There's these animation, a village setting where a young girl tries to live right.

In one episode there's one big stomach,fat lips man that wanted to rape her...

There's also a monkey (as cast) and another guy.

I think the girl's name is Sara.

Can't remember the name of the cartoon and not even sure if it was televised on NTA. Nice cartoon anyways.

Does anyone know the title?

My papa and mama, they love each other
And when we sit at table to eat
Papa says to mama, "This food is lovely"
Mama smiles and the kids start to sing.


Lalalalala,
O it's so nice,
With Family Menu,
I learn a lot.
Lalalalala,
O it's so nice
With family menu
WE LEARN A LOT!

Gosh! Life was simple then

Beyond cartoons, NTA is no longer a TV station, they used to have qualitative programs then. Soaps? Santa Barbra, CSI, Secret of the Sand, The lady of the rose, etc.

On the children's belt you had: Flintstones, Captain caveman, Pingu, Care bears, Super Ted, Ninja turtles, Spiderman, Talespin , Seals, Dodo, Captain America, Inspector Gadget, Dino Riders, Voltron, Casper the friendly Ghost, Popeye, Dangermouse, GlobeTrotters, isht!

Nigerian TV is messed up just like the country.

Who remembers this:

The holiday movies I remember were The Scarlet Pimpernel (virtually every New Year's Eve), The Little Convict, Sandoka, Superman 3, Splash, Oliver Twist (the cartoon), The Night of A Thousand Stars, The Kid With The Broken Halo (Gary Coleman), Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom, Romancing The Stone and more recently, The Never Ending Story and The Boy Who Could Fly.

There was also a movie about an american high school footballer, named Bobby Turtle who got a magic crystal as a birthday present (at least I think it was a crystal). He rubbed the crystal and it transported him to ancient Egypt.

naptu2:
WOW! I've found it!

I've been searching for this for ages and I've written about it on this thread. It was one the the movies that the NTA usually showed during holidays in the 1980s and this is the only mention of it that I've seen on the Internet.

Bobby Turtle!

I'm trying to remember the name of a show from around this time. It was a show about wildlife and the hosts were "visitors from outer space" inside a revolving sphere, the small silhouette sometimes shown moving around the film footage. The hosts were a man and his two talking puppet companions (one of whom I think was a dog).

The two episodes I remember were about Komodo dragons and buffalo (both African and American varieties).
