Re: what do people think of kids tv today?

Totally agree. I dare say I don't see that much kids TV now but I remember when I was a kid some TV was great but a lot of it wasn't that good. I sometimes think we put on rose tinted specs when we look back at things. I used to love Camberwick Green when I was a kid in 70's but I watched it on DVD recently and though 'my god that's really boring!'. Chorlton and the Wheelies on the other hand has stood the test of time IMO. So has Danger Mouse. I must admit Horroble Histories that's on TV now for kids is great!

The reason there's not kids TV on the main channels is because of the digital cross over. I don't know anyone who has bog standard analogue TV anymore, they are turning it off in a few months here in Yorkshire. There are kid dedicated channels if you look at the tv guide.

Getting back on track.

I personally dont think childrens tv of today is any better or worse than back when I was a child. There's some fantastic programmes for kids and some really dire ones,just as back then.

Hi H.

thing is i really do think kids tv was much better back when i was growing up.

i practically liked everything.

i guess it just depends on how many shows back in the day you liked as to whether you you feel kids tv is better or worse than when you where a nipper H.

True Darren mate we all (well not all) but a lot of us feel the same. My Grandma used to say this to me about Xmas but i'd just say "I just devour (for want at the moment of trying to think of a better word as i'm worn-out) buying thing's for people to see their faces, though i'm no longer a kid"
on from half 4 to 5.

Re: what do people think of kids tv today?

It's hard to compare the children's tv I watched as a child to the children's tv of today. I still like some of the stuff I watched as a kid but purely for nostalgic reasons. I tolerate the programmes that are on today because I have a 3 year old that likes some of them. The programmes today don't seem as good but that's watching through an adults eyes.

Re: what do people think of kids tv today?

In a way it is hard to compare im not being biased but i think say if 2 generations of older people say people from there mid thirties upwards both watched kids shows from the 2.000's and shows from the eighties theyd prefer the eighties ones.

And this is saying they had never seen either of these decades shows before they did the above for the first time
