The Raccoons

Cause this show is awesome.

Bert Raccoon lives in evergreen forest, a peaceful, beautiful place full of life. but when he awakes, things change...bigtime. he has a lot of friends, which is good, because without them, he could never deal with Cyril sneer, the Miserable, ugly-looking arsehole whose only want is to make big bucks, even if it means destroying the evergreen forest.

This show goes on the list of Canada's Greatest creations. Also on this list is Trailer park boys, Mr. Dressup, Hockey night in Canada and The Red green show. but i like to think of the raccoons as near the top, because i never actually watched this show in the 80s, because i was never Around in the 80s. i remember watching it through the 90s and loving it.

But there's one ultimate thing that makes The raccoons so enjoyable...Lisa Lougheed. That girl is hot, sings like an angel, dances better than Paula Abdul, and needs to make waves in the entertainment world today.

Bottom line, you need to tune into the raccoons any chance you get.

9/10

This show should be noted for his songs.His theme song is the best I have ever heard and each episode had clasical '80s songs.The plot's may be a little silly but they oftenly have good points that work in real life too.My favorite star of this show is Cyril Sneer.In one episode we find out he left his home when he was young and has spend most of his life trying to build his fortune.He's grown to be a harsh,stingy man but still has a soft time.He even seems to be a humanitarian sometimes,when he isn't running a money making plan.He is intelligent and a quite complicated person.This show learned to me that there are no villains and heroes,just persons with different shapes of grey.Recomended.

This is a lovely television series that I remember from when I was only 5 or 6 years old, it was showing on The Disney Channel in the late 80's when it was still a pay cable channel and before Disney started airing politically correct crap like they do now days. I was unaware this was a French production, but the cartoons were great. Exceptional animation and interesting characters made this a stand-out. It hasn't been shown in over a decade but hopeful someone with common sense will revive it and bring it back to television. If you see it (which likely you won't), make sure you catch it.

This was a pretty cool cartoon. It was a little on the enviro side but it was still cool. And you got to love the theme song. And Cyrial Sneer makes me laugh. I can't wait to see the other half of the show that I hear about. My favorite character of course is Bert. He's so much more full of adventure than the rest of the characters and is the one that usually ultimately saves the day. So if you want to see some cool Canadian cartoons. Look for this one if you can.

The Raccoons and The Muppet Babies are the two best cartoon shows of the '80s, and there were a lot of great cartoons back then! I love this show because it's not some 30-minute toy commercial; it's a quality cartoon with great characters, great songs, and great plots. Like any fan of this show, I love Bert. He's just so courageous and his antics always give me a laugh. Cyril Sneer may come off selfish and mean, but he's really a very nice guy, especially with his son Cedric. And the songs in this show are some of the best songs ever made for a cartoon; they always fit in nicely with the plot and had that classic new wave sound to it (something that The Muppet Babies also have).

So, if you can find it, give this show a good watch. You'll love it!
