So randomly on my YouTube feed I saw some clips of a show called Tales from Moominvalley I think it's called. Now for some reason I SWEAR I saw some of it as a kid. I remember the ghost hippo things and the guy with the pointy hat. The thing is SUPPOSEDLY IT NEVER AIRED IN THE U.S. It is a Finnish/Japanese show.

From the clips I've seen it seems like a pretty chill show (compared to a lot of the modern spazz fest kids shows), and I like the green hat guy's (Snufkin) kinda chill, yet snarky deadpan demeanor.

I kind of get the vibes similar to The Hobbit animated movie also. (1977) I know I'm not mixing the two up because my Dad read the book to me as a kid and I remember that Bilbo had hairy feet and the curly hair.^_^

The thing is that I was a kid in the 90's. YouTube came out when I was in high school and we had just a family computer with 56k dial up internet prior to that, so I know I didn't see it online.

It's just so weird because I could swear I've seen it eons ago but supposedly from what I've looked up, it wasn't on TV in the states.

 

Has anyone else here in the US seen this as a kid? I feel like I'm going crazy or something. I definitely remember that pointy green hat Snufkin character. Speaking of 90's- this is like Unsolved Mysteries going on here!:laugh:

I've never seen in but when I saw the picture the first thing I thought of was Over the Garden Wall. Maybe that's what you're thinking of?

I can see what you mean with the hat. That show is way too new though. 2014 from what I looked up. This moomin show came out in 1990 and it definitely would have been in the 90's when I saw it.
