The most memorable images of the NTV back in the days were the cartoon that used to come right before the Baal Karyakram (Kids Show). Remember the cartoon that showed toons wearing all kinds of Neplease dresses representing different casts and visiting around kathmandu and dancing. I still remember the music of that cartoon. And I also remember the program in that baal karyakram about how to draw. Actually this program inspired me to be an artist. Because of this program i end up taking part in various art competition in my school days.  

I remember Gillet World Sports which used to come right after the saturday movie. And i forget the name but there used to be a Japanese Kids show translated in Nepali which used to teach various ways to build a paper toys.  And as Khairey stated, I rember that Nepali si-fi film too. It really captured my imagination. To bad no one followed up with that and we end up watching all kind of crappy stuff these days. 

Serials like Chature ko Dau Page, Biman Chalak, I forget the name but there was one serial made by Tulsi Ghimire which featured Niruta Singh, Chakrabue (Juthe played by Ashok Sharma was the most memorable) and programs like Bishwo Ghatna, Aayam, Sunday Pop, were very interesting. 

Does any one remembers there used to be a show called Yo Jadu Hoina ?Not to forget, my best part of growing up was watching Twakka-Tukka. I still remember that jock about Ramprasad ji getting hit by Narayan Tripathi on his talu :D. And another jock in which Ratan Subedi puts surti in his eye instead of his mouth. Not to mention the everlasting Ramayan and Mahabharat.
