>>149163520 (OP)I was born in 1989 (and the oldest of three) and our house was always a bit late with tech, too, so uh, I dunno, we mostly just watched whatever was on, but we definitely watched Barney and its various reruns, and I know at least one of us was into Teletubbies when that came out.
I also remember Bear in the Big Blue House, and Between the Lions.
Later on, 2/3 of us (maybe all three?) had a bit of a fixation on Dragon Tales, and I remember that at that point we all did the "Brony" thing and were like "ugh, it's for babies, but it's SOOOOO GOOOD I don't care!" and tried to keep it fairly secret that we watched it.
Dunno if that was on release or if we were watching reruns though.
