The spoiled under 30 crowd.

Did anyone else get made to watch Behind The News at school? (I did, in primary school, but only ever when I was in NSW [84]). I didn't know it was still going

 

[Spiff]

That show used to scare me, made me think the world was about to end. These days I don't really care if the world ends tomorrow, but back then I was concerned.

 

[Iron Zombius]

We used to watch BTN in primary school in the 80s. Good show.

Curiosity Show was good as well!

I used to watch a bit of the BTN a year or two ago when I found time in my not so busy schedule. The presenter was hot as.

Who is/was she?

 

[Stonewall]

Was, apparently. Krista Eleftheriou - couldn't find any shots that do her justice.

Mighty Mouse
Speed Racer

Both are being made into big budget films.

Mighty Mouse full CGI and Speed Racer is being directed by those fucking butchers, the Wachowski brothers!

The Afternoon Show with James Valentine

then it was hosted by Michael Tun.

Scary but James Valentine looks as though he hasn't aged a bit, only gotten a little chubbier.
He hosts the movie review and preview show on Foxtel/Austar's movie channels.

 

[Mark]

Aye, Tunny sucked compared to Valentine tho.

 

[Shadow298]

Aye, Tunny sucked compared to Valentine tho.

yeah.

Was like a hyper active Macaulay Culkin and so unwitty -especially in that redubbed parody of the old The Samurai Japanese TV show.

 

[JonBonJovi]

I loved getting to watch Behind The News every Wednesday. Then again I loved anything that was not being stuck behind a desk in a classroom.

 

[KoichCPA]

C'mon Kids!

I just wanna say

I remember this. and it's the funniest tv show name ever.

 

[Winmar]

I never thought of it that way.

 

[Shadow298]

I never thought of it that way.

when you are a kid and it's a more innocent time.

it's funny but the term come/cum in the sexual slang only really became known more widely in the 90's.
about the time of the rise of the internet.
