I am not sure, but one of the first good and outstanding tv serials I can remember and that have something in common with you (English speaking world) is "Roots", of author Alex Haley. If I named some spanish made serials, you wouldnt know anything to do with it, I guess. AriZonaMoon, maybe you can try to translate some of your poem/song you wrote in Norsk!!! I have no idea of Norwegian....sorry! :-( Maybe this helps: Skal, tusen tak!!! Cheers! |

All of the Irwin Allen stuff... I loved the Irwin Allen shows. "Lost in Space" was a favorite (well at least the first season), and I also used to really like "Land of the Giants". I was also a big fan of "The Invaders" (Quinn Martin, not Irwin Allen) which my mom worried was rotting my brain with strange ideas about "outer space aliens". I guess not much has changed for me. :D |

There was a show I liked in Germany and I think it came from Australia. The chicks had pink hair, with a funky haircut, that arched over the eyebrows and had a point above the nose. Sorry I can't provide more detail, since this is all I remember. Any clues out there? Pluto will always be a planet to me. Seti Ambassador Not to late to order an Anni Shirt |
