What Shows Did Your Parents Make You Watch as a Child?

[Adventurer]

Was there ever a TV show your parents made you watch as a child ? (Or you watched because they watched)

>.< Little House on the Prarie >.<

And my mom used to watch the soap opera, All My Children and I hated it.

Mr. Rogers
Barney
Reading Rainbow
Not to say I didn't enjoy them though ^_^

Everything I watched I enjoyed.

Sailor Moon
Dragonball
Samurai Pizza Cats
Pokemon

I don't really remember watching the shows that are intentionally made for little kids brains to develop, like Mr. Rogers, and Reading Rainbow, although I have seen them several times on TV.

Sesame Street "educational programing is great for kids"

My parents never made me watch anything. Actually, they thought (and probably still do) that I watched way too much TV.

Though, my mom was the one who introduced me to The Simpsons at age eight. She also used to hate it when we'd watch The Polka Dot Door, since she said it had no value whatsoever (most children's programming has either educational or socialization value to it), calling "The Polka Dot Bore."

Make me watch? None. My parents let me watch Sonic, Rugrats, Loony Toons, Darkwing Duck, Gargoyles, Duck Tales (whoo whoo!), and all those wonderful stuff my generation grew up with.

Ah, good times. ^_^

Barney
Seaseme Street
Tellietubbies
Tots TV
Rosie and Jim
Old Bear
And a bunch of other shows I can't remember. I enjoyed them, but I was around 4 at the time.

Hey that was basicly my watch list when I was young. I miss Darkwing Duck, and Rugrats. Once Dill was introduced the show just went down hill for me and was forever scared when they came up with 'All Grown up'

But I remember watching all of those shows when I was younger...

But yea my parents didnt force me to watch anything. They did prohibit me from watching South Park, Married... With Children, Simpsons.

But that little 'ban' was short lived. Now as long as its not pornographic my mom doesnt really care.
