RowdyRebel Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Looking for something NOT completely stupid to put on the TV since it's 1,000,000 degrees outside with 1,000% humidity...found the original Thomas & Friends on the Roku channel...narrated by George Carlin. Hell, this is the $#!+ I used to watch as a kid...I can deal with this. Never realized George Carlin voiced a kiddy show. I was all of 5 in 1984 when this first aired.

Popular Post RowdyRebel Posted July 19, 2020 Author Popular Post Share Posted July 19, 2020 When you've got a 2 year old, there's a lot of stupid. They seem to like it. I refuse to have baby shark or anything else annoying like that on when I'm in the house. Luckily, he seems to gravitate towards anything with monster trucks or trains, so it's not too bad. 3 Quote When approaching a 4-way stop, the vehicle with the biggest tires has the right of way!

hurstscrambler Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 I remember hearing Ringo Starr and George Carlin narrating, being born in the mid-80s that show was all over the place when I was young. It’s much less offensive than some of the kid shows out there these days, but there has always been a lot of annoying ones out there.

1958 F.W.D. Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Rowdy does your little guy have the original wooden thomas toys and tracks? I wish I had them when I was a wee lad. All I had was sticks and rocks. Quote TWO STROKES ARE FOR GARDEN TOOLS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsmackpaul Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Well Im feeling left out, it wasn't even a show when I was a kid Only narrator I new of was Ringo, when my boy was young He tells me it's been wrecked by all the computer generated stuff on screen today Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainCrutch Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Yup, George certainly narrated the show, seems like someone went through the trouble of picking out the best moments for you! Just keep in mind Carlin had quite an interesting sense of humor and your kids may not be ready to hear his inside quite yet... Quote Who needs a back yard when you could have a Yard?!
