A Conversation for Cartoons
Put The Mysterious Cities of Gold back on BBC

I'm delighted to see BBC2 is now showing Potsworth and Company in the mornings, its a classic and i get up early everyday that its on to watch it.
I see that in the list of cartoons here you have several 80's classic, Superted, Dangermouse, Jayce An The Wheeled Warriors and The Mysterious Cities of Gold.
I would love it if BBC could show all 39 episodes of The Mysterious Cities of Gold for a few weeks as it's an amazing cartoon and a great story.
I know I'm not the only person who'd love to see the shows above back on BBC in the mornings.
So come on BBC, why are we paying our TV Licenses for if we're not getting the great cartoons that BBC has shown before and can show again...
Reply if you'd love to see one of these, especially M.C.O.G, back on our screens.
hughbob.

Damn right sister. Everyone in the universe must remember coming home from school and watching MCoG (and Fantastic Max and Bucky O'Hare, but they were substandard in comparison and I'm thinking of asking for 2p off my licence fee). It's been years and years and years since that was on and, although I hear vicious rumours that a sequel is being made (is that where they visit a second mysterious city full of gold? Or is that too stupid?), the BBC must re-run the fabulous originals soon.
I shall write to Terry Wogan. I shall write to my local MP, and start a petition. I shall start a campaign, with a single-pledge manifesto to bring the Mysterious Cities Of Gold to the televisions of the unwashed masses, and then the electorate will be falling over themselves to vote for me. So, do you see how strong the opinion is of us poor, sad peasants who can't stop watching telly? DO IT BBC! DO IT, DAMN YOU! PLEASE! BRING BACK THE MYSTERIOUS CITIES OF GOLD!!!
Ooh, feeling a little dizzy now.

Greg Dyke, are you listening? Put MCoG back on the Beeb and make us all happier people. I must remember to tape it this time...

Sing it!
I found the theme tune in a .wav file on a Uni computer's hard drive, and it opened a can of worms with my mates. It turns out everyone loved that show. And I honestly thought it was just me.

Let's have a demonstration about it! March down to White City flags held high demanding a quality series that doesn't keep recapitulating story-arcs at us! There's Mysterious Cities of Gold, Twin Peaks and that's about it!

Strangely enough, my sis got exactly the same a couple of weeks ago. When I get back from uni at Easter, we're going to have an MCOG marathon!

We really should see this series back on our screens again, although it is now widely available on DVD, thanks to fabulous films. More importantly, as 3 sequel seasons are in the process of being made in France/Japan, I believe, much like the original, it would be great to see these on the BBC too, which may well require some English language TV stations to get involved or at least show an interest in broadcasting the series, so that we may get an english translation.

IMO, there's no doubt it will get a UK release, either subbed or dubbed. Nostalgia is big business these days, and I suspect the commissioning of the new series was expedited by sales figures for the DVDs.
Also, I don't think I'm too bothered about seeing it on TV again, given how readily available the DVDs are now. I watched the last of it a couple of months ago, and was pleasantly surprised by the ending (which I'd forgotten).
