The spinny bit at the beginning used to scare the shit out of me as a kid. I had to leave the room when it was on :(

I was watching a Quincy the other day where Sam quit because he didnt believe Quincy's theory. It was a sad day.

(no way related to cartoons or icecream but there you go)
Posted by chandler, 12:19, 15th July 2003:
 
he must have felt pretty strongly about it, to actually quit.
was Quincy proved to be correct in the end?

Posted by Sul, 12:24, 15th July 2003:
 
Indeed he was. It was a dramatic plot twist, I never saw it coming.
Posted by chandler, 12:28, 15th July 2003:
 
did Sam feel rather silly about the whole thing? and come crawling back?
Posted by Sul, 12:31, 15th July 2003:
 
did you see it too? That's exactly what happened.
Posted by Sul, 12:32, 15th July 2003:
 
Although for once Quincy didnt cop off with some sweet young thing.
Posted by chandler, 12:33, 15th July 2003:
 
:D
no i didn't see it. but im glad everyone was happy in the end

This site might be interesting to some of you.

I'll start you off with a downloadable episode of Dangermouse www.aowz68.dsl.pipex.com/cartoons/danger...

Look around, there's lots of episodes of Bananaman, plus Count Duckula, Dogtanian and well see for yourself.

This is what the internet was made for :)
Posted by Fnord, 12:43, 15th July 2003:
 
There is a bit in the first m3tatweening - www.l0ve.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/m3tatween0... where Sam gets pissy with the big Q.

Not sure what the protocol for posting pics is, this is over 400k anyway so I'll give you a linky to the particular segment I'm on about. This will make more sense if you have a look at what m3tatweening is.

Why have episodes of quincy never involved the line "Oh fuck off Quincy, your a fucking coroner. now stop playing junior G-man and piss off back to your embalming fluids"?
Posted by Rosie, 12:57, 15th July 2003:
 
LOL!

My b/f calls me Quincy when I ask him what hes been up to...


Rosie: Hello Si. How was your day?
Simon: OK.
Rosie: Did you go to the bank like I'd asked you to?
Simon: Urrrrmmm...
Rosie: Well, did you?
Simon: FUCK OFF QUINCY! STOP ASKING ME QUESTIONS FFS.
Rosie: *evil look*

I used to love button moon when i was a wee nipper, long before the days when it became a franchise for student housing wall coverings.

What's "joe 90"? I think I"m eather too young, or in the wrong country... possibly both. I watched Tom and Jerry twice a day when I was little.

Kate Thornton - "I remember Joe 90, it was brilliant, we used to, you know, sing the theme tune at school and everything"

Phew, so glad we are all on the same wave length!! Thanks Vic, I will try to get it as soon as I have my new computer to do what the hell I want to on (one of which such things is listening to Joe 90). I've been in Africa with no TV for such a long time that access to such childhood memories has been a bit impossible. How I remember so fondly times I sat in front of the fire on a Saturday morning in England watching all these programmes!!! And thanks to Fnord for reminding me about Dangermouse!! Ha Ha, what a memory. Thanks y'all!!
