BananaMan Intro

[usmanmatty]

What a fucking legend.

[MHorton1000]

Yeah Roy, I love Bananaman. Ever alert to the call to action!

[CheeseB31]

Class! Love the theme tune

[multibronybrony]

Lmfao wtf

[SabbyNeko]

Shaky cam made things intense even back then!

[TheLlamaPie]

I feel awkward for being British right now...

[shazdavidtennant11]

i love bannaman

[GhostBusta234]

Amazing Atheist Away!!

[Sabbotage]

Do you think Eric ever got potassium poisoning?

[StopmeatGoveg]

@Sabbotage You'd have to eat 400 bananas all at once to get potassium poisoning lol. I eat 20-40 a day with no problems.

[snorb1tz]

I'm a 80"s child......... my brother n I used t rush home from school t watch this, up next is count duckula me thinks

[TimeLordParadox]

I never knew when I first started watching this when I was 5 or 6 that the Goodies did all the voices for it.

[effinpeaz]

Aw! I remember watching this as a kid! I was really really young, but I don't know, this intro got me all hyper. Ah, childhood.

[ihate40]

OMG! i wana cry! brings back so many childhood memeories!

[AzzaKTM]

I swear the narrator sounds like Tim Brook Tailor...

[UrgentementeUK]

@AzzaKTM Because it is.. :)  (yes, I know, I should never start a sentence with because..)

[TheBenben76]

great" remember this from years ago and it still brings a smile to my face ! god if i could go back in time ahahahah please !

[SuperSonicRULAA1]

WTF!!!

[eclectica1]

There was an actual Acacia Road nearby where I used to live, and one of the kids I went to school with lived there. Poor child, had to put up with questions of whether he'd seen Bananaman lately all the time.

Look we were little kids back then, alright!!!!!!!!!!!

[keithmcneill55]

I ate a million bananas when I was a boy. Twenty years later I'm still struggling to get a good body :)

[AngelusDlion]

so apparently he gets massive tumors when he eats a banana?

[Elekkay]

i like bananas too mmfff

[Lisergishnu]

Nightmare fuel

[LudicrousBarchart]

Eric proper deepthroats that banana.

[auschili]

lol anyone remember apple man?

[abbafan50986]

@auschili Yeah, he was called Steve Jobs. He didn't die that long ago...

[BelatedCommiseration]

If you look at stuff like earthworm jim, freakazoid and the tick, they wouldn;t have been there without banaman! He was the original 'spoof' superhero...although I forgot how retarded the animation looks....eric looks like he has something wrong with him or about to have a stroke or something...

[EerieBetrayal]

Oh 'Eck!

[iluvmonkeys666]

lol. i always remember "ERIC IS... BANANA-MAN!"

[chwatermelon]

THIS SHOW

[SonOfFurzehatt]

This is one of the most unoriginal kids' TV series ever created - obviously designed by a broadcasting company committee. Kids like superheroes. Kids like bananas. Job done.

I still enjoyed it, though.

[1Thunderfire]

@SonOfFurzehatt Actually, it was based from the cartoon strip Bananaman in the Dandy comic. My Dad used to read it while I was more of a Beano fan myself. Mind you, both are really expensive now and the quality has gone downhill...

[MrNowyouknowhow]

It would be hard to be banana man in Perth, Australia. They are just so damn expensive. His parents will have to be pretty darn rich.

[imstm]

@MrNowyouknowhow haha true !

[Blazingwheel]

most epic pure random cartoon ever

[chrissomerry]

Simply Epic, with a capital E.

[LegionIscariot]

Does he walk around with his banana in his pocket?

[NameNotNeeded]

The banana that was injected with 3 tons of steroid

[MrOhioblood330]

80's baby in tha house

[zizeff]

haha classic

[Blazingwheel]

boy + banana = bananaman  lol how original.

[Mascro1977]

Eric never take your Bananas to a convent.

[80eighter]

I wonder if 29 Acacia Road is anywhere near 22 Acacia Avenue.

[Uberjetsu]

I think burnt face man was inspired by Bananaman :P

[BLANKNOTING]

@NewSuperAvenger D.C. "Bananaman" With Appleman

[MrJonnyPepper]

WHAT!?

[mistofoles]

We all know this was based on a comic strip that used to appear in the long defunct NUTTY comic (Don't we?)

[metalWeirdo77]

@mistofoles

It ran it the Dandy for a while too, that's where I remember it from

[kevthedrummer]

fake and gay! I ate a banana once and this did not happen!

[ooOmegaSupremeoo]

@kevthedrummer

You are fake and gay! Wtf would make you think that eating a banana would turn you into a superhero?!? It's a cartoon for christ's sake.

[kevthedrummer]

@ooOmegaSupremeoo haha you're funny

[pickle03]

And then the price of bananas sky rocketed and Eric's parents couldn't afford to buy him bananas...

[Joshmegatron]

my teacher showed me this in class i just face palmed myself XD

[capnhands]

I turn into a superhero when I snort cocaine

[WanderingTwin1]

@capnhands a loser, soon to be dead super hero! 

[capnhands]

@WanderingTwin1 its a joke, like your country of Britishtstan

[WanderingTwin1]

@capnhands bad joke! and yes this country is a joke, i despise it, so no offense there!

[blackwing2thedragon]

@capnhands ... Snowflame?

[SabbyNeko]

@blackwing2thedragon SNOWFLAME IS STEALING YOUR SHOES

[WhizzKid4Life]

I used to own a video of this a long time. Well actually it was my brother's when he joined the Dandy club, I was pretty gyped when I never got a video tape from the Beano club not even Beano video stars.

[ComradeTimler]

I like how he turns from a school boy and then a Man!

[hubu99]

He turns into.... BUH NAH NAH MAHN!!

[4getfulness16]

Kid: So...if I eat a banana I'm gonna turn in to a superhero? AWESOME! *eats banana*.......you let me down, TV. YOU LET ME DOWN!

[ninjagrenade410]

worst superhero EVER

[ryhorn100]

Whoever came up with the idea of Bananaman must have been absolutely bananas, LOL! Not that I mean it in a bad way.

[HeeroYuy911]

god I remember watch this when I was a kid.

epic.

[capnhands]

I become a super hero when I snort coke

[EBtheDopeman]

@capnhands I became a super hero when I got sober... I just decided to MAN UP and live life on life's terms ;)

[josera234]

what kind of magic did Eric use to peel the banana?

[frost010101]

I name my son Eric after Bananaman!!!!!!!!!!

[ashland1977]

This is one of the things I thought I would NEVER find. I remember they used to run this right after Dangermouse on Nickelodeon in the 80's. Awesome!

[stguns79]

I cant belive I have found it!!!!!Bloody good!!!!!

[BusinessDog2000]

I showed this to some of my younger "anime-tized" friends who had never heard of this, and they said it was the most shittest "WTF" thing they had ever seen. I ate a bannana and killed them with my bare hands.

[mouse264]

Screw Superman! This is where it's at!

[genestarwindjf80]

Can't believe I forgot bout this classic!

[MuscleShark2]

my favourite cartoon back in the day. cartoons are crap now.

[pokemonmaster70007]

[natza89]

[d12bro]

[BLANKNOTING]

@Johnpicha

Copy That!

"Bananaman"...

3D

[FoolsGil]

wut.

[JimboTheAussie1]

i forgot about that this one wow i feel old now lol

[tenderheart17]

Got the dvd set yesterday, but was absolutely disgusted that the company that produced the dvds has not made mention anywhere on the discs or cover insert who the characters are created and voiced by (although most of us know who it is). Shame on you, Magna Home Entertainment!! No pudding for you!

[BLANKNOTING]

@Johnpicha

You Start Work That..

3D..

Thank You..

[shikamaru668]

mr. bun the baker

[Jude1972ful]

29 Acacia Road.. ha ha......

[LoveJones1982]

I totally forgot about this i loved this

[mattd28]

lol remember this

[MsBuppett]

gawd i remember this...lol..

[geekfest2000]

Great show. But I wonder why they felt the need to tell us the kid's address?

[tenderheart17]

@geekfest2000

It's an old 'in joke' with The Goodies. __Acacia Rd. adresses featured in several Goodies episodes.

[Pspimp]

@geekfest2000 BECAUSE FUCKING BANANAMAN LIVES THERE!

[geekfest2000]

@Pspimp And?

[Pspimp]

@geekfest2000 WE CAN GO AND VISIT HIM AND GET HIS AUTOGRAPH!

[geekfest2000]

@Pspimp Ah. Enough said! Hey, let's check his house on Google Earth!

[Klistern2]

@geekfest2000 its an imperative piece of if information.

[kaleluk31]

@geekfest2000 i can can imagine it on the news that pedos actually look up the adress lol

[zombiesonar]

@geekfest2000 pedo's with a banana fetish.

[philipmarie1854]

@geekfest2000 Its part of the Comic mythos.

[officialmcsi]

@geekfest2000 lol

[manstie]

@geekfest2000 To catch a predator...

[xophaser]

I always thought it was made for kids to eat more bananas

[mintyspace]

Bananaman rocks, and its not ripping off Superman or Batman, like people have suggested, its spoofing them, and I say why not??

[vorpalspaz]

ripping off superman

[damieandark]

@vorpalspaz who doesnt rip off superman though?.

[toby070]

this is the best quality for a Video I have ever seen

[Tracte2]

I used to watch "Superted" together with "Bananaman" when I was a kid.

[TheFirecogicuk]

@Tracte2 Me too and I proudly own them all on DVD!
