So does anybody remember Kimba? I used to watch this after school while eating pb&j sandwiches. If memory serves, which it seldom does, this was around 1971-72.
Oh, how I cry for my long-lost youth!! :(

OMG this show is right up there with The Brady Bunch and Paddle to the Sea for me! I used to "play" Kimba all the time-leaping from couch to couch! Speed Racer was on either before or after Kimba. I believe your dates are correct as I was in pre-school or K at that time. John was a fan as well. Thanks for bringing back those memories. :-)

Yeah, and this came on not long after Daktari was cancelled, so we could get our African lion fix.

This was my favorite cartoon!

You'll be unsurprised to learn that (as far as I know) this never made it to the UK (not when I was watching anyway, which was would have been a couple of years later I guess). I do "remember" Daktari, though, which was a great favourite, even if I persisted in calling it "Black Tarry".
