description: Experiences while re-watching "The Animals Of Farthing Wood"
---
Just a quick… note?
I was surprised to find a DVD of the Animals Of Farthing Wood (German: "Als die Tiere den Wald verließen")
in the library.
I knew I watched this… "cartoon" (? Saying cartoon feels almost "too cheap") as a child. So I was quite happy
about it. I've been re-watching this, I think, the first time in around 30 years.
(And I'm not quite finished yet).
I expected kind of nostalgia. What did I get? [1]<br/>
I feel kinda… surprised that I remember *absolutely nothing* from the plot.
I mean, sure, the animals were leaving their original home due to human destruction.
I remembered at least one of the main characters. But apart from that?
Nothing "rung a bell". I didn't remember *any* episode.
So it's not like refreshing memories, but it's more like watching this for the first time.
And also, maybe this is because "I'm an adult now", but, oh boy, this series is *dark*.
Oh, and also: I was kinda also hoping to hear the German intro (or was in the outro?) song again,
["Gib Niemals Auf"](https://yewtu.be/watch?v=lqypNpCOdWE) by "Corinna and Dirk".
But for some reason (copyright / legal stuff maybe?) both the beginning
and the ending only have the instrumental part. Which is a bit of a pity.
So yeah, that's all, just this.
[1] Tears!
