childhood shows

I've been contemplating on writing this for a long long time. At last i decided to juz sit down for a while and do it.. hope you people like it..

First up, we have out favourite purple dinosaur aka Barney!!

Who doesn't remember this firendly purple dinosaur that can turn from a soft toy a to a talking moving dinosaur that towers over every1? I know that i really enjoy the shows when i was young. Up till now, i'm sure that this is for most people who actually watched the show, the ending song is still stuck in my head...
I love you. You love me. We're best friends like friends should be. With a great, big hug and a kiss from me to you. Won't you say you love me too... darn catchy song.. haha.. here are some youtube videos that feature the opening and ending songs of each episode.. ENJOY!!

I love you, you love me..

Next, we have our two yellows friends and their bear buddies aka The Bananas in Pyjamas!!!

These two bananas juz rock! They are like so perfectly twins that they know what the other is thinking, especially when they come up with an idea.. haha.. Who doesn't love them when they go 'boing' and says
B2: Are you thinking what i'm thinking B1?
B1: I think I am B2!
B1 & B2: Its party time!!!
then they go off doing some random stuff to the teddies or to Rat.. haha.. totally loved this show.. Look at them! Don't you think they're like cute and all? haha.. sadly, there are no more merchandise based on the two of them that can be found in Singapore anymore.. like.. so sad lor.. they look like soft toy material!!

Last one for now is everyone's favourtie. Its been around since my uncles, aunts and parents were children. The classic children's show: Sesame Street!!


To me at least, the 2 characters above are the cutest of the lot!! Elmo is this red fuzz ball who has this cute high pitched voice and understands goldfish language!! all i've got to say that elmo's cute!! Lala Lala, lala lala. Elmo's World! Lala lala, lala lala. Elmo's World!
Elmo's Song!
As for ernie, he's hilarious!! he lives with his roommate bert and ernie manages to tick him off everytime. The way he does it is so innocently funny that you love him straight away. Also, he has his favourite rubber ducky!
Ernie's Rubber Ducky!

Not to say that the other characters are not cute or anything, but these 2 are my favourites =) sesame street i believe would have evolved over the years and up till now, from what i've heard, the fun parts of the show are slowly being corroded away to remove negative connotations.. for example, cookie monster is now unable to eat cookies as it would breed i sense of gluttony in children, but that juz removed the fun from the show, to me. Well, this is all for now =)
