I had been looking for this for years! Finally found his name in my French book! Now I'm wondering how I could even watch that show. I must have been 6 or 7 years old, I'm not sure. http://youtube.com/watch?v=lSt2ItEQqpA Anyone remember him??
Tintin was Belgian. I remember it as a kid. Hated it. Spielberg just got the rights to a make a movie of it last month.
It's funny. I've been telling Sis about it for years. I had images from the theme song and the space episode just stuck in my mind. Part of the theme song would get stuck in my mind for days. I found that video just now and showed it to her. She stared at the screen and said, "Oh wow. I remember this... I don't know from where but I KNOW this! I KNOW this! I don't know what it's about but I KNOW this!" We were kinda laughing about how weird it is that we have no idea what the show is about, but that we remember so many different scenes. To think she thought she'd never seen it.
When I was a kid, it used to be a comic. For a little while, that was all I checked out at the library. It stopped when they ran outta Tin Tin books for me to read.
I loved the moon mission episode, with the Von Braunian/Bonestellian red-checkerd spaceship. Snowy's little spacesuit was adorable.
