Bassie & Adriaan

This bassie en adriaan series really is one of the best of many Bassie en Adriaan have made in the past. The whole atmosphere is just great, the Van Toor brothers vary thrilling and humorous moments in a way every kid loves it. And not only kids love it, I still love it too. Tho' the soundtrack is ripped of various other movies and series, it fits this series perfectly. The images of the area of the professor's secret base combined with Tubular Bells or Vangelis music are just great. In my opinion the old series are much cooler than the newer Bassie en Adriaan. In the new series (based around a trip throu Europe and the USA) it's more about education and stuff, the old series like this one are more just entertainment. Also the bad guys in the old series are waaaaay more evil, in the new series they're just a bunch of stupid weird guys.

Great series!

Bassie en Adriaan is a series that I hold close to my heart, and it unquestionably deserves a 10/10 rating. In my view, it stands as one of the greatest children's series ever created. Having watched it over 150 times, its charm and appeal never seem to fade, even as an adult. The series manages to strike a perfect balance between humor, adventure, and educational content, making it enjoyable for viewers of all ages.

What's particularly remarkable about Bassie en Adriaan is its enduring appeal. Unlike many children's shows that lose their magic as one grows older, this series maintains its allure, proving to be just as entertaining for adults as it is for kids. It's a testament to the quality of the writing and the universal themes it explores.

My favorite part of the series is 'Reis door Europa' (Journey through Europe). This segment stands out for its adventurous spirit and the way it introduces young viewers to different cultures and landmarks across Europe. It's both fun and educational, a combination that's rare to find in children's programming.

It's a shame that Bassie en Adriaan doesn't receive as much recognition today as it did in the past. This series is a gem from a bygone era, one that deserves to be celebrated and remembered for its significant contribution to children's entertainment.

When i was a little kid i always watch Bassie and Adriaan,

the first series the boogeyman was too scary,

but the diamand serie and the secret of the key was more thrilling fun, not so childish like in later series, with the arrival of crook fast Japie.

B1 and B100 are my favorite crooks. B1 was a more obscure figur also because i like more obscure characters as a kid also yes. B100 has a skinny face and yells the whole time i always have bad luck!. the most Childish character of the show was Fast Japie he is soo irritating.

This serie is absolute entertainment like all the Bassie and Adriaan-adventures.

In this adventure we see the villains B-100 and Handy Harry for the first time.

Bassie and Adriaan travel all over Europe to find secret packages.

Great fun !

Once again, the Van Toor brothers deal with an important social problem in this engaging and well-written TV series. Far from capitalising on the traditional portrayal of the 'mad professor', they show a retired scientist continually unable to face the world and reality, forcing him to resort to crime. This is a detour from the traditional Van Toor films, where the chief protagonists Bassie and Adriaan take up the egregious Baron. It tones down the traditional dialectism of the series in favour of a far more subtle approach. In the process, we see how the tortured figure of the crying professor slowly falls to pieces and succumbs to his own delusions. But there are many more sides to the story, making this the most sincere of the Van Toor productions.
