[cassie121]

So, anyone else ever watch Davey and Goliath. Yep, it is actually a Lutheran cartoon. Here's some links. Goliath's voice is by far the best part.

Oh my. I remember watching Davey and Goliath as a kid, waaaaay back in the 60's! Thanks for the memory.

It's still on TV on Saturday's on the trinity broadcasting network

The very first time I visited a Lutheran Church I was surprised to learn that there were words to the Davey and Goliath theme song.

The newer ones they make now are way to liberal.

I have a four DVD set of the older episodes. We found them at the Dollar Tree over by the Tacoma Mall. I sometimes watch them with Jeremiah. I am contemplating buying two more sets. One for my nephew Malachi and one for my brother in law Joshua.

they still play them on TBN every Saturday at 12:30 ...right after "Bibleman"...***SIGH***

BibleMan? My mother-in-law has that on DVD. Cheesier than a toasted cheese sandwich. I can easily forgive the later episodes of SuperBook after just one episode of BibleMan. Even that trouble maker in Greatest Adventures is easier to forgive than one episode of BibleMan. To repeat myself - CHEESY.

Yeah, I used to watch this Lutheran clay-mation before going to a Protestant church on Sunday mornings as a kid. What did I know. I do remember that it was a product of the LCA.

Yep, same here! I used to watch that on Dr. Max. Any other Iowans remember Dr. Max (& Mombo)? I even sent away for "My Important Book".

 

[nikkipompom]

Yes and so did my mom and my dad.

But to be fair, Willie Aames, who portrays Bibleman had a raging drug habit when most of those episodes were being filmed. So that could have played a part in the cheese factor.

He was doing drugs... while trying to teach kids lessons about the Bible?!

Really?

That's nuts!

 

[emilylauren]

I have to say that I love cheesy television. :] It's why I'm such a fan of the original Star Trek series!

Not any more than the preacher who happens to have an addiction to inappropriate contentography or is involved in an affair-- we all sin, and even if Willie was doing a kid's Christian videos that doesn't mean he automatically *poof* becomes sin-free! Heck, if that was all it took I think there'd be a lot more cheesy kids shows out there

I remember watching Davey & Goliath regularly. Hmm, wonder if it was on after school? Don't remember. I used to watch Dr. Max & Mombo when visiting relatives in that part of the state and later on when I lived in that part of the state for a while. Dr. Max was very popular among college students. He got lots of cartoon requests from U of Iowa fraternities.
