I didn't realize Bananas in Pajamas was Australian (and not British) until many years after. While checking this out, I noticed several other cartoons that I probably would have liked if I had seen them. Which shows seem like this to you?

I'd say…most of them. I can only count about 4 or so good Malaysian cartoons. One of them is actually something I find interesting in concept, it's Batman..but instead of a billionaire playboy, the guy who is Batman is an inmate in an insane asylum and the criminals he faces are actually the sane ones.

Cartoon Network once ran Canadian cartoon shorts late at night as Oh Canada! in its early days. I only remember them because the Turner Classic Movies channel aired them again a few months ago.

Did any other country get Bananaman? I used to have one episode on a mixed cartoon video (and would very occasionally catch it on TV)
He originally started off in a comic called Nutty, before tranferring to The Dandy for many years, then jumped to The Beano, where he still appears.
When Man of Steel was being hyped up, the publishers registered a site called Man of Peel as a joke, implying some big budget film was in the works.

We got it here in Australia, I think it mostly got airplay because The Goodies did the voice acting, and The Goodies are only a big deal in Australia and Germany. I don't think their show was even repeated in Britain, and it took decades for the episodes to even be released on DVD because one guy at the BBC hated them, like how Dr. Who got cancelled because one guy at the BBC hated it.

Australia got Bananaman and SuperTed. Kind of fits into my timeline above that we got British cartoons during the early nineties and earlier.

This and Playschool were two of my most hated shows during my childhood. The problem is, ABC used to run them first up on TV when I came home from school during the "children's cartoons" hours, so I had to suffer through them before the good stuff would come up.

Being Ausfag, technically every fucking cartoon was foreign, except for Bananas in Pajamas, Dot And The Kangaroo, Blinky Bill, and fucking Crocadoo. Crocadoo was shit, and it's not likely to be repeated or rereleased because the lead VA got busted for screwing the kids playing his children in his sitcom.
Out of the stuff that wasn't American, Mysterious Cities Of Gold stood out. It was part of the ABC's children's programming afternoon block, The Afternoon Show, presented by James Valentine, the coolest motherfucker to ever host a kid's cartoon block. He played saxaphone, wore some big-ass shoulder pads, and never once condescended to the kids or treated them like idiots. He was like everybody's cool big brother. He had children's entertainer and arguably musician Peter Combe on and cut him off half way through a song to put a cartoon on, I sensed a little hostility there, lol.

Being a Malaysian..that's just meant I got a lot of cartoons with mixed success. I mean, I remember one channel used to air something called Phantomette? And I do recall being stung by Three Friends and Jerry. The ads made it look like it's this horror mystery thing and it doesn't help that it was then followed up by Angela Anaconda…bleh, at least Freaky Stories and Starship Troopers afterwards was a breath of fresh air.

When I was a kid I never realized or cared that Bananas in Pajamas was from somewhere else.
For the longest time I thought it was jsut some shitty recurring fever dream I'd get when I was sick, but apparently it aired in my hometown for a few years.
Most other burgers I've asked about it look at me like I'm schizophrenic when I bring it up.
