  • "Kidd Video" was a strange cartoon/live action series that aired on NBC Saturday mornings from 1984-1985 (reran until 1987) that centered around a band ("Kidd Video") who were kidnapped from reality & sent into a cartoon world.. each show would feature the band trying to escape the "Flip Side" and find a portal that led back into the real world. The show was designed to cash in on the MTV craze, and each show featured an original music video at the end featuring the live action "Kidd Video" members..
    Anyway, here's a sample of the music videos that were featured on the show. Notice that one of the members is played by the kid who played "Cousin Oliver" on the "Brady Bunch"..
    The songs featured are; Video To Radio, Video Romeo, Turn Me Up, Automatic, A Little TLC, I Love Rock & Roll, You Better Run, It's Over When The Phone Stops Ringing, Where Did Our Love Go, Ending Credits

    in a way mich, this cartoon describes what happens when artists sign to labels. they go from being music artists to looking like "cartoons" of their former selves. The kidd video series was , in a way, a glimpse into what happens when an artist signs their talent away on the dotted line.

    mich , in a way, the kidd video series made a commentary on the real music scene, especially then. When artists sign their names on dotted lines, they become "cartoons". of their former selves. They go to flidside (L.A.) where they have to deal with copycats (tribute bands).
