The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Does anybody else remember the 1990's show with Timon & Pumbaa?

Never heard of it myself.  Looking on youtube I found what may be the intro of the series.

Found what sounds German to me, though I don't' understand German at all:

Yes I do :D It was one of the many programs I saw on a Belgian channel with 'Disney Break' on it.

Timon & Pumbaa was a great cartoon series. It had all the classic styles of anarchy cartoons used to have and the jokes were funny. Ahhh...<sigh> memories  :D

Yes, I remember...it does bring back a lot of memories.  However, the show wasn't my favourite mainly because of the biased opinion that I do dislike those two characters.

Another one I watched as a child. In retrospect, it's not so good, but I enjoyed it at the time.

Yeah, I prefer the lions over Timon and Pumbaa.

If I were to give the comic relief characters of TLK a spinoff, I would've given one to the hyenas personally  :DD

I remember seeing this show in the late 90's on the disney channel, and then it was taken off, but I saw it again on "Toon Disney" (a channel we never got) while we were staying at a hotel on July 13 and 14, 2002 (we were on vacation in Eastern WA...I remember one episode I saw was the twister one).

Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of the main characters. And the series gets a little too silly sometimes. But it's almost as much of a classic TV series as LK was as a movie, and brings on a little  nostalgia even. That doesn't make it good or anything, but it does make it better thant LK 1.5--- :x)

I really liked when the hyenas got their own episodes. Like brekclub said, I would have given the spinoff to them. They are my favorite characters in animation right now outside of LBT, and since you guys here's a secret: I wrote on wikipedia that they'd be getting their own show in 2018! I'm sorry, I like the idea and the characters too much!
