My big question: Seems everyone's interested in the "Menudo" intro, but I prefer (and saw it on Nick) the other. Anyone have a link to that intro without all the watermarks, and full?

YAY for Spartakus and the sun beneath the sea!
I remember this show well, watching it when I was a kid...
I have uploaded for you:
The pirate song - English
Flashbic - English and French
!!
Enjoy

I finally found a good Menudo TV Intro.

In fact, I have the lyrics in spanish because that's the language in which it was broadcasted in Latin America:
"Tú niño de la tierra, escúchame
tu que has conocido nuestro ayer
se está apagando tera nuestro sol
ven hacia Arkadia, síguenos...
Cruzando estratos con Rebecca y Max
por mundos extraños sin temor
únete a Arkana llegas hasta el final
mi tierra hay que salvar..
Con Espartaco voy, hacia el sol bajo el mar
mundo azul que se sumergió, buscaré tu verdad
Arcoiris de Arkadia, con su luz me guiará"
Maybe sounds silly but is one of the best memories of my childhood, running out of school to get home on time and watch it...xD

I downloaded it in full dvd, is one of my crown jewels along with The Thundercats!

I too, remember wathcing this show in the wee-hours of the moorning. Or at least that is what it seemed like, I was only 5 or 6 at the time. Love this site

Good Lord I had forgotten about this show! I shouldn't be old enough to be this nostalgic yet!

I have all but 10 episodes of this series on ENGLISH DVDS!

The other Opening theme versions lyrics:
Before you came we only had a dream
the sea.
You hold the key unluck the past
you have the power to guide our path
step by step we will be strong until the sun is seen by all
Before you came we only had a dream
breathing deeply burning brightly like the sun beneath!
Spartakus!

If anyone has the Lyrics to Bic and Bak, I would appreciate if they wrote them down here.
Thanks!

I've grown addicted to this show. I remember I saw one or two episodes on Nickelodeon back in the day. I like the original theme, but I am DYING to hear the Menudo theme. And I'm also dying to see the English ending credits! I've found three episodes of the English up on YouTube, though (the entire French series is up there as well, but I don't understand much of what's going on, though I think I ran into those two episodes I saw on Nick . . . .) I took two years of high school French, but hardly anything sunk in.

I have a funny memory of Spartakus. My sister and I were in our parents bedroom one night in summer of 1986 or 1987, I forget which (I was either four or five, depending on the year. Sis was either five or six). Spartakus had ended, and someone in the Nickelodeon HQ hit the wrong button I guess, because the ending credits kept starting over. I guess I'd better explain that a little. See, when the first "slide" of the ending credits started, instead of going to the next "slide," it started over. I think this happened about three or four times before they got through the credits.

One thing that puzzles me about the show still . . . . Bic and Bac, the little yellow anteater thingamabobs, or whatever they are. Actually two things that bug me. Which one is which, and is one a boy and the other a girl, or what?!

I watched this show as a child, but I remember the theme song was a bit more sprightly and sung by Menudo.

Heyheyheeey!! FINALLY!!
Someone who has been wishing for a subbed torrent on this show? I reasonly found it on DVD in Norway (!!!)
I love this show, but my french sucks, so I was quite euphoric when I found it.
Since this DVD is with French audio and only Norwegian subs, I have to rewrite it all, every single episode to english.
This is no problem, but I don`t have any idea what program to use.
Anyone who can tips me? I need a simple program to make hard subs to dvd-files.

I loved this show, I'd forgotten the name of it, and only remembered the look of the characters. I'm glad I found it again.

i used to love watching this show. when ever i tried to explain it to anyone they thought i was dreaming. I would love to find a copy of this and watch it again as i was pretty young when i saw it. i have searched the net for it but can only find it french. If anyone does find it please please let me know

I used to watch Spartakus and the Sun Beneath the Sea with my family when I was little.

I have to see this again. But it is impossible to get subtitles for it. The DVD is only in french! Has anyone taped this?
Oz615> Do you have it in english? Or Norwegian?

i used to love this show, cant find it anywhere Oz615 are you uploading the english ones?

Thank you Retro Junk, this was one of my faves and they never showed it again or did a re-run. such a good quality cartoon too. Oz615 i want to watch them, are they uploaded?

OMG!! I use ta watch this show all the time!! I forgot the name of this show and only remembered the characters!! Thanx RetroJunk!!

Yeah, I'd like to see the English version. Anyone have the 'music videos' that the Pirates sang?

Oh, oh, oh! Oh, oh, oh!
We're the pirates upon the high seas,
We can do such incredible deeds,
We have all kinds of dangerous needs...

There was at least one other one as well.

I got the English version if anyone wants me to upload it.

This show was pretty good!

The creatures were called Bic and Bac and the machine was Tehrig.

I remember watching bits and pieces of this when I was dropped off at summer camp/ kinder care day care while my mom went to work. While all the kids were being dropped off, we would wait and watch tv while eating breakfast in a lounge type area. I came in just after this show started, so I was always confused what the heck was going on lol. Odd show, But I watched it half hartedly.

I liked this show. One Nick most interesting show did have a good story.

I agree with PopplesRulz "FARTakus Stunk" lol hehe get it, my brother and I hated this show..

This ran on Nickelodeon along side with Mysterious Cities of Gold on sunday mornings if I do remember, but MCOG was actually good though
