Following on from The Dickies song in the music poll,there is a film out featuring these guys! Not only that,it's a horror film too but from what I've seen of it doesn't look that good. I loved the show as a kid and always dreamt of having one of those buggies that they had. The cartoons in it,the sour grapes girls and the Dilys sisters made for a great Saturday morning show.

Never heard of the movie will have to look into it.
Banana Splits was a no miss show when little, loved the Sour Grape Gang and the cartoons, Uh-oh Chongo it’s Danger Island. I hate to admit it but I’ve still got the four Banana Splits plush toys in a box in the wardrobe.

Danger Island was the live action one wasn't it? Four Musketeers,microcar(?) Arabian Knights, any more?

Danger Island was the live action one, I think you are correct on the cartoons, I can’t remember anything else.
There was Dear Drooper and Fleegle getting the mail and the Snorky chase.

Any of our American friends remember this? I just looked it up, since it didn't ring a bell at first. I didn't watch it in its original run, and after reading about it have only a vague recollection of it, from its years in syndication I guess. I didn't watch much of the Saturday morning programming as a kid, though, especially the programs with live action for some reason.

Oh wow, the toys are AWESOME!! The Banana Splits song was a massive favourite of all kids my age, we were mad for it. Was it in Arabian Knights there was a genie or something that would shout "Siiiize of a...." for example "elephant!" and the subject would immediately grow or shrink to that size? Or did I dream that?
