OK we have the Name the film thread.... how about one for TV shows .
First up..... probably a semi- easy 1. Made in the Mid 70's, this US show was popular on Saturday morning cartoon programs(live action, not animated).
It involved a Father, son and Daughter who end up in a different era after being involved in a earthquake while on a camping trip.
In the "different era", they run into strange creatures(including lizard men called sleestak).
What was the name of the show?

Land of the Lost.
But does this mean I have to write about one of my own? Because before 1995, I was under 8 years old... So I'm not too good at T.V. shows before then.

Here goes...
1980's show.
Animated.
A government team who had vehicles which changed into other vehicles.
The bad guy's team was called 'Venom'.
Crappy Cryptic, isn't it? Well, that's what you get when you make your brother do the description.

Cryptic? Perhaps vaguely if you hadn't mentioned the name of the evil organisation trying to take over the world!
I loved M.A.S.K.! :D

I HAD A CLUE FOR IT AND HE WAS LIKE "You're so lame, don't write that, just write the name, you wang!"
It made me sad, so I just wrote it normally. Damn. Damn him.
Anywho, your turn!

There can be little question that the this show centred around a genius. But only arch-nemesis Murdoc could really bring out the best in the title character.

This is a real shot in the dark since I don't recognise the nemesis nor watched the show, but Mcgyver perhaps.

Nor do you know how to spell MacGyver - but I'll give it to you anyway. :D

I thought we got rid of the Nazi's back in the great war ;)
I think there should be some way of spelling that noise we make when we can't think of anything and let out a long sigh of air with our lips together and it makes them flap together.
Okay here's one:
A current show involving 4 or more people with the main charachtors aiming to engage the audience in an entertaining and personal way. Some of the show's content is available on CD audio. It isn't Australain or American Idol... or X-factor or anything along those lines.
Spell check is down again. I know it has mistakes :rolleyes:

Is it the glasshouse?

No it's not those.
The audience that the "4 or more people" try to engage is the kid in us, kids in general, and from some comments perhaps one of the show's mainstays is just plain good looking and that never hurts when it comes to keeping the channel from being flipped. It's an Australian show.

Sounds like Hi-5.

Hi-5 it is.
I hadn't even thought about distinguishing it from The Wiggles... Hey they aren't good looking, that just created a disturbing image too lol.

Here goes.....
A show that started in the 80's and lasted for more than one season.
It's about a guy who makes himself noticed and moves in on a crime syndicate to become the right hand man to the boss. The boss soon becomes to love him like a brother, but there is a whole lot more to the story, especially why the guy is often ringing up his 'Uncle'.

A clue.... His uncle was called Mike, who was disabled in some way and it was a modern day drama (back then).
