      Now the voice followed him. Carlo Bonomi who also voiced all of Pingu for several seasons died.
      "during its first four seasons produced between 1990 and 2000, where Bonomi voiced all the characters without a script. His grammelot was originally intended to be a parody of the Milanese dialect, and it was inspired by three abstract languages traditionally used by clowns in France and Italy."

    OMG! I haven't seen this cartoon in almost 30 years! I used to live in a town northwest of Novi, Michigan, which is just outside of Detroit. Back then, the 1980s, we were able to pick up the tv stations over in Ontario, Canada. Channel 9 was crystal clear and a few others were marginal, but could be picked up with an outdoor antenna, which is what we had (sorry, no cable tv). If I recall, channel 9 aired a cartoon block that featured La Linea, Pink Panther, the Inspector (Clouseau), Babar and the Raccoons on Friday or Saturday evening.

      @@KristopherLamont Yes, I do. I used to live in Walled Lake, near North Pontiac Trail and Welch Rd in the 1980's. Back then, Channel 2 was a CBS affiliate, channel 4 WDIV (NBC) still, Channel 7 WXYZ-TV (ABC) still, channel 9 TV Ontario (CBC), 20 was a FOX affiliate, 32 and 54 were Ontario, too. Channel 50 WKBD (FOX) and 56 was a PBS affiliate; I don't remember the callsign for 56.
      Most of those stations went off air before midnight, but some stayed on until 2am, before shutting down for the night. Of course, Saturday mornings, I'd awake around 5 or 5:30 to watch some stations come back on air, with the test pattern on screen. 😁

      I had one where Benny Hill played a wino and danced with a girl who came out of a poster.
      The song. It stuck in there 35 years until I heard it on Man on Wire, a doc about the guy who tightrope walked on the WTC in 1974. The photo was of him sitting on the WTC roof.
      To the tune of Eric Satie: Gymnopedie.
      I almost fell off my chair frantic to find it in the credits. Something I thought was lost forever.

    I remember watching this as a child in my grand parents house. This character used to crack me up laughing. .Now here I am with kids on my own. I showed it to them and one took to it and is as amused as I was and still am

    i rememebr around 2016 i went to my online friend's house for the first time and this was playing on the tv, i was interested in it (mainly because there was nothing to do) and for years i couldn't figure out the name for the life of mine and i knew it began with "la" but i found it after coming from "la luna" which was a pixar short film, really lovely series
