Old-school Kids Television

Every so often an old kids tv show pops in my head. Earlier this week my accompanist was playing the theme, something that we both recognized but that neither of us could remember what it was. Then a day or two later he emailed me this link and I was like "oooooh yaaaaaaa!" :) it wa only on for a short period of time but I must have caught it in re-runs in the 80s because I was born in the years when it first aired. And now I can hear the song words as all! :) check out the info...some pretty famous folks had appearances!

Then in remembering this show I started thinking about and remembering others that I watched and loved from TVOntario...sing-a-long if you remember...

Fables of the Green Forest

Jeremy

And one of my favourites a little unknown called The Secret Railroad...I can't find a clip of it in English, but I remember it fondly!

I hope some of these clips have made you happy the way they've made me happy :). As well a the other clips you stumbled upon while you were watching these! :)

Boxee

Sorry for being away! Blame it on the ol' tv. I don't even have cable and yet the television has managed to overcome my life!

We are running our television through the internet with a program called Boxee which is pretty fantastic! It grabs tv from all over the internet, stuff that is live streaming from tv station sites and brings it in to one place for us to find and watch!

So yesterday I watched more of the Bachelor (haven't watched a season in years) and Merlin which is fun.

Boxee is opening lots of tv doors that I haven't been able to access in many years since I banned Rogers Cable TV from any house in which I reside. I can start following current television like the rest of the world. :)

The real reason I've not been blogging is Lost...just finishing up season 4, watched almost the whole season 4 this weekend. Only one season to go! I can't imagine having to wait week to week to find out what happened!

Getting lost again

After a couple months hiatus from Lost, we're back at it again.

Ian and I started watching the show at the beginning of Season 1 early last year, as neither of us had made it more than part-way through Season 2 previously. However, we had heard so many fantastic things about the last couple of seasons that we just had to start back up.

Being the kind of show that Lost is, we had to start from scratch to make sure we had all of the pertinent information, although, DOES IT REALLY MATTER?!?!?

Hmmmm...I'm not sure if "happy" would describe my mood as we start the beginning of Season 4, after 2 months off...wonderfully annoyed? Tickled-frustrated? Fabulously-obsessed?

I just want more answers please!!!! (please do NOT give me any answers...this is part of the joy) ....aaarrrrgh......!!!!!

:) glad to be back at it!

With Love
