The Dreamstone

Hi.

I was interested to know if anyone else remembers watching a cartoon called The Dreamstone in the early 90's. It was amazing, yet somehow I had forgotten all about it for almost 20 years until only recently. I was so sad when this ended and I loved it and missed it greatly but had completely forgotten all about it until just a few weeks ago when I had some vague memories about some good guy/animal called Rufus, and the antagonist was a badass massive purple dragon sitting in a throne under a mountain, who spent his time trying to steal the Dreamstone. On very rare occasions he could leave his body but he would die if he didn't get back in time. I could never remember the name of the show but now I just found it the other day - The Dreamstone - I'm so happy and am now enjoying episodes again on youtube like a big kid. :)

Cant say I do remember that one, I have done the same thing with others though. A few weeks ago I watched about 7 episodes of Bodger and Badger back to back.

It was quite dark for a kids show, but I loved it.

Perhaps this can stir some memories :)

Mind you, it was a long time ago (1990-95 apparently) and was always on CITV (I'm sure it was Tuesdays) :)

The introduction is so good. I remember it clearly now I've seen it again.

Wow. After seeing that I do remember it actually, still didn't watch it regularly but I do know what we're talking about now.
