To remember the awesomeness, you must have also watched it, which means you are as well!
Who doesn't remember Thundercats?Jester Lord said:
Damnit, I know the show you're talking about but can't remember the name either. Curse you! I think it had something to do with what the fantasy/coma land was called. It's going to drive me insane!!AboveUp said:
For my contribution I have to say Sam & Max. It seems a lot of people know it via the games on the internet, but no one I ever talk to offline has ever seen the cartoon series. Then I enjoy forcing them to watch it on DVD.
Oh and Mighty Mouse. Can't believe I almost forgot that show. He was a superhero mouse who flew around space with a red cape saving stuff. Oh man. Memories.
Confused why its all cartoons... I remember the majority on this list, so I'm instead going for the Mark Thomas comedy product and Micheal Moore's Tv Nation. Watched them when I was young, they're both fantastic and only one of my friends watched/remembers them.
X-Fire (pronounced Crossfire). Absolutely brilliant.
It was a reality/game show that got panned because of the September the 11th attacks (apparently, I was too young to remember when they finished) so Channel 4 got rid of it so they could film more Big Brother. ¬_¬ As a result the outcome of one episode is unknown. ~_~
It was essentially paintball but what they did with it was what made it clever: killing (or "emulsifying") people granted credits and the idea was to get as many credits as possible whilst also saving the world from various threats, such as terrorists threatening to start a new Cold War or a military dictator mixing human and alien DNA. Whoever got the most credits would come back at the end of the series and save the world from ultimate destruction (or at least try to). But also teams could use the credits to purchase ammo and other weapons, like flame-throwers (paint-throwers?) so it had quite a strategic element to it as well.
It also featured some cracking one-liners from the host, Ed Hall, and 6 very unique Special Forces (think Gladiators with less spandex and more paintball guns, worth ten times as many credits as the standard Grunts but much harder to ki- I mean emulsify).
Happily, the entire series is available through the medium of YouTube. I assume somewhere online there must be a petition to bring it back.

Fraggle Rock, sometimes I feel like the only person who remembers fraggle rock.
All I remember is liking the tiny people that made the glass structures that the fraggles ate for nourishment.
