I remember watching my young sister watch this show and she never picked up on even one of the foul tirades that Agro came out with.

I hate to raise the spectre of Constable Dave, here, but he was the friendly face of policing for Brissy kids and actually came to my school to deliver a "stranger-danger" talk to us. David Moore let us all down. Including Jamie Dunn (Agro).

The show was called Cartoon Connection. Kids would watch the show in the morning. The show lasted for 2 hours. Agro and his co-host had 3 or 4 10 minute segments. Intro's to cartoons were within the last 30 seconds of the segment. Most of what you saw did make to the screen. Aussies kids loved it, plus the kids already heard a lot of it from their own family members.

Hahaha, never missed Agro's shows as a kid. Loved it 😂

It definitely was our morning children tv! You would be surprised how much got thru to live air because being (80s) gen x and y kids, our parents were already at work and we had to get ourselves to school. Agro did swear and many of these types of scenes were definitely seen by us kids. I remember like crystal clarity . It was awesome and we would talk about it at school!

I would love you to react to Fast Forward - in particular Lynne & Carmel - absolutely hilarious. Both these actors went on to be in Kath & Kym.

Now you can see where Australians got there warped and somewhat dirty sense of humour 😂 this is what they raised us on!

It was a children's show of a weekday, I used to watch it before going to school. Even though this was out takes, what made it onto TV was on the edge.

Yeah you're right Matt, these are out takes from Agro & Anne-Marie hosting a kids afternoon cartoon show. The really rude stuff wasn't shown on the actual kid's show, they were saved for an adult late night show. The guy operating Agro (Jamie 'something' was incredibly funny & quick) and he would rile up his co-hosts terribly & it was hilarious. Agro was also aggressive/narky in the daily kids arvo show too...but the X rated stuff never went to air. A lot of it was done live though & often riske.

This is a collection of bloopers that would have been used for the "Christmas Tape". Each year at the Channel 7 Brisbane Christmas party for the talent and crew, the editors would create a tape of bloopers to play. This came from one of those tapes. The show, Agros Cartoon Connection, was filmed in Brisbane and was basically just educational segments, promos for toys and funny skits which were played in between cartoons like TMNT. The show aired at 6am every weekday morning. The show was very much a G-rated children's show, and didn't have anything rude like this video shows, but the crew during filming had a tendency to muck around a lot, like you saw in the clips :P

Many of the tv stations in Australia would do what were called "goof tapes" that were played at work Christmas parties and a lot of this type of footage was never meant for public viewing. Agro was also on Wombat. Both these shows originated in Brisbane, Queensland. Ann-Maree actually started in another kids' tv show in regional Queensland (SEQ), Scruffy the Dog Show (somehow that has slipped from her resume). The most outrageous goof tape I ever saw was one from Play School (absolutely hilarious). Brisbane had lots of unique children's shows, including Boris the Black Knight on the 1980/90ss. There was also Shirl's Neighbourhood where kids sent in their used bandaids.

Argos cartoon connection This was in the morning between the cartoons …would go over the kids heads but the parents definitely got the dirty jokes 🤣

The thing is Ranger Stacey has lasted through so many different kids programs. She's on totally wild which she became the lead but before that she was on all the channels educating kids.

Yes - it WAS children's TV. Used to be on in the mornings. It used to go for a couple of hours and these segments were screened between cartoon shows like (say)Scooby Doo. There were lots of puppet-type characters on Aussie kids TV back then. Winky Dink, Ossie Ostrich and (until Agro came along) the rudest was probably Rock Wallaby (a bit like Basil Brush).

Used to love this show as a kid it was awesome!! Now it's still awesome because of these clips I didn't understand back then. I remember they came to Bribie island for something live and I got to go see it. It was funny because they said that agro liked eating cockroaches and stone's so the other kids in my street and my self were all collecting both. I took him a bag of rock I got off the side of the road 😊. Great memories back then. 🙂 Glad you got to watch this mate 👍🇦🇺

Loved this show as a kid. Most of these were outtakes, but a lot what that went to air would make most people’s heads explode today, it wouldn’t last 5 seconds on TV

Yes Children's TV cartoons, stories, products, guests, made in Queensland! This must be outtakes, surely! 🧐 Very clever man! 😄👍

Agro is Australias answer to Basil brush and I love them both. The very best was when they were showing the kids how a sausage making machine works. I will never forget how hard I laughed. I actually fell out of my chair laughing aver Agro's comments.

Jamie Dunn is an absolute legend I used to see him every morning at the BP Caboolture Southbound and he always said hello it was like relieving my childhood over again

Agro is very much loved here in Australia, used to put tv show on for kids but I would sit and watch it just to see what Agro did that day. It was an Australian morning kids show with cartoons etc but I can just about guarantee more adults were watching it then their kids because of the things Agro would say or do to the hosts/ guests. Was the BEST show, no complaints no politically correct crap like now, just good old fashioned fun and laughter!

For our non-Australian friends. Agro was the puppet character on a kids TV show called 'Agros Cartoon Connection' that ran for 2-3hrs on weekday mornings. The clips are outtakes. Here is one for most people as it isn't widely known - the Agro puppet is a vintage 1978 Fisher-Price puppet of Animal from the Muppets. Agro is Animal Aussie cousin.

I grew up watching this everyday, it wasn't an adults TV show but looking back at it, it definitely was innocent humour of the time back then.

These shows were listed as childrens TV but it really a blessing to Adults to watch TV with the kids (who did not pick up on the show). Great stuff.

Every morning before school, Aggo got you in a good mood. Anne Marie was the best host but I think she eventually reached her limit with it 😂

Agro's Cartoon Connection was a kid's TV show. They showed cartoons and reviewed all the latest toys. Agro was always cheeky and very naughty on the kid's show so of course, the kids loved him. Every now and then Jamie Dunn (Agros alter ego) couldn't restrain himself, and he would let fly with some very adult comments and jokes. He was a very funny man with a wicked sense of humor. Poor Ann-Maree would be the victim so she was constantly thumping Agro and Jamie. Thank heavens for pre-recorded TV. None of the Adult stuff went to air in the kid's time slot. It was all saved and was shown at an appropriate adult time slot and advertised as adult content. Like the collection of clips, you are watching now.

This was a kids show. Argo was a funny, cranky puppet. The humour was great and he had a way of making jokes that adults and kids would laugh at for different reasons. Very clever. This particular clip you are showing, was the out takes and would never have been aired. I’m so glad I got to see this.

I grew up on this every weekend in Australia. So many fond memories and in a time when you could take the piss out of everything without a care in the world.

These shows were aired on Saturday morning. In between the episodes of mayhem in the studio, they aired cartoons.The audience was a combination of kids, who didn't get a lot of the jokes but enjoyed the vibe, but were really there for the cartoons, and young people who were still awake and coming down after a loooooong Friday night out clubbing etc. Parents rarely saw this stuff, and no one much complained. It is surprising how much of this stuff actually made it to air.

Yeah those were out-takes. It was called Agro's cartoon connection. The nostalgia. I remember looking forward to that show as a kid, and I watched it religiously every morning. It's a historical kids show from the 80's.

The gentleman is Jamie Dunn, a close friend to the film and TV production in Brisbane and one of the warmest hearts you'll find in Australia. Jamie, while at a radio gig would get together with his team to promote the Royal Children's Hospital in Brisbane. He and his team have raised millions of dollars for one of the most important hospitals in the Southern Hemisphere as it services the largest land mass including Papua and island territories surrounding Australia. He's a great Aussie larrakin, one of our finest, Paul Hogan etc...

He started on a children's weekday afternoon show called Wombat and then went to Saturday morning cartoons with Agro's Cartoon Connection. Yes, he really did say a lot of sketchy stuff which earned him a lot of slaps from Anne-marie

This was a show for kids that had cartoons and things that might interest them, like new toys that were released or the Rangers that brought native animals or pets in....... but it was always only slightly cut before it went to air. Like the swearing never made it, but stuff that did was still hysterical, also Agro was very happy to keep reminding people he was a puppet with a rubber ball for a nose and arms he couldn't move. He was always getting attacked by various animals like the dog!!! You've gotta remember he's a hand puppet on the arm of a dude who was under the desk & couldn't see shit!!!!!! Kids loved it, but we adults loved it more & the best part was they'd do live appearances to kids audience's. So if it went pear shaped....................🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍

Shown on weekday mornings, it was primarily hosted by Agro, a puppet played by comedian Jamie Dunn. It was all on TV but clever enough to go over all the kids heads , but not the Adults.

I was a teen when this was on and thankfully mum wasn't home, still makes me laugh today. 🤣Plus Dickie & Ozzie on Hey Hey It's Saturday, which was around the same time. The F bomb did NOT get on air.

Hey Hey it's Saturday!!!! More Iconic Puppets & innuendoes, the whole cast are Ozzie Icons & Stars were launched from this Saturday Night Family Affair. Good full blown Ozzie humour & never to happen again, because "it's too offensive", just as the same demise as Agro's Cartoon Connection...... Thanks for sharing every fantastic memory of every kids memory from that era of Agro aka Jamie Dunn, Cheers 🍻

Yes, this was Saturday morning tv back in the day 😆😆😆

I loved watching Agro. Hungry Jacks released agro coffee mugs because he was so popular. It reminds me of John on Playschool back in the day…… the kids never picked up on his adult directed jokes either!! Australian television used to be so fun to watch!
