Re: Waiting for Elmo Reply #7 – 2013-11-29, 13:51:55 Note that although I opened with a clip from Sesame Street, I didn't mean your favorite American television series. For instance, I also liked Calimero (Italian; link to the Dutch dub I would've watched).

Re: Waiting for Elmo Reply #11 – 2013-12-01, 06:05:58 Okay. Now I'm just feeling old!Captain Kangaroo and The Three Stooges, in the morning. Peter Gunn (original theme) and Alfred Hitchcock Presents, in the evening — when I was allowed to stay up that late. And then there was The Outer Limits! (The Twilight Zone having led the way…) when I was older… Last Edit: 2013-12-01, 06:24:24 by OakdaleFTL
