Well I would have voted SM:TV Live if it had been included.


Same here. That is the show I miss the most, even though I'm 16. Cool

The BBC always gets the credit.That might be because the only thing I can ever recall channel 3 doing was that MoM special.And all that Tiswas stuff dosen't count because that's just focusing on one.

I like Whats up DOC
SP
Steve in Pudsey
And no Parallel 9 in the list, although I don't think that would exactly trouble the scorers Wink

On The Waterfront, however, was a very underrated show.

On that list I would say Live & Kicking, but only the Andi Peters/Emma Forbes & Jamie Theakstone/Zoe Ball era, after that it dropped a bit with Emma Ledden/Steve Wilson (?), the final incarnation was abismal, even the new theme was sh*te

No SM:TV on the list I see, interesting, and no Tis-Was either!


I new about the Sat Morn TV in My Era 1993-present. Didn't put SM:TV becuase it was a show that was trying to hard to beat BBC and L&K. The only thing good about SM:TV was the hottie that presented it with Ant and Dec (Cat Deely)

Never knew about Tis-Was


SMTV won hands down after about 18 months. The ratings for SMTV rocketed, where the ratings for L&K slumped to an all time low, hence the many revamps towards the end of the run, and the eventual axing of the show. The Saturday Show (Fearne & Simon) pulled it back for the BBC and lead to the axing of SMTV.

I refuse to vote like others in this thread because SMTV was the best Saturday Morning show of all time and its not included in the list.

Has to be Live & Kicking for me, Andi & Emma, Zoe & Jamie incarnations though.
I still love the theme tune.

Greyhounds! Rolling Eyes The very first few weeks of SM:TV was ITV trying to beat the BBC but it came to nothing as the beeb could more than fight them off at that stage with L&K. Then they all started being themselves and the viewers - and awards - just came on coming. It was the longest-running Saturday morning show (L&K always had summer breaks, so SM:TV lasted a long time more in terms of episodes) and won the most awards. For it not to be included is just slightly mad. Oh and no Tiswas either. Madness.
