I remember this very well. I always wanted his bag of tricks.. he had everything in it. I loved it..But none of my friends remember it. I can't believe it's here, but shouldn't be surprised.
I not only remember this show I was obsessed with it. I was 8 when this came on, and I was glued to the TV. Not only that but I told my mom that when I had kids my daughter was gonna be named Lily. This is when I was 8! LOL Man this really takes me back and it's another great Lou Scheimer production (along with Filmation!)
I just typed this in at random after locating the Barberpapa opening. I seem to remember this being on Sunday mornings. Anyone remember the Sport Billy PSAs?
This cartoon was the VERY first cartoon I had ever seen in my life. I used to watch this show on USA Network's old show "Cartoon Express". This cartoon was great for the time.
I remember this show quite well. Shown during the school summer holidays in '82-'84(?) at an odd time. Some time around 11am, when most other kids' programmes had finished. I'm from the Yorkshire region of ITV, so it was shown, 'oop north', as far as I know.
@ZePtAt05, yep me too people think I'm crazy when I mention this cartoon...and I actually remembered the name and people still thought I was nuts...but here it is!!! :D
AWESOME SHOW!!!! I remember it well, but in my circle I seem to be the ONLY one that remembers it. *sob* Best cartoon series EVER without a doubt. Thankyou so much for sharing.
WHen i was a kid, my head was extremely large and I think it was because of this cartoon. Large-headedness is not all its cracked up to be and people have got to consider all apects of such a disease before they get their head all big. You will definitely need new hats.
i myself have a huge cranial development,and ive always blamed this prick for it,it just seem so cool,but im bald now and its like a fuckin t-rex egg.
Man,. I wished this series was on DVD, but with BCI Eclipse out of business and Entertainment Rights sold to another company (which is US based,btw), it very likely won't be happening. *sigh*
I was searching specifically for sport billy. I've a rucksack here with all kind of extra's i've put on, it reminded me of this cartoon i watched when i was younger. I'll never forget sport billy :)
STAR FLEET !?!? KICK ASS! That was an mazing kids show. quite gloomy and nasty too if i recall, in terms of it being a kids show i mean. Liked the female leader of the bad guys with the centipede over one eye or sommink !
i would like anybody send me the english lyrics for this opening by Sport Billy! I love this song and would like learn this! I' from Brazil, South America.
OH MY GOODNESS!!! Thank you so much for uploading this! I remember this from childhood and only 1 of my friends even remotely rembers it. Back in the days when kids actually liked getting out of the house to play sports and not Wii-sports. LOL
OMG! i have been looking for this for ages, all i could remeber for years was the mini growing bag, with the mini growing stuff inside. you have no idea some of the results google gave me...
Ha! Same here... I knew this existed (used to hire it on video from our local library as a kid all the time!) and remembered the basiscs (magic bag, theme song, two kids, villain) but could not find the theme until now! Thanks to the uploader! Oh, is it weird that as a kid, I had a bit of a "crush" on the villainess???
You know, it might have been '81-'82, but I thought it was more like '79-'80. That's only 2 years difference; maybe I was wrong about that. I grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, to answer your question.
I was watching this in 1979. It was on every Wednesday, I remember. I forget what it replaced (without a warning too, if I might add). But I remember, suddenly this was on every Wednesday morning.
I thougt it was spanish. It was broadcasted here, in Spain, in 1.982, when de World Cup was taking place, as well as Naranjito, wich was surely spanish. I don´t really know wich one of both of them was worse.
"Sport Billy was a 1979 animated television cartoon made by (U.S.) Filmation Associates, initially for broadcast in Germany. In 1982, Filmation carried the show over to the United States for syndication, and as a summer replacement in NBC's Saturday morning children's programming.
I remember watching this as i child......I fucking hated it and longed for the next episode of Scooby Doo to come on. Does anyone know what country it originated from?
fcuk!! what a flashback lol,i used to love sport billy as a kid and every time i mention old school cartoons my mrs recons i made it up during my lsd/magic mushroom years ha ha.
