Kazoo Us a Clue - Never Forgotten: a Foster's Home Community

Sparky · 11-20-2024, 10:30 AM

I was contacted by a non forum member on a quest to learn more about a Cartoon Network contest (likely UK only) that took place in 2005 called "Kazoo Us a Clue". Bloo would a play a song on his kazoo and kids would phone in with their guess of what the song was, and win some prizes. I personally have no memory of this but then it may have been UK exclusive.

Does anyone remember this contest?

Here is a thread about it.

Woah. I have never even heard of it before.

So this is new to me

New one on me... granted, it's from almost 20 years ago, but I'm sure I'd remember if I saw this back in the day, Foster's and Animaniacs were my *favourites* at that point (heck, they still are

) so I'm certain the combo of both would stick in my mind.

It's a cute ad, anyway, I'm glad it was found! Not sure why it's considered "lost media" as it's available to watch, though. Are they looking for variants of the ad? Going off other CN UK contests, I'd say it's probable that there were a couple of versions with different kazoo tunes (I'd guess theme songs of other shows that aired on CN/Boomerang at the time), but I wouldn't think there'd be any other differences between ads.
