Subject: Does anyone remember The Get Along Gang?

From Wikipedia

The Get Along Gang were characters created in 1984 by American Greetings' toy design and licensing division, Those Characters from Cleveland (now American Greetings Properties), for a series of greeting cards. The Get Along Gang was a group of twelve (and later, fourteen) pre-adolescent anthropomorphic animal characters in the fictional town of Green Meadow, who had formed a club that met in an abandoned caboose and who had various adventures whose upbeat stories tended to stress the importance of subsumption of one's own desires and compliance. The success of the greeting card line led to a Saturday morning television series, which aired on CBS for one season, from 1984 until 1985. The time slot was replaced by Disney's The Wuzzles.

Each of the characters had obvious faults, which they learned to overcome with the aid of their friends. For instance, the group's leader, Montgomery Moose, was quite clumsy, and tended to get his antlers caught in certain objects, such as tree branches; Woolma Lamb was extremely vain, and Dotty Dog was very careless.

I remember it yes, but memories are sketchy as I haven't seen it since it went off the air in 1985.  I would love to see it again, if they ever put it on DVD or atleast showed repeats, which I doubt will happen :(

Its theme tune is definitely one of the best from the 80s! I'd be interested in a dvd release too as it wasn't on for long back in the day.

I remember this one from my childhood, but I haven't seen "The Get Along Gang" anywhere in over 20 years.
