I showed a German friend of mine a Mr Blobby video years ago and without hesitation she asked me if we hated our children because she couldn't believe that it was meant to be a kids mascot.

You are correct though that Saturday evening TV has always been shit.

He was on a Big Fat Quiz one year and, at first, I thought it was just a bit, that there was no way that was a real thing for kids, but then I remembered that we had Barney the Dinosaur, so yeah.

Mr Blobby was meant to be a parody of a kid's mascot - as annoying, vaguely terrifying, and bizarre as possible but still recognisable as something you might see on a kid's show. It was a joke that got lost because he fit in a bit too well with the already existing mascots!

Mr Blobby is a legend. You Brits are lucky you had him.

Why does Mr. Blobby remind me of Liza Minnelli?

The eyelashes and the grin.

Baffling that you Brits made this a #1 hit song.

Challenge Anneka used to be on Saturdays! That was amazing. I can hear the theme tune in my head now.

Also Big Break, Casualty, Dad's Army, Generation Game...

And Doctor Who, in the good old days...

Before Moffat and Chibnall broke the show with the wank-fetish material.

Nu!Who has always been shit, don't delude yourself.

Big Break? Challenge Anneka? Brucie's Generation Game... I feel like this only strengthens the OP's point.

Nah, House Party was great, Mr Blobby was just a joke that went on for too long =_= I was a kid at the time and I hated him.
