What did you watch growing up?

ncase2 · March 2014

DH and I were talking about this last night - I always end up singing random Disney songs, musical songs, etc. to DS, especially when he gets whiny because it helps quiet him down. DH NEVER knows what I'm singing - he seriously thinks I make all these songs up, lol. I actually have taken to You-Tubing them because he didn't believe me. A couple nights ago I was singing "Bear Necessities" from the Jungle Book, "Prince Ali" from Aladdin, and then last night I was singing songs from The Sound of Music.

Anywho, was I just a latch-key kid who watched too many movies, or is my DH the weirdo who does't have every Disney song on record memorized (lol) #ilovedisneymovies ? What did you watch?

I have also been known to sing a Barney song or two... I blame my sister, who was two years younger than me and #barneyobsessed. Srsly - we had to watch those damn videos all.the.time.

This thing still scares me.

I was and still am a total Disney kid, H too. I always sing Disney songs, a Barney song or two, and even the theme song to Sesame Street.

The Sound of Music! I watched all th Disney movies and love all the songs. Not strange at all, but maybe it's more of a girl thing?

OP that sounds exactly like me and DH. I'm over here singing beauty and the beast straight through from the beginning and he is amazed at my memory. My sister and I memorized everything as kids!!! I bet it would be hard to find a guy that has the same singing and memory skills... But they remember all the random sports facts and trivia, so they have that!

I've never seen the sound of music, FFMC? I usually sing made up songs about whatever I'm doing.

There is a disney station on pandora that we'e been listening. Lion King and Beauty and the Beast. She really loved the Supercalifragilistic (sp?) song. Probably bc its so upbeat.

He doesn't know any of the girl movies. He was 1 of 2 boys. It's going to be fun introducing BOTH of them to the world of Disney princesses.....

Whaaa??? I have to find this station, stat! @Charlie1178 - now I have that song in my head! Is it sad all it took were a few words of the song and I now remember the whole thing?? lol

I grew up watching more kid stuff than DH.

I have the Now That's What I Call Disney CD and it's pretty inclusive. I drive DH crazy singing along with it. Now that we have LO, I can get away with it more often, but I've always done it.

I loved Disney movies, but when I watched tv it was Nickelodeon

shelley1002 · March 2014

I sing the Smurfs song and the theme for the Banana Splits all the time. And now it's stuck in my head.

I watched Disney but mostly Dukes of Hazzard, Sesame Street, Mr. Rogers, 3-2-1 Contact, Electric Company, Banana Splits, Star Wars, Brady Bunch, 80s and 90s sitcoms (Alf, Growing Pains, family times, wonder years, TGIF, Cosby show) and tons of cartoons (looney tunes, smurfs, snorks, thundercats, GI Joe, Voltron, HeMan, She-Ra, captain Caveman, Yogi Bear, Jabberjaw, Mighty Mouse, justice league...). Basically anything on Boomerang. I was a tv addict.

Love Disney and random musicals

@wedding06‌ Fresh Prince was totally happening here last week

emmylou78 · March 2014

Non musical tv shows I watched... I was totally obsessed with Nick-at-night, esp when they did the "block party" in the summer. Back to back episodes of The wonder years, Bewitched, I Love Lucy.
