Has anyone seen this? I used to watch this on recorded VHS all the time as a kid. I was born in late 1985, but I loved it. I'm thinking it was supposed to be a pilot for a series that never came to fruition.

A party of 4 or 5 characters is traversing an old temple or dungeon.

They come to a fork in the corridor with a door on the left and a door on the right.

After some discussion, they choose left while the fat fool in the party says he wants to go right.

All goes well and they come to another corridor. The old man in the party says that, since left has been working so far, they should continue going left.

This happens a few times, all the while the fool is yelling that he wants to go right.

Finally they come to a pair of doors and the fat fool loses his temper, yelling, "I wanna go right, I wanna go RIGHT!!"

He pushes everyone through the right door and they immediately fall into a trap and end up holding on for dear life above a pit of lava.

This would have been on TV in the US between 1988-1992. A few of the details may not be accurate (like maybe it was a different trap than a lava pit) but this is generally how the scene went.

I'd offer a reward to anyone who can help me find this!

Are there any streaming/screening services to watch all the original 80s classics like HeMan, Transformers, Saber Rider, Mysterious Cities of Gold, etc?

Hey everyone, I’m trying to remember a cartoon from my childhood that I watched in the 90s, but it might be even older. The details are really fuzzy, and I’m not sure if I’m remembering them correctly.

Here’s what I can recall: there was a mountain with a cave, and some teddy bears (I think) were trying to solve the mystery of a strange noise coming from inside the cave. I also vaguely remember an opening theme with a rainbow, but again, I’m not 100% sure.

Does anyone have any idea what this could be? Any help would be appreciated!

In "The Magic Flower," there is an unforgettable scene that captures the tension between Blink and Shady. Blink, with her kindness and desperation, goes to Shady's house to beg her to help with the magic flower ceremony. Shady, with a malicious expression on her face, responds indifferently: "I have to think about it." The scene clearly shows the conflict between the two. Shady's malice is reflected not only in her words but also in her demeanor, while Blink's kindness and fear are evident on her face. Blink's patience wears thin, and she finally yells, leading to a heated argument between the two. The shouting and confrontation highlight the intensity of their emotions and the complexity of their characters. This moment powerfully illustrates the themes of friendship, conflict, and redemption that make The Blinkins such a memorable and beloved series.

Does anyone remember watching the series Cococinel? Many of those who saw this believe that it was just simple and childish shorts, however, the second season, which is lost media, had 11-minute episodes with super mature plots. The episodes of this season were on YouTube around 2008 but were deleted in 2015 because the channel that uploaded them was taken down due to copyright issues for uploading other series and movies in French. I'm not exaggerating, it's really lost, it can't be seen in any available language. There are a few shorts from season 1 on YouTube, but even that season is not complete, there are 52 episodes in total and only about 10 are available, taking into account all the dubs. Meanwhile, season 2 is totally lost. In this season, Cococinel's sister appeared, her name in Argentina was Babimiel, the pastel blue ladybug with pink bow. She had a very human and relatable personality, she was very loving and was in love with Cocometeo, a meteorologist bug. Also in this season, more characters arrived, one was green, I don't know her name in Argentina, but she was a gossiping and mocking ladybug , in Spain and France, she was called Cocograss. Does anyone remember? Also in this season, 2 bee sisters appeared with their father, the mayor bee. The ending of the second season was very dramatic and tearful, it was divided into 2 parts, it was more or less like this..." Valentine’s Day (S2E24)

In Episode 24 of Season 2, titled "Valentine's Day," Cocometeo returned to Cocoland, but first, he called Babicinel, telling her that he had come back just to spend Valentine's Day with his girlfriend and also to celebrate her birthday, which was the next day. Cocometeo told her that there would be a meteor shower that Valentine's night in Cocoland and asked if she would like to watch it with him from his meteorological observatory. Babicinel, very excited, accepted, but not everything would go as she expected.

That night, when Babicinel arrived at Cocometeo's house, ready to watch the meteor shower with her boyfriend, she immediately noticed he was different. Gone was the charming, kind-hearted boy she once knew—although he had always been somewhat conceited and slightly rude, he had a good heart. Now, he was cold and extremely controlling, speaking with a mysterious and terrifying tone.

Cococinel, Babicinel's sister, had always warned her that Cocometeo gave off bad vibes. It seemed Cocometeo had found out about this, as he cruelly exclaimed to Babicinel, "Forget the nonsense your sister tells you. Don't listen to her. She doesn't know what she's talking about. She's just a poor fool. Forget about her; now you only have me, okay Hearing this, Babicinel felt a surge of fear and unease. The way he spoke about her sister made her heart sink. She tried to defend Cococinel, but Cocometeo's response was filled with fury and malice: "Don't talk back to me. You will obey me, so come down for dinner now."

Despite realizing that things weren't right, Babicinel still felt a deep love for Cocometeo. She was torn between her affection for him and the terrifying change she saw in his behavior.

The next day, on February 15th, Babicinel's friends organized a grand birthday party for her. However, Babicinel felt a pang of sadness as Cocometeo was not there. Despite everything, she was still madly in love with him. The twins, Ben-Oui and Ben-Non, informed Babicinel that he had returned to Coco-Italy without saying goodbye.

As everyone danced and enjoyed the party, the phone suddenly rang. Madame Cigale picked it up and exclaimed, “Babicinel!! It's Cocometeo, he's calling for you!!” Cocometeo apologized and promised that he would return the next day for the grand Cocoland festivities, just to be with her.

The Day of the Cocoland Festivities (S2E25)

Finally, the day of the Cocoland festivities arrived. Everyone decorated Cocoland for the occasion and were filled with joy. Babicinel, however, was not as happy; she was nervous, wondering if Cocometeo would come or not.

Suddenly, Cocomauve approached her and said, "If you want, you can spend the party with me."

Babicinel was thrilled as she liked Cocomauve very much and said, "Oh, I'm such a romantic, I'm in love with two boys!"

Nephila, the weaving spider, made a beautiful white dress for Babicinel to wear to the party. As Babicinel happily walked with her friend Cocomauve, she suddenly thought she saw Cocometeo in the crowd. She became very nervous and ran away from Cocomauve and her other friends to search for Cocometeo.

A vagabond cockroach approached her to ask for alms. Babicinel asked him if he had seen an orange male ladybug around. The cockroach refused to speak, so Babicinel offered him money in exchange for information. He then said that he had seen Cocometeo heading towards the Coco-Hotel with an elegant-looking bee.

Terrified, knowing it could be the evil Levallois, Babicinel ran towards the Coco-Hotel. The cockroach grabbed her arm, yelling, "HEY, GIVE ME MY MONEY!!!" Feeling extremely nervous, Babicinel pushed him away and shouted, "Get off, you disgusting bug!"

Babicinel, dressed in her white dress, rushed to the Coco-Hotel, desperately searching for Cocometeo. She found the room where he was staying, and when she opened the door, her worst fears were confirmed. There, with the wicked Levallois, he stood. Levallois, with her malice and arrogance, sneered, "What is she doing here?"

Cocometeo, his voice dripping with disdain, asked coldly, "Babicinel, what the hell are you doing here?" With her heart shattered and utterly confused, Babicinel stammered, "I came looking for you, Cocometeo. You told me you'd spend the festivities with me. Aren't we supposed to be together? Don't you love me?"

The two cruel insects laughed mockingly. Cocometeo spat out harshly, calling her a crazy girl he wanted nothing to do with. They told her to forget everything and revealed their plan to move to Coco-Italy together, never to return to Cocoland.

Devastated, Babicinel whispered, "What? This isn't true love. It doesn't work like this. True love is about caring for your partner and being there for them no matter what. It's about trust, respect, and selflessness." But Cocometeo and Levallois just laughed cruelly, retorting, "You know nothing about love. Love is just a game, a meaningless pastime!"

But Babicinel knew better. Love was everything to her—it was her reason for being, the rhythm to her heart. When Levallois and Cocometeo crushed her, her magical heart shattered into a thousand pieces, just like her spirit. Consumed by pain and despair, her light dimmed, and darkness enveloped her.

The next day, Babicinel was completely despondent and depressed. She stayed in bed for hours, not wanting to get up. Her sadness consumed her, and it seemed like nothing could pull her out of her despair.

Her sister, Cococinel, was deeply worried and did everything she could to talk to her, but Babicinel ignored her, lost in her grief. Meanwhile, Cocometeo had already left for Coco-Italy with Levallois and Levallois's younger sister, leaving Babicinel with a broken heart and an uncertain future.

Cococinel, with her boundless love, helped Babicinel through her darkest time. When Levallois and Cocometeo shattered Babicinel's magical heart, Cococinel comforted her with soothing words and a loving hug. This act of pure affection healed Babicinel's heart, making it even more vibrant. Through this, Babicinel learned that true love and strength come from the support of siblings and family, not just romantic relationships.

After this, Cococinel and Babicinel's friends organized a party by the pond. They played in the water, splashed around, and soaked up the sun. Babicinel felt true happiness and realized that true love isn't confined to romantic relationships, but is also found in friendship and with her sister. Reflecting, Babicinel said:

“I think I’ve always been surrounded by people who love and care for me. Maybe I’ve never had a boyfriend because I don’t really need one. The affection I receive from my friends and my sister is enough and truly makes me happy. I don’t belong to anyone, and I don’t want to feel like I’m waiting for someone to notice me. I know who I am, and no matter what happens, I know what I want.”

As she said this, an inspiring music played in the background, filling the air with hope and joy.
