Back to 80's : TV Series I Grew Up With Part 1

I was reading my old scrap book of my school friends' biodata and testimonies...brought back childhood memories. One of the testimony (from Jijah, a girl who sat behind me in standard 6 class) mentioned about a japanese drama on TV I was so attached to called "Moero Attack". I hardly missed an episode but unfortunately I didn't get to watch the final episode coz I went back to my dad's hometown in Kuala Lipis...no TV...sob sob sob. Anyway I did YouTubed this drama just now but couldn't find the finale. I did however find the opening theme :



Then I got the idea to searched as many old TV series I watched in my childhood years and came out with these videos...Sweet memories...big smiles all the way til now.

1) JAPANESE DRAMA

Miss Comet :
One of the earliest japanese drama on TV1 that I followed :



Oshin :
Offcourse...the infamous Oshin. RTM made the rerun of Oshin twice before NTV7 aired another rerun last year or the year before (not very sure). I couldn't find the opening theme for this drama...but there are many episodes to watched on Youtube. Don't expect to find the malay translated version laa.

Akantare :
Loved the theme song...I could even sing the song back then but can't remember exactly the storyline of this drama. The story evolved around a guy with his textile business if I'm not mistaken. I remember the drama being too slow and dragging...I don't think I watched the final episode.



Space Cop Gaban :
Wakatau wakatau...kenangda...heheheh..GABANN...


Kesatria Baja Hitam/ Mask Rider Black :




ENGLISH DRAMA

V :
V actually stands for Visitors...the alien species with reptilia eyes that wore red/orange outfit and ate rats and mice.




The Man from Atlantis :
Looking back...I am wondering what was so interesting about a half naked guy with hand palms like duck legs who had the ability to breathe underwater and swim in the wide ocean...no idea but this one used to be one of my favourite tv shows.



Supergran :
British children drama of a granny who accidently gained super powers and saved her neighbouthood from stupid villains.



Little House on Prairie :
The girls were cuties especially Melissa Gilbert. I loved the scenery images from the series...imagining myself living in a farm house surrounded by the green prairie. sweeet...



I Dream of Jeannie :
The original Genie in a bottle...long before Christina Agguilera was born. Blury Major Nelson and that funky Jeannie were 2 lovely characters. Rememer how Jeannie folded her arms and blinked her eyes to granted wishes? I tried few times before but nothing happen...did you try that trick too??


Bionic Woman and The Six Million Dollar Man :
The classic cyborg superpower human being series with no super AV effects yet believable and entertaining. Back in the 80's, Lindsay Wagner was the prettiest white girl I've ever seen on TV while Lee Majors was one heck of a hunky. Erghhh...I took back the word"hunky" after I watched the 6MDM opening.




That's all for now..more to come on the Cartoon and Chinese dramas.
