Under Genres on the left menu, there is childrens TV
(the public information films are pretty good too)

I think a rather stiffly worded missive of complaint will be shortly making its way from New Jersey for this shocking omission.

Re: Kids TV from the UK
Is it just me, or are the theme tunes from Rhubard & Custard and Grange Hill (the original theme tune of course!) a couple of the greatest theme tunes ever!
While I was there I checked out some of the ads as well..
"The Water In Majorca....."
"I'm A Secret Lemonade Drinker...."
"It's Too Orangey For Crows, It's Just For Me And My Dog..."
Ahhhh, they do make them like that any more.
