Hi there. With all of our talks of the falling baker, the cartoon pinball machine, the cartoon circus tamer and the number painter, let's have a talk of the counting series with the race cars and the spies. They're very old and are so similar to the pinball machine, but they taught us to count to 10. They feature the race cars in the beginning and the spies at the end that open their coats to reveal the numbers 1-10. The voice off-screen that sang the numbers was Grace Slick of the Jefferson Planes, but nobody beleives that she sang the numbers on the series. My memories of these series was that I watched "3", "4", "6", "9" and "10" on the 1987-90 shows and "8" on the Hebrew Sesame show on tape when I was in preschool. Now, I watched "2" on the premiere and on #536, and I can watch it many times any Friday on Retromedia.tv!
Anybody remember these old and classic counting cartoon series from the early days with the race cars and the spies?
