I was only 5 when the 80s ended, so I only reamember little kids shows :)
I was a huge care bears fan though.
My favotite show was Myah the Bee.

I sing for myself. I sing when I want, whenever I want to, just for me. I sing for my own pleasure. Do you understand that?

Nothing precious, plain to see, don't make a fuss over me. Not loud, not soft, but somewhere inbetween. Say sorry, just let it be the word you mean.

Remember the Shirt Tales?

Shirt tales sounds very familiar but I can't picture the show..

Smurfs were always one of my favorites.. That and Scooby doo.. The old ones not the new ones..

School House Rock (was that what it was called- the after school specials?)
Also, I think there was a show called Today's Special, there were people and then a little mouse and some other animal creature...
And I forgot Alvin and the Chipmunks

Remember "Circus of the Stars"?? And now, we'll attempt to shoot Tina Yothers out of a cannon. Next up, Christina Applegate and Brian Bloom take on the trapeze!

Also- The Littles, Belle and Sebastian (Canadian cartoon about boy and dog), You Can't Do That On Television, and my all-time favourite, GLOW (Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling).

Loved Strawberry Shortcake! I hate how they brought that back, along with Care Bears and My Little Ponies, and they are all over shirts and commercial items now for kids that don't even know the true essence behind them!!
