Only Canadians who watched YTV would remember this, but it was a big part of my childhood so I’m sure there must be others who remember this wacky but loveable show.

These days, everyone seems to be obsessed with being popular and fitting in. Yet in the 80s, British kids had shows like “The Raggy Dolls” to prove to them that being different is fine. Aimed at younger children, this cartoon followed the adventures of ragdolls that had been rejected from a toy factory and banded together to generally have fun. The show was entertaining enough that no one really cared about there being only one voice actor in the entire show, and I’m pretty sure that Sad Sack was almost everyone’s favourite doll! (Although HiFi was a close second for me…)

It was considered a sleeper hit at the box office when released in November 1982, earning over $21 million domestically,[1] and remains a popular film to this day among horror genre fans. The film was shot on location in Pittsburgh and the suburb areas. It consists of five short stories referred to as “Jolting Tales of Horror”: “Father’s Day”, “The Lonesome Death of Jordy Verrill”, “Something to Tide You Over”, “The Crate” and “They’re Creeping Up on You!”. Two of these stories, “The Crate” and “The Lonesome Death of Jordy Verrill” (originally titled “Weeds”), were adapted from previously published Stephen King’s short horror tales. The segments are tied together with brief animated sequences. The film is bookended by scenes, featuring a young boy named Billy (played by Stephen King’s own son, Joe King), who is punished by his father for reading horror comics. The film is an homage to the E.C. horror comic books of the 1950s such as Tales from the Crypt, The Vault of Horror and The Haunt of Fear.

Freezy Freakies were a winter fad in the early to mid 1980s. They were snow gloves, created by ski glove company Swany America that revealed fun colors and designs when exposed to cold temperatures. The gloves came in many designs, which catered to young kids. One design was of a fighter plane.

A handful of these ropes and you had friends! I remember tearing off sections for kids in the playground. Did I ‘buy’ my friends?….kinda. Have I learned anything since I was a kid?…sorta. Green Apple was a favorite. I remember Red Hot and Watermelon too. There was no other gum of this caliber or volume, you could take several flavors at once and make one nasty wad of gum for yourself. Good times.

Count Duckula was a spin-off from DangerMouse and first aired in 1988 and lasted four seasons. Count Duckula was a vegetarian vampire who had a butler named Igor and his Nanny. The quote I remember most was when the door bell would ring and you’d here Nanny yell out “I’ll get it” in her British accent and then Count Duckula would yell “No Nanny! Use the door!” as she crashes through the wall. They lived in a castle that would teleport around the world.
