Casey Jones, steaming and a'rolling.
V and the original Miami Vice, Class.
Casey Jones you never have to guess
When you hear the tooting of the whistle
It's Casey at the throttle of the Cannonball Express.
Maverick was great too.
as was Bronco Lane.
Jamie and his magic torch and Chorlton and the Wheelies. Enjoyed them. Not so that Wizbit thing that used to float around..a triangle with letters on I think he was. Creepy. Used to shit me up which probably goes a little way to ecplain my terrible spelling these days.
Then those Childrens tv imported favourites.
Robinson Crusoe
The flashing blade
Belle , Sebastian and the horses.
William Tell
Circus Boy
One that sticks in my mind that nobody else seemed to watch was HR Puffnstuff or something like that....I used to love the theme song.

Tales if the unexpected. Very conflicting messages. Creepy music but a topless bird dancing.
Bod
They didn't, they just gave them wings and called them "Star wars"
The Dakotas
William Tell (effectively a western set in Switzerland)
Westerns became "politically incorrect" with the constant depiction of naughty 'injuns'.
So they replaced the Colt45s with blasters and phasers, and made the injuns into aliens.
the film Avatar perfectly matches the "exploit the natives' land without regard for their welfare" of the American West.
I don't think anyone expected that.
Four feather Falls
Another one no one else I speak to seems to remember. I think it was one of the first series done by Gerry Anderson. About a cowboy with a magic gun that he didn't need to aim (if my memory is right)
Yes they fired without Tex Tucker touching them.
Gerry Anderson.
