The Gingerbread Man

I was thinking back the other day when i remembered this delightful show after hearing some words spoken on TV which resembled the theme tune. I automatically began singing 'hey hey I'm the ginger the ginger the ginger ginger ginger...' when i realised i had an old tape lying around so i sat down for an hour and watched the whole thing and i was reminded of how great the old children's shows were. If only todays kids got to see shows like this perhaps they would be less violent. This is a very well made children's stop motion animation and i think shows like this should air present day so todays children can enjoy it the way i did. A beautiful children's show 8/10.

I bought this for My Son when He was a toddler. It was on VHS, but luckily I was able to purchase two DVD's recently. He is ten now, but He still loves the shows like this that our generation considered 'Classics'.

I really wish that they had made more episodes of the Gingerbread man. It was extremely creative, without the need for violence or pointless, subtle crudeness that seems to pop into the more modern shows when it isn't needed! I think people would be surprised to learn how many of the younger generation actually love light-hearted shows like the Gingerbread man. It also reveals how close people used to be and the importance of friendship.
