Check this out
:D

I remember Danger Mouse was running during the 80's on one of our 4 receivable TV channels. The dub was italian, but still it was very funny to watch even without understanding the dialoque.
I still can hear the opening theme's end in my mind: "Danger Moouusse, Danger Moouusse, Danger Moouusse....Ka-Boooom"(bomb exploding). :lol:

I also remember me being attracted by the scoundrel's pet 'Nero', which used to do weird movements and funny noises while his master was talking his monoloque.

I remember having seen some episodes of this a very long time ago ;) However I remember almost nothing :(

:) Yes, it was long ago indeed, but I still like the show. Many animations I saw in my youth still are partly sticking in my mind til now.
Animations in general are timeless anyway, they never grow old.

I'll check out eMule for possible DM ep downloads. B)

Cover for the Commodore 64 game. I scaned this just now just so I could post it here. :) Used to play this quite regularly. Mostly because I liked the show. THe game itself was not all that great.

Here in Oz they are releasing this on DVD. The first two volumes are already available. The third should be available by the end of the month (may '05). For a cost of only $15 per volume this is a good value collection which I am very tempted to collect.

Wish they would release La Linea. *Sigh* I loved that show. It was a "five minute filler" shown on the ABC here in Oz. This was how Danger Mouse was also shown. Both shows were on around the same time.
three and a half years.. for what?

I remember Danger Mouse and Penfold lived in a red pillarbox. Years later I was watching something else that had a similar reference and I realised that Danger Mouse had parodied it.
I can't remember the gag though, anyone know what the red pillarbox was about? Or the turbo lift down to the car that drove out from the gutter stone?

La Linea was cool. It's been release in German I think, I tried to buy it but I couldn't read the site. I also remember bits of the fillers The Red and The Blue, The Grumps, Morph, Doctor Snuggles, and AEIOU.

Yes, exactly ;)
Strange name, but I guess that's all they found to preserve the letters D.M. :D

Indeed... :lol: All I remember is hearing "Dare Dare Motus!!!" in the introduction.

Wow, I wonder how many cartoons I watched in my youth and forgot since. :huh:
