Childhood Series



Believe it or not, when I was a child there weren't many series on TV, besides, I used to live in the 8th region, in a lost town in the middle of nowhere and we did not receive much technology nor the state of the art cinema, theatre, cultural venues, etc.

It was the late 80's and national TV was the only option available, and consequently, the very limited programmatic grid they offered and the series that you could see was quite classical, the typical Disney style, with Donald Duck, Mickey Mouse, and my favourite: Goofy.

I cannot tell you that I really remember their adventures on screen because I was less than 5 years old, but I do remember having felt very proud after receiving positive appraisal from my parents when I was able to properly pronounce Goofy's Spanish name (Tribilín), which was hard for someone mastering the language in his early years. 

As years went by, things changed in my life and in the country, and in the year 1995, there was a new service arriving in the region, it was CABLE TV!!!!! The first couple of months, and since it was a real novelty, not many people seemed to have hired the service, and the channels were not all yet given in Spanish. It was then when I discovered Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network Channels, and also Scooby-Doo. To my best profit, the TV shows for kids were broadcast in English only!.

I remember I really Really REALLY loved not understanding the shows but I was happy when I realized Scooby and his gang had solved a mystery, I was happy just by understanding even only the gist of the episode.


Later in my life, I changed my likes from cartoons to soap operas and series, series with human beings and with more adult-like topics. My favourite has always been Friends and Seinfeld, and still, nowadays I prefer series rather than cartoons, although to be honest, after letting myself be stimulated by my current students, I am developing a craving for anime series and movies.
