If you lived nearby I would offer my spare 360 with all the OG style junk for $150 or something. Just sitting there go to waste. Fucking expensive hard drives and wireless adapter shit.

Well I managed to dig up the old quiz:
Hasn't changed much really. Best answer for the pop question was "thrash metal" by
lol.
Should have bought the JP va with english subs and text version! The translation of the dialogue seems kinda inconsistent to me, but what do I know about japanese!
CG stuff at the beginning was pretty cool, but then in engine became kinda framey for me and then qtes:/

lol I was only kidding. It's probably not relevant to 95% of the people that would come in here anyway.

The correct answer to any <x>-pop question is "Michael Jackson and an unabashed love of 90s bubblegum pop".

Trick question! It's actually the Simpsons episode of the last decade you dislike least.
quoted for truth.
Just finished Return of the Jedi, I had completely forgotten the second half of that film haha, not even sure I'd seen it in its entirety before.
Now onto Lord of the Rings

Pretty much anything that started between the late 80s and the late 90s covers me pretty well.

Could at least get the name of the show right if you're gonna "/win" it.
Who cares, the point is the song is playing in your head now.

Did somebody say 80s nostalgia? Just went through a browse of my DVD collection to collect a sample of some of the stuff I've managed to find on DVD...
Still a lot more than that which I'd love to have as well, though...
Don't you open that TRAP DOOR!~
Show used to creep me out.

I remember that being pretty amazing, but I was young. Does it hold up today?
Oddly enough the theme song that has burrowed into my head and has never worked its way out is from a mechinima series called "The Strangerhood" by RoosterTeeth (the RvB guys).
Speaking of catchy theme songs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VthsQVsXwEg
Sure the whole show was the same joke every episode, but I liked it.

Hmmmmm.... I have a theory about all kid's shows, or basically any show that anyone watched as a kid and enjoyed. I've found that unless you make contact with the show at least every 5-10 years and essentially "grow up" with the show, when you finally do revisit it as an adult the gulf between young you and adult you is so great that you can't help but be disappointed.
To further explain my theory: The difference in 'taste' between 10 year old me and 15 year old me was not significantly great, so when I rewatched the show at 15 I still kind of liked it. When I saw it again when I was 20 not vastly different to 15 year old me, so while it seemed hokier it was tolerable. And so and so on throughout my life. I realise the flaws and understand that it's not great but since it's only incremental, it survives through the nostalgia.
However, If 35 year old me watched after never having seen it sine I was 10? I would say no.
It's not a direct answer to you question but it's the only way I know how to honestly answer these questions about childhood shows. I've found that once 20 years has passed I'm better off not revisiting anything for fear of destroying fond memories.

I guess that depends on whether the show itself has multiple levels of enjoyment to it. As a kid I liked the Goodies for the silliness, but could appreciate the more political and philosophical things as I got older. Same with Monkey. Some shows are simpler and only work on one level, or appeal to only one demographic, or work in one cultural backdrop, and those don't age well. Stuff like Tron, Knight Rider, A-Team or You Can't Do That on Television.
