makes me think of shows like Ring Raiders, Sectaurs and Vytor, The Starfire Champion - where they only got four or five episodes due to heavy competition - although considering it was the 80s and there were a lot of cartoons with toy tie-ins, it makes sense that there were sadly losers in the 'game'.

...it was the 80s and there were a lot of cartoons with toy tie-ins,...

That is why I preferred my 12-inch, redressible figures [GI Joe & arti-Babs]. They were not typecast to a single genre.

For Moondreamers, it only had 16 episodes. I mean, I like the setup and the toys were cute, but the cartoon was kinda mediocre. It was missing a lot of things that even the old My Little Pony show had.

I'll have to concede to your knowledge in that situation as I've never watched MLP nor Moondreamers (and I'm likely not the right target audience for either of them in any case).

That's fine. They're not for everyone (being girly shows and all).
