Anyone remember this chalk guy called Simon who used to sing "Hello, my name is Simon and I like to do drawings"

What was it on. I remember loving it as a kid. Or . . is it something I made up.

Thank you,

I knew it existed. I am going to try and find episodes. It was awesome. I never thought to look on Wiki. I am so bad at internet searches.

Loved the show! I remember having 'green jeans' like Mr Green Jeans.

Well, you know my name is Simon,
And the things I draw come true.
And the pictures take me, take me, climbing
over the garden wall with you.

I loved Simon! And Harold and his purple Crayon.

Huh. I never knew it was an actual show. I just thought it was Mike Myers being funny!

Great, now I'm going to have that song in my head...;)

This was one of my favorites. I've not seen it since it was on PBS way back when but I've remembered the song ever since.
