Tintin, a TV show? Wha?
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4668268860759158229&sourceid=zeitgeist

I watched through the whole episode, it's pretty good for a show i don't regularly watch and had never even heard of. I mean, I knew there were Tintin comic books, but I didn't know there was a TV show or anything like that.

Virginia.

Edit: j/k, Virginia is not a country. State-ism, nationalism, and school pride = stupid. I live in the area commonly referred to as Virginia in the area commonly referred to as the United States of America.

Thanks for the link, brings back memories. I remember watching these back when I was just a little wee toddler.  ;)

I've read all of the Tintin (Known as Kuifje here) comics, as somebody living in Belgium, you're pretty much obliged to :p

Awesome :) Weird to hear the english voices though when you're used to hearing them in your own language. A cool thing back then was that whoever translated them into Danish went to extraordinary length to expand Haddock's vocabulary of swear words, to the point that I'd estimate about 1/4 of our swear words to this day hail in some way from him :p

I always knew there was a show, but never actually watched it.

Amusingly I have almost all the comics from an earlier age. I'm missing Flight 751 and some others, about five. Don't remember which.

Blistering barnacles! I read every single one of those comics back when I was in high school, but I never caught them on TV. Thundering typhoons, that's great. :)

I have to say, the Moon arc was thoroughly entertaining, as was the whole Unicorn story. Aaaah, haven't watched it in years. Fantastinc music, too. Just a damned good show, really. :yes:

Re: Tintin, a TV show? Wha?
Yeah, I read it when I was a kid too.

Though the kiosks stopped selling them when the war started, so I was perpetually stuck in the storyline somewhere when he was in a blizzard and found some cave, and that was it forever.

Usually people refer World War Two as The War but I don't think BD is old enough, and the Third Gulf War is a bit too recent

Ooh Tintin, this does bring back memories. Time to times the show reruns here, gotta have a look again sometimes.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill
