Show from the 80s
« on: April 24, 2024, 03:10:44 AM »
I know this is a long shot, but I am trying to find a title of this animated series? from the 80s I assume.
It could have been a mini series (not sure about that) it looked a bit MLP G1 style of animation (perhaps more detailed as I remember)
It was 4 children, the oldest was a girl, and the youngest a baby brother who was crawling. And there were another girl and boy in between the siblings.
So somehow those children were on a magical adventure outside of their home in another land? maybe. I remember a scene they were underwater. I don't remember any of the magical creatures I assumer were on.
I hope this rings a bell to anyone :)

Little Rosey, perhaps? That was early 90's though. Maybe I'm way off, but because of the family and the oldest being a girl (and there was a baby too, if I recall correctly) it came up in my head. :P

WeetabixPony, thanks for the reply, no unfortunately that is not it. The older girl was probably Megan's age? I watched the show sometime in the 80s in my country, so it could have been 70s? The look though of it was more 80s cartoons but not as comic like.

Hmm... Well I mean I haven't heard about this show before either but then again I'll keep on eye on it. Although I would briefly mention that D&D had a similar MLP G1 style, not sure if that's the one since it does feature humans mostly. but I don't recall a mini series about this. But can't wait to see. I mean I doubt it was moon dreamers or any other Sunbow animation that has that. But I can assure it's not by Sunbow, I don't know.

Let me know if any because I'm curious what's this about. And hopefully it would be found.

 TarkanDragon, although I am not familiar with Dungeons and Dragons. it seems the humans in it, were part of that world?
The children of the show I am looking for, were living in "our" world, kind of like Megan and her siblings, but it wasn't a ranch. It must have been in a city. Before they somehow went to the "magical world" or land or whatever it was.
Another clue I have, there was a scene, the crawling little brother was talking in a babylike way, not making sense but still talking, and that somehow put them in danger when some bad guys heard/saw him.

Ah, too bad it wasn't the one you were looking for. I hope someone else has an idea, good luck! :D

I don't know what it is, but I know that here in the UK we had a bunch of shows when I was a kid that had been made in European countries and translated into English for us here (or made here in the UK). So it may well be a European series of some kind that was translated and shown in your country?

Ponyfan definitely not Bobby's world :)

Taffeta, I wouldn't be surprised if it was European or even UK production, the animation looked quite good either way, at least as I remember it. I have so few memories and info on it. I do know it didn't look anime.

Ponyfan. not this one, it does sound close with children from this world going elsewhere, it also has different style of animation than this one, should be closer to Dungeons and Dragons style somewhat.

Y'know maybe you can also explain more of your memories for hints to find it. I mean if you have memories of it, might as well try to explain if any. Maybe try to remember the character names or what others are in store?

maybe it would help if any. But if you don't have anything else in mind then guess we can look and find what you've explained so far.
I'm tempted to know more about this because it's something new to me that I never knew before. But actually more obscure than the other shows that we seen.

I wish you luck and others anyway.

TarkanDragon, I have looked for it writing the so little info I have on it, haven't been lucky.
I wish I could remember the names, I want to say the youngest child's name was Simon, but not sure about it at all.
So 4 children, older girl around 11-12, 2 middle children I believe boy and girl and a baby who was crawling. Animation style similar to Sunbow stuff, maybe little bit more detailed.
Really don't remember much else. 
A friend of mine I asked who is same age as me and we used to live in the same country at the time is telling me maybe I dreamed about it. No, I am sure it existed even if I was young when I watched it. He was able to help me know another show I had memories of which was about same time, early to mid eighties shown in my country, called Dr Doolittle which was an anime version of Dr Doolittle.

Hmm... Yeah, I understand and see atleast. However I got curious to look it up basing on what you said and it brought me to "Jamie and the Magic Torch" but it's not the one you're talking about probably. Also I think maybe something to do with country specific if any. Also when you mentioned about Dr Doolittle anime, it kinda weirdly caught me off guard if any. Although I think maybe to have an idea you can like try to draw the characters of what they look like (if not the writing but rather drawing could help). I mean I've had that instance when it comes to drawing and I know I've acknowledged the Sunbow Style pretty well, although thankfully me learning the sunbow's style would help me see the similarities.

Also I've never got around to ask if the magical land had creatures of some sort. And if there's any characters there that maybe you might remember. But I doubt it since it might be a long time to remember what exactly. Same goes to like what company made the cartoon at the time.

Welp, hopefully you'll find that cartoon if any. Sorry if there's nothing else that can put your mind to like remember something. Maybe some reminding's can help you out. maybe looking for the category of the mid-80s cartoons or maybe talk to your friend more about it.

Not sure if it helps or not but either way. that is a really hard-to-find cartoon if any.
