Nine Oh Real@olafurw You´re not the only one.
Ronflaix@olafurw wait, it was broadcast out of France?
@Ronflaix all over the place
@olafurw damn, you've seen the epitome of french culture there. Virtually* nobody of your or my age could avoid watching it here, be I through the first broadcast or the parents showing what's good to their children.
*Only exaggerating a bit

Miia Mustang@Ronflaix @olafurw I grew up with this, plus the inventor history one and the ancient history one
I also had a couple of vhs tapes of the scifi thing made by em, but it was dubbed in Swedish so lil me couldn't understand any of it lol
I was like 5-8 yo, so this was sorta big in my personal development :'D
taxet@miiamustang @Ronflaix @olafurw I swear, like 75% of my knowledge about human anatomy comes from this.
@taxet @miiamustang @olafurw ditto. It has something in its heart that really made its teaching stick to your mind, hasn't it.
@olafurw hey Ólafur, if you have the occasion (and the subs or dubbing), check the Shadoks. It's available for free in YouTube thanks to the French archives uploading them there. It's a jewel of absurdism that even earned hate mail for being so nonsensical people thought it would dumb down everyone.

Agnieszka R. Turczyńska@Ronflaix @olafurw Of course. Part of my childhood in Poland. Even yesterday we have been discussing some cartoon series from our childhood, and this series (with the space, historical, and traveling spinoffs mentioned). Les Mystérieuses Cités d’or and Oum le dauphin blanc also have been broadcast on Polish TV.

Will and the Fox@olafurw I've showed this to my kid two years back.
RejZoR@olafurw This cartoon was so awesome. I love how they visualized processes inside body using cartoon characters. I know I'm weird, but this was one of my favorite cartoons.

The Polish Dispatch@olafurw Such a throwback!
RealZero@olafurw All of those shows were lovely and this one, alone with the anime "Cells at Work" is awesome!
Also, the red blood cell girl and Psi/Claire are both cute in their own way! ♥️
Rita Serra@olafurw hi! I'm 36 and I loved this cartoon! It was genial!!!
Pterry@olafurw I already did one of those twice as a costume for Halloween 😁

Willow 🏳️⚧️🏴🇵🇸@olafurw i grew up watching those in the 90s. my own kid was obsessed with how the human body works so i got some of those books. read them as nighttime stories. 😂
@olafurw OMG, it had been almost three decades since I've last seen that...
... And now I want to go find the series and save it for posterity, though I never knew its English name...
@nanianmichaels "Once upon a time... Life"
@jenesuispasgoth I had found the name before.
But thank you, that was very nice of you! 😃
daniel lublin@olafurw which one is that, One upon a time.. Life?

@olafurw The dvd box sets are of course ripped and put into the “come here kids, and see what dad watched when he was your age” collection. ☺️
