I don't think I saw this one in anyone else's posts and it's a Cult classic in my opinion:
Battle of the Planets
Thank you Bester for getting Star Fleet into the list.
I think both these shows are well overdue a remake and would fit in very well with the current vogue for story-arc based cult TV.
There's a documentary, or a set of interviews, on the Star Fleet DVD release. One thing that's mentioned on there is that ITV wanted a second series and it would have gone ahead. Sadly, a fire at the Japanese production house destroyed all the props, thus making it far more expensive to produce a second series.
BotP - Yep watched that and loved it at the time. Now I've seen Gatchaman though I can hardly watch it anymore. Half of the plot cut out of each episode and 7zark7 wedged in to pave over any continuity cracks/plot loopholes.
Probably showing my age but here are some of the ones I remember here goes the nostalgia
Watch with Mother
Bill and Ben the Flowerpot Men
Rag, Tag and Bobtail
The Woodentops
Andy Pandy
Torchy the Battery Boy
Captain Pugwash
Herge's adventures of Tin Tin
Supercar
Fireball XL5
Stingray
Champion the Wonder Horse
The Lone Ranger
Fury
Whirly Birds
Blue Peter with Val Singleton & Christopher Trace
Noggin the Nog
And the 70's too for the BBC shows.
They never gave them up simply because a new decade started.
Thankfully the majority of classic kids shows are now out on dvd , even some that are incomplete in the archives or don't exist in their original format.
Only 3 episodes exist from The Georgian House but the dvd has the other 4 in script format.
Sky and King of the Castle had episodes irreparably damaged when HTV were having them converted to a more modern format in the mid 80's so a few episodes of those only exist on home video formats , yet good old Network released them on dvd.
And of course there are loads where the colour tapes were wiped or junked and only B&W versions remain but we still have Escape Into Night , Timeslip, The Jensen Code and others on dvd.
Network have even released some volumes of Look Back on Telly .
These 2 disc sets take individual episodes from many ITV kids shows and make a great compilation.
In the case of Tingha and Tucker the dvd includes the only episode that remains.
