I mille colori dell'allegria

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 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' was the best! Now this was the best show that ever aired on the Disney Channel, and it's funny because as soon as it was taken off, Disney Channel just wasn't quite the same (though it was still cool because they still showed obscure animated specials and movies!).

This was hands down the best cartoon of the '80s. There were a lot of fantastic cartoons, but this was the coolest one (though 'Muppet Babies' is way up there too). The animation's not cheaply done, the songs were great and added a lot of feel to the show, and the characters were both cute and interesting. It was also the only Canadian cartoon to be produced entirely within the country (just an interesting fact).

My favorite episode is probably the one where Lisa takes up smoking under pressure from an old friend. It was touching, but not overly preachy. You could really learn a lot from this show, and it really needs to be either put back on American TV or released on DVD.

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

I am 25, and live very near Canada. I remember watching this show via a Canadian station probably twelve or thirteen years ago. I loved it. It was right up there with Ducktales, Gargoyles, Aladdin, Dinosaurs, Gummi Bears and Ren and Stimpy (when Ren and Stimpy first aired, I was too young to understand most of the adult humor it had, so my father and I both enjoyed the series, but for different reasons). These were true classics, unlike most of today's cartoons (although I must admit, I enjoy most episodes of Spongebob Squarepants). Hopefully I will soon be having a child of my own, and be able to introduce them into a world of television that includes I Love Lucy, The Honeymooners, Ducktales, The Raccoons, Ren and Stimpy, You Can't Do That on Television and Spongebob Squarepants.
