THIS IS MY CHILDHOOD SHOW! When I was a little kid, Gary Gnu was my imaginary friend.

Break dancing to what a feeling LOL love it old school TV was great!

Bonus points for Go-Bots commercial!

Omg I remember missing the school bus 🚍 a few times for this show and getting a whooping for it. Lol the good ole days. I had to be about 5 or 6. I'm 45 now. Thanks for the video and the memories

Great memories. I only watched this show because there was nothing else on. Thanks for this

I just became 8 years old again, when life was so simple

man, this brings back memories. I used to watch this every morning during breakfast before school.

7 years later. Peter: "Well, are officially lost."

I am smiling so hard, my cheeks hurt 🤣...I sang the whole intro song 😅

local networks ruled. the commercials are priceless.

My god, how break dancing has evolved since the 80s. And we thought these moves were fresh. :)

WTAF _TV29! Wooow! Nothing like hearing Jon DeBella and Goriddle's voice within the same half hour. I'm going to go get a bowl of Cap'N Crunch. BRB!

OMG, as nostalgic as the show is, the best part about this is the 80's toy commercials. Aweso...I mean, radical!!

😀😀😀....my childhood. My first halloween i was Gary Gnu. Nostalgia meltdown 😲😲🙃

It took my memory seven whole days a week to remember the name of this show I grew up on this show and I loved it this was a show I watched when I was too old to watch Romper Room I moved to this show. Good Times I remember the micro machine man used to be on this show talking super fast I'm from Chicago so this show used to come on at 6 in the morning.

I loved this show. It was silly and fun. Really made my day to see it again on here.

Holy shit! I have very vague memories of this show! Watching this is so weird! It’s almost like I dreamed this up!

Man, loved this show to death! Had to get up early to watch it before I went to school.

Too bad no kid now or adult gets stuff like this anymore!

OMG!! My childhood is revisited!! Thanks for posting these shows!!! This was when shows were worth watching!!

I use to watch this show when I was a kid.. Man!..Time flys when your having so much fun as kid.

Holy Shit! memories!!

oh....my....god.....i hadnt seen this since i was like 4!!! all these memories are flooding back. im like in shock right now

gigantic man kicks ass, when he isn't busy..

i actually used to love this show. i'm really glad you kept the commercials with it because it really brought back memories.

This was my favorite show back in jr. High! Thank you 4 posting!

wow it was breakfast n watching this show before school back in the 70s great memories I miss those days it was a different world back then

Ah, the happy memories. A few fun facts: The show was distributed by a division of Hasbro, which helps explain some of the commercials. The guy who played Danny is now an executive producer at Nickelodeon and was a co-creator of Dora the Explorer. The guy who played Roy became the lead singer of the Village People in 1985, and later died of AIDS.

I didn't grow up with this show like my mom but I find it entertaining in many ways.

what made this even better for me was the fact it was on ch29! I grew up in the Philly area and remember that lineup before I went to school

Oh, this was when they showed during the credits the various characters. They didn't do that in the first two seasons, which were the ones I watched. The later seasons were on later in the morning so I couldn't catch them.

The classic "Witches Night Out" is featured!!! Thank you for uploading!

This episode aired the same time Flashdance was released in theatres.

Used to watch this each morning, after working the late shift at the Air Force base. I liked drinking beer and looking at the cute girl, to relax and get to sleep.

Clearly the inspiration for Wonder Showzen.

This brings back so many memories

It is Bazooey!!!! Holy shit, I haven't seen this in decades!!

My left ear thanks you. I have never seen this one or those little sno cone characters either. I only saw 1982-1983 season while I lived in Phoenix. I don't know if ran the next year there, I had early bird classes then so had to leave a LOT earlier. Oh yeah, and I walked up hill both ways to school... not really but my car died and I really did have to walk 5 miles there and back, and I swore I would tell my kids, well, you readers get to be my kids.

I damn near cried, brings back good memories.

Peace to Rock Steady Crew

My God the memories this shit came on mad early in the morning,like 6am

My sister's cat loves Gigantic Man.

Koolest show ever!🤘

this is messing with me in a weird psychological way, I forgot about it but I remember everything???

That Baxter clown gave me nightmares as a kid.......and now as an adult too. Damn it!

The Hallowe'en cartoon is an excerpt from the Nelvana special "Witch's Night Out". Gilda Radner voiced the Witch, and Catherine O'Hara voiced Malicious.

Thank you so much for uploading this!

a heavenly brilliant flashback to watching this show as a kid

WOW!!! I have not seen this since I was a kid!!! Thank you for uploading! I make my kids watch!

How awesome! Thanks so much for sharing this! Great!!! ! :)

had a crush on the lady guitar player when I was growing up

I wanna be golden girl and guardians of the gem stone too

Heyyyy I'm from Philly😊 & yes I used to watch this in the morning before school arou d 80-82ish

Just watched the whole thing and can't believe I just went through a lot of memories of grade school. Now I realize that those puppets were really creepy. Love that part on 16:11 "Halloween, stick it in your end, dear"? LOL Is that what I heard? Man! Times have really changed, now everyone gets offended.

It came on Sunday mornings where I lived.

I love this show as a child. This is how children's shows should be!

where are those three actors now? Ray Stephens (December 14, 1954 - October 4, 1990) best known for starring in the 1980s TV series, The Great Space Coaster, as Roy. In 1985, Stephens became the lead singer of Village People and toured England with the group that year. His sole recording with the group was their album, Sex Over the Phone. Stephens is heard singing the tune "Cat's Eye" during the closing credits of the 1985 Stephen King film of the same name. Death He died at age 35 on October 4, 1990, from AIDS. Chris Gifford is a writer and executive producer at Nickelodeon, where he co-created the Peabody Award-winning children's series Dora The Explorer where he was the voice of the Big Red Chicken, the Grumpy Old Troll and the Pirate Captain Pig, etc. and its successful spin-off Go, Diego, Go!. He was also a cast member (Danny) on the 1980s syndicated children's series, The Great Space Coaster. Gifford attended the Browning School and is a resident of Montclair, New Jersey. Emily Bindiger (born May 10, 1955 in Brooklyn, New York, U.S.) is an American singer, belonging to the award-winning a cappella group The Accidentals.

damn I haven't seen this since I was 7 years old still remember this Gary canoe was always my favorite

Used to think it was important to watch this before school. No idea why now.

Things done changed #Wow

Flash Dance was a horrible choice for Rock Steady. Great video though with all the commercials. What the heck was a Golden Girl? I do not remember that.

Kevin Clash? Now this program is even more creepy...

Shout outs to Rock Steady Crew .. break!

Wow, Baxter needs to learn about boundaries. Don’t coerce Huggles. No means no. He caused a Huggle to get lost and it was all his fault for talking him into playing hide and seek when the Huggle didn’t want to

Gigantic Man was the Godot of the show.

The creators were somking that good shit

This was on every morning after StarBlazers. Back in like 1982 probably. I really can't understand why I watched it. I like Baxster but I remember even as young kids we rendered to him as bastard. Becuase somehow that was a bad word we knew.

Kevin Clash voicing Rory before he did Elmo.

Alot of the greatest actors got very famous from children's television. Morgan Freeman (The Electric Company), Denzel Washington (Great Space Coaster), Laurence Fishburn (PeeWee's Playhouse), and Leonardo Dicaprio (Romper Room).

Certified fresh.

now I feel old

off we go

Today's shows for kids SUCK. 🤔😏 This was quality entertainment! 😁

As someone that watched this show when it was new and current....Creepy.Weird.. sorry i attempted to revisit my childhood. Big mistake.

Speaking as someone never grew up with this show and only knows it through a Family Guy gag, I find it a bit disjointed, but charming. 😁 Hope that preservation effort's been working out.

Crazy legs!

It was also produced up in Canada as well.

are the rocksteady dancers still accepting auditions?

Who's the heck is Gigantic Man?!

very nice

They show Witch's Night Out! Great Halloween classic.

Gary Gnu was the best!

From the 1985-1986 season on WTAF-29 Philadelphia.

Love the commercials. Really triggered echoes. That girl singing and playing is phenomenal. I wish we saw more of her. Such a full, clear voice. I know one of the black guys in that role went on to be in Robocop and in a lot of rolls, I even saw him recently in some TV ad. The show is good hearted and they really seem to try. Mabey they tried too hard, it seemed to be doing a lot of things. When they went into that witch cartoon, I had to scroll and see was it the same TV show; I believe I wondered that same thing when I was a kid watching. And I don't know how I felt as a kid watching, but that giant head character was making me uneasy, just seemed somewhat bizarre. But, kids think differently, and that's who it's for. I thank them for their efforts to entertain kids in a positive way and wish them all well and thanks for the upload.

I always wanted to F*** the chick in this show and I was in grade school

I hated this show as a kid . Still do 35 years later

i remember watching this. my god has time flown by

nice

GoBots!!!! Yes! Tiny Transformer ripoffs that my parents could actually​ afford

Do you have the episode where Gary played a trick on Goriddle by selling him a fake banana and caused bubbles to come out of Baxter's saxophone when the band was playing?

16:08 Witches Night Out with Gilda Radner.

13:02 Thurl Ravenscroft

Now I know why I always thought she originally sang this song

I always wondered what happened to the puppets and full body costumes?

roaring to the other side, where only rainbows hide

My left ear is lonely. =(

I still have some of the toys in these ads...

28:19 Off we go! 28:24 What the?!
