Siobhan's Memories
Today I learnt from Siobhan that her favourite childhood shows were Playdays, Fireman Sam, Andy Pandy, Blue Peter, Hey Arnold and of course Tracy Beaker. She loved both the book and the TV series as a kid, and tonight in her honor I'll listen to Starring Tracy Beaker in her honor. She used to love eating bangers and mash - sausages, mash and gravy - and as a baby she liked Rusks. She also loved the subject HE when she was in school, so she was a good cook. If only the virus wasn't around, then I'd be visiting her house! Talking of Fireman Sam, she used to know Dilys Price and she remembers the Halloween episode really well. Well, it's that time of year, so...here you go!
Luke, Resus & Cleo Mini-Review: Me, You, And Transformers Armada: A Fatal Decision
LUKE: Such a shame that Sybil didn't do it for very long.
RESUS: What? This? A Fatal Decision?
LUKE: Yeah, it begins with Furaha and Sparkplug playing and swimming in the water and under it. They even swim with a whale.
CLEO: Y'know, we love to have fantasies of swimming in the ocean.
LUKE: Mmm-hmm, I relate to you, Cleo. And where does it stop? Right when Furaha and Sparkplug find a tunnel with ancient paintings. Nothing has ever been found in the ocean before.........now, anyone care for a bath?
Watch out for more Me, You, And Transformers Armada: A Fatal Decision soon!
-Yours sincerely,
Sybil, Luke, Resus & Cleo
Me, You, And Transformers Armada: A Fatal Decision
This morning's been a bit of a rough house - it started okay, but I forgot about Love Monster and the screenshot device on my computer isn't working! I mean, it's good that Love Monster helped a disabled person on today's show, but I may have to restart my computer if I want to get my screenshot device working again. And I don't WANT to be forgetful OR reckless! I want to be the best at everything. Check out the Fireman Sam episode 'Dilys' Forgetful Day' to see how I feel today:

How Shadow Spends Christmas
Let this little animation featuring Shadow, Silver and Lanka's best friend Cream the rabbit melt your heart!
Luke & Resus Review: Me, You, And Sonic X
RESUS: Isn't it strange how playing Sonic The Hedgehog games is the real world's equivalent of playing Zombie Kickboxer?
LUKE: Sonic is 30% cooler than fighting zombies. You fight robots! I used to love that game back in the real world, but look - seeing Sonic with the lions unleashes his wild side.
RESUS: I think you meant Me, You, And Sonic X.
LUKE: That's exactly what we're talking about in today's review. So, the film starts with a flashback to Sonic's childhood. When Sonic was young, his parents left him with Vanilla the rabbit and her baby daughter, Cream. Sonic was very good and waited for his parents, but all they brought back was some presents. Shouldn't Sonic say thank you?
RESUS: Forget film logic, we're not Rhett & Link. The film skips ahead to the present day, where a fierce storm transports the family to Green Hill Zone, where Sonic and his friends live. Sonic abducts Furaha, and the two unexpectedly and nearly defeat Eggman together, causing...
BOTH: Chaos Control!
*The two laugh*
LUKE: Good one, Resus.
RESUS: And Furaha sees a new and mysterious Me, You, And...exclusive character. Her name is Isabelle the raccoon, but she's yet to be identified. Anyway, Furaha finds Lanka and they find refuge in the Thorndyke household, where they witness Chris rescue Sonic.
LUKE: Who? Chris Thorndyke?
RESUS: Yep.
LUKE: And what's with the cubs making breakfast for themselves?
RESUS: Let's jump ahead - Kiburi said the cubs are able to make food for themselves. Anyway, Sonic takes Furaha for a little morning run and leaves her at the harbour to let her find Tails.
LUKE: That's cruel.
RESUS: She eventually finds Tails and her parents Kiburi and Ua tangled up in rope. She frees them, and frees Tails' plane, Tornado 2, as well.
LUKE: They go to Area 99 just in time to rescue Sonic and Cream, and in the next scene, Lanka and Cream form a close friendship over brushing their teeth, from squirting toothpaste on their faces to naming their teddy bear and crocodile tootbrushes.
RESUS: Nice little nod to Wallace & Gromit: The Wrong Trousers.
LUKE: What?
RESUS: Y'know, Tails standing outside the bathroom with a towel and a toothbrush with tired eyes and then getting smacked by the door!
LUKE: Cream, Lanka and Cheese have cornflakes and buttered toast for breakfast and...hey! Tails is wearing glasses and reading the newspaper! What has our friend Sybil made Tails into?
RESUS: An orange-furred bookworm, that's who.
LUKE: I find Sonic's backstory quite sad, but I find the movie so engaging you can literally relate to the characters in an instant.
RESUS: So, I'm like Shadow...
LUKE: And I'm like Sonic! But he's not introduced yet, so...race you!
RESUS: Oi! Come back!
Look out for more Me, You, And Sonic X coming soon!
-Yours sincerely,
Sybil, Luke, Resus & Cleo
Me, You, And Sonic X
Join Furaha as she embarks on an adventure faster than the speed of sound with new friends like Sonic, Tails and Cream! Will she defeat the evil Dr Eggman and save Station Square?
Also be sure to check out this video featuring Sonic and Tails eating ice cream. Be sure to watch at dinnertime!
Toon Market
Here's a packaging bundle I found for Toon Disney years ago. Here, the Toon Disney logo invades a market and the Jetix logo becomes a firework!

Anyone for Netflix & Chill?

On the 20th, she did an early version of Joking Around

[No, this won't do. That's an earlier idea, sorry!]
On the 27th, she saw the Goblin King
It reminded her of Scream Street, we missed that thing

There were three special days the week following that

She welcomed Scream Street back, oh what glory!
She found Dog's favourite composer is Camille Saint-Saens...
[I don't know what else rhymes with 'Ory']

Playschool Drama, ponies and a natural peak
On the 2nd, NOW I can mention The 'Hood,
With Teenage Fairytale Dropouts, that's good
On the 7th, she got a Bluey badge and card
What else can't make her life extra hard?
The 18th and 19th were the best days
She took a weekend off not to work but to play
On the 21st, calmness and jungles collide
With such a peaceful secret life to hide
On the 29th, she did Learn With Bingo
An instructional and educational 'Hood video!
Now that's all until the end of this year,
Just sit back and relax
There's more to come this year on this blog
So until that stupid virus goes away...
Enjoy the good things in life!
The 'Hood: Up & Down
One of the new episodes for The 'Hood I'll do soon is 'Up & Down'. Up & Down is the alternate name for one of the new Bluey episodes, Seesaw (no, not the controversially scary Teletubbies episode). In The 'Hood's episode, the gang decide to climb their favourite tree, but Bingo, Tiny, Templeton and Marcia stay behind on the ground and watch. When the gang get stuck, Marcia rallies her friends into action, showing viewers how to get help in an emergency by dialling 000 (that's in Australia, you call 999 here). Until I make 'Up & Down' and show Aussie youngsters visiting the blog how to dial 000, you can find more emergency information for kids here:
My Dream About Hammerbarn
Last night, I had a dream about sitting in a dark room with only a small window lit up above me. I was watching the Bluey episode Hammerbarn, waiting to question why I should bring Bluey to the UK. Should I? Should I not?
