Recently picked up the old zook-kit off of a friend, and I can safely say that I bloody well wish this show was still around. It's like RobotWars but CGI, and bloody glorious.
Bamzooki ... that was the name of that show. It has been annoying me for a while that i couldn't remember the name. Thank you youtube for finding it for me
Now looking back on this as an adult, one thing that really hits different is realising how young the presenters actually were back then. Crazy how Jake was probably younger in that episode than we are now.
Hear me out... Bamzooki, The Crust, Desperados, Tracy Beaker, 50/50 and so many more great shows all have been replaced with aliens and robots and unfunny sitcoms. CBBC have lost their touch. Bring back the classics please... 😭
Shit I used to watch this show all the time! So uploaded , if you were on the show what were you actually looking at when the games were being played? Always wanted to know.
This took me back 🤣 I remember my brother putting this on after school and we went straight to the web site too see if we could play the game on the computer but we ended up deleting all my dads work stuff and we got grounded but what a time that was
+Michael Hayward The table had a top-down view of the zooks projected onto it, so we could pretty much make out what was going on. It was rendered in 3D live too, because family in the green room were able to watch each round as it happened.
Oh, I think I watched this one aswell. I also remember taping it. I too use to be a fan of this show (which explains my username lol), heck, I also tried to join the show but for some reason I couldn't cause I didn't know how to. lol now I'm no longer a fan, but its nice to see one episode of it that I use to watch from the same person who's in it. lol
Your brother, I think it's your brother, at 3:02 sounds like such a shill Also I can't help but think that some of the cheering during the actual game rounds was edited in, perhapsit wasn't cringy enough. Dude you were living my dream, even though I'm 16 now I still think it's pretty cool concept for a kids' game show.
Haha, he’s not my brother, was just a friend. The cheering definitely wasn’t added in - we were told that the louder we cheered, the better out Zooks would do, adjusted for however many of us there were in the team. I suspect that was a convenient lie to get us to cheer really loudly though!
I downloaded Bamzooki zook kit on my old computer when I was a kid and made like 300 zooks. Computer broke, lost them all, considered suicide.
I could never make the.m...
momus scythe I still have it.....
LuLzMrTom YES
I had around 300 when I was a kid.......Not a single one of them could move properly.
Well you're still here aye
No, we could actually see the zooks on the table, but it was projected flat onto it rather than being 3D.
We need a nostalgia day on cbbc where all the old AMAZING shows will be on
+Dizzynoodlegamer I would lose my Shit big time
that is the best idea iv hurd all week! GET THIS PERSON A PROMOTION!
bamzooki was the shit back in the day
One time, I took about 5 pills and was absolutely twisted. I saw one of these creatures crawling along the floor. Was a good day.
man where did these shows go like raven and bamzooki....
I was literally just telling tommy younger brother about how I would watch this show all the time as a kid. One of many childhood favourites.
Dick and dom!? Get your own back!? Used to love 90s and early 2000 cbbc
I met the guy from raven, proper cool fella.
this is *R E A L* esports
I could never work out how they did this program
I imagine the teams looked at monitors where the challenges were projected, which was super-imposed onto the table in post-production
I used to think that the zooks were real and that you could pick them up xD
they are real
ring ring here comes dat boi
Yeah me too! 😂
Dont ruin the dream!
dat boi Me too 😆
Jesus, that nostalgia...
Nope, it was all projected onto the table. We could see flat, 2D representations of where they were, so we could see kind of how it was going.
"cringe" What're you on about, you were living my dream
Recently picked up the old zook-kit off of a friend, and I can safely say that I bloody well wish this show was still around. It's like RobotWars but CGI, and bloody glorious.
Also... this music, that dirty bassline
Bamzooki ... that was the name of that show. It has been annoying me for a while that i couldn't remember the name. Thank you youtube for finding it for me
Spent ages trying to remember this show from childhood...
every kid in this show is now in their late twenties/thirties... where did all the time go.
Bring back BAMZOOKi!
feel like pure shit just want bamzooki back
OH MY GEWWD! i miss this show sooooooooo much! it was one of my favorites at the time!i was only like 4 or 5! god i wish it would come back on!
This episode is from 2005 because the red nose in the top left is the one from 2005
Doctorwhoman186 I remember having one of those
I always wondered how they did it
I remember there was a game where you could design your own bamzooki! Man, nostalgia...
Loved this programme!
I used to watch bamzooki , mona the vampire and Christopher Ecclestan who was on doctor who in 2005 so many memories !
I remembered this show the other day, this and Raven were a big part of my childhood. I always wanted to enter but I never knew how to.
So many years ago. Loved watching this. I still remember this now and I'm glad to still remember it
I never realised it was so fixed haha
Now looking back on this as an adult, one thing that really hits different is realising how young the presenters actually were back then. Crazy how Jake was probably younger in that episode than we are now.
"Rocky was rock hard there" - Bamzooki-innuendo
Brings back lots of memories! I loved this show :)
Lmfao so lucky to have internet back in 2005 lmfaooo
woah rebels, fucking step back
Such a deep, buried memory...
The one show I would enjoy after school
+Super Scarlet Speeder (SSS) Same here, just only thought to type it into TH-cam's search engine
I can't believe how long ago this was
"Deus Vult!"
- Football Crazy, 2005.
Omg I was about 8 years old when I watched this. Brilliant show 👌🏻
cant get enough of this show
Many memories from a child
I Absolutely loved this show
Still embarrassed about the fact that eight year olds can play this game, but I am yet to make my thing walk. Any pointers on the motion paths?
i used to watch bamzooki wen i was bout 3 yrs old and i still remember it where have all the good shows gone now
This show was the bomb, I'd literally of sold my soul to be on here
No, later. I think it was 2005 that it was broadcast. We recorded it in the October of 2004 and it was broadcast in March 2005.
Hear me out...
Bamzooki, The Crust, Desperados, Tracy Beaker, 50/50 and so many more great shows all have been replaced with aliens and robots and unfunny sitcoms. CBBC have lost their touch. Bring back the classics please... 😭
HusSainTee I miss the Crust.
EriksAngelKeri And Kerching!
HusSainTee I'm just glad I no longer have to watch it :P
Ikr?! Cbbc have gone so crap all they have nowadays is educational shit
The only good recent show was Horrible Histories... (which was based on really good books)
Shit I used to watch this show all the time! So uploaded , if you were on the show what were you actually looking at when the games were being played? Always wanted to know.
Ah, the massive table had the Zooks projected onto it from above, but obviously it was just a flat image. We could see what was going on, just about.
+Rhys Morgan who were you
The one called Rhys
This was 2005, as the credits show "MMV".
Fantastic, we've got a great team of zooks!
Woah Forr3ster love your vids man, crazy seeing you here! Keep up the awesome work dude!!
PlatypusPower89 nice pit people OST playlist btw, great tunes
What was the lad at the begining called presenting cant put the name to fave x
An insane throwback!
I bloody remember this series, and I love it that much.
man i miss this show :(
Retro overload.
Best kids show ever!
I miss this show from my childhood, it was like a more kid friendly version of robot wars, such great memories
Omg, I used to love this show :D
This took me back 🤣 I remember my brother putting this on after school and we went straight to the web site too see if we could play the game on the computer but we ended up deleting all my dads work stuff and we got grounded but what a time that was
I used to live bamzooki I even made my own on the cbbc game so many Memories
Well it would have to be 2004, 2005 or 2006, because BamZOOKi only started in 2004, and the CBBC revamp was in 2007.
This show bring so many memories. Oh the zooks I used to build. Good times...
When CBBC was awesome and had this version of bamzooki, jungle run, my parents are aliens and raven. What the hell happened?
Jungle Run and My Parents Are Aliens were on CITV 😉
Rhys Morgan either way at least tv was awesome
Jungle Run was CITV as well. Oof
What did they actually have on the table? Like what could the teams see?
I remember making my own back in the day the challenge was having a computer that could run it
Fuck crysis, can it run the bamzooki zook kit?
00's CBBC shows were pure flames 🔥
Also Jake Humphrey has aged really well over the years honestly
I remember watching this years ago. but how are the zooks controlled, why does flame just fuck up in the first one?
I think there's a crew of computer guys who would control it
no, its just got a path-finder and the zooks cant always follow it due to turning speed or if they get caught. :3
"Rocky was rock hard there!" I thought this was a kids TV show not porn!
can anyone suggest any good videos of making a zook, that uses the new software, thanks
Oh god. This was the first episode of Bamzooki I ever watched. I'm having a massive nostalgia attack right now.
Hi and now it's 2022
Let me introduce you to:
*DAKALAK*
*FLAME*
*FOUR LEGGED FREAK*
AND william wallace
A very creative show ! It reminds me of an old game SPORE.
Fantastic show!
Haha I used to love this!
I remember watching this when it first aired. Very vaguely.
Ah! It says (C) MMV at the end of the programme credits. That's how to always know the year of a programme. 2005.
i dont know if this is still on in uk tell me plz
Know a link where i can download a zook kit?
you just earned urself a subscriber
This was a great show, I loved the creatures you could make; if I could download the maker I would so use it.
piplup229 bamzooki-sr.software.informer.com ;D
you can
I used to love this show! (Street Rules was my favorite)
So what? 2 teams screaming at a table or was there a screen showing the 'action'?
+Michael Hayward The table had a top-down view of the zooks projected onto it, so we could pretty much make out what was going on. It was rendered in 3D live too, because family in the green room were able to watch each round as it happened.
+Rhys Morgan this show is strange
God damn this is incredible, i wish i could've been you
So many memories omg!
How did thos work? What were you actually looking at.
Was I fuckin high back then?! Watching this 20 years later got me twisted 😭
Dan Bull? Is that you?
I miss this show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh gosh
I played BAMZOOKi with my dad,
I was something like 5 or 6.
He always won though.
Good times
I'd totally forgot about this show.
Oh, I think I watched this one aswell. I also remember taping it. I too use to be a fan of this show (which explains my username lol), heck, I also tried to join the show but for some reason I couldn't cause I didn't know how to. lol now I'm no longer a fan, but its nice to see one episode of it that I use to watch from the same person who's in it. lol
This show and Raven were the best! Children's television just isn't good any more.
Hivedrops People who grew up on captain pug wash would’ve said the same about this and kids of today will be saying the same
dont forget trapped
I need to know HOW they filmed this
When I was a kid, Jake Humphrey used to present all the shows I liked. Things really dont change lol
this used to be my favourite show
this is the old bamzooki and i fucking love it it's a shame they don't show it any more
Your brother, I think it's your brother, at 3:02 sounds like such a shill
Also I can't help but think that some of the cheering during the actual game rounds was edited in, perhapsit wasn't cringy enough. Dude you were living my dream, even though I'm 16 now I still think it's pretty cool concept for a kids' game show.
Haha, he’s not my brother, was just a friend.
The cheering definitely wasn’t added in - we were told that the louder we cheered, the better out Zooks would do, adjusted for however many of us there were in the team. I suspect that was a convenient lie to get us to cheer really loudly though!
do you still speak to these people
Rocky was my favourite out of all of them
What is this and why do I remember it
Your team got absolutely SMOKED!
I have just discovered this from a deep, hidden part of my brain
Do you have the whole series if BAMZOOKi Street Rules?
