Children`s Cartoon from the late 80`s...

Ade Taylor (Mostly Harmless) posted this on Wednesday, 23rd February 2000, 12:53

I`m looking for this DVD. It`s basically the whole series of a Cartoon from the 80`s but I can`t remember it`s name for the life of me.
Oh, alright, this has got absolutely nothing to do with DVD`s, but this is DRIVING ME MAD.

The Cartoon was a space-type thing. The stars were the futuristic Texas Rangers, one of whom was a six foot horse which walked on it`s back legs and carried a massive shotgun called "Sarah-Jane".

Never one to balk at abusing a public platform - FOR GOD`S SAKE SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT IT WAS CALLED before I chew my own feet off.

Thanks

Ade

I think you imagined it.

Funny,

That`s what the people in my office said.

However.

I have another witness, and he remembers it too. Vaguely.
We may have watched it together, actually.

The Horse spoke like the guy who does the voice-overs for Bruce Willis movies and had a catchphrase - "Let me introduce you to Sarah-Jane" which he used before smearing someone over a space ranch.

I`ve got a headache.

I think you`ll find that it was called "Lonestar"

My wife is also forever in your debt, as I`ve been annoying the hell out of her for months by repeatedly shouting "Come ON - you MUST remember, it`s EASY for God`s sake" at her whenever the subject arises. I also tend to get fewer visits from my friends these days, as they`re immediately berated with six-foot talking horse questions as soon as they enter the threshold.

On the subject of forever being in my debt, as a friend of mine is fond of saying - "Once you invite him in, you are powerless to stop him".

Not that it`s got any relevance at all, just wanted to prove I had a friend who said stuff...

Now if I can just get that song title - you know, the one by thing from about 1979, the chorus went dum diddy da...dum diddy da..

How blind we`ve been...

Jace was close, very close with "Lone Star", but I`ve just run into a guy who, believe it or not, has an archive of stuff from the series...

It was called "Brave Starr" and, wait for it, the horse was called "30/30"

Once again the internet justifies it`s existence to me. It`s OK, it can stay.
