Agro's Cartoon Connection - Celebrity/pop-culture references and in-jokes

Some of these are obviously dated to the period...
Clips are from a handful of episodes in 1991.
Agro's Cartoon Connection ran from 1990 to 1997 on Channel 7 in Australia. The show was filmed in Brisbane until 1997. In 1997 filming was re-located to Sydney. Ann-Maree Biggar left the show at the end of 1994 and was replaced by Terasa Livingstone for 1995 onward. The puppeteer and voice of Agro is Jamie Dunn.
A big thank you to PertSnergleman and TheGraymaverick, legends who digitised their old TV recordings.

I’m so glad I found Animal’s higher functioning Cousin

[@ColdChiselFan93]

This Ann-Maree woman is a rather funny woman haha. For some reason I seem to recall when I was living in Australia at the time the kids in the neighborhood would talk about agro all the time.

[@theshowcalledonair1072]

We had nothing even close to this in the states. Even as an adult it's so funny.

[@2000Ajjet]

Ann Marie was ditzy as hell but so adorable...

[@jadethom7908]

Ann-Maree deserved an Order of Australia for the amount of shit she endured on that show. Absolute trooper, no question. I still reckon Agro should have been Prime Minister.

He would have fit right in.
