The thing I always remember about getting up and getting ready for school that Inspector Gadget was always on. A local station called Global Television always used to play two back-to-back episodes every weekday morning. They must have aired them for at least 5 years because I remember seeing each episode numerous times. I always remember getting dressed and eating breakfast in front of the television and watching Inspector Gadget. I remember watching it while I was waiting for my mom to get ready and I always knew that once Inspector Gadget was over it was time to go to school.

The thing was, I didn't even really like the show. I thought it was alright, but how many times can you watch a show that follows the same format every time? Gadget gets a mission and blows his boss up by accident, Penny tells Brain he better follow him and make sure he's okay, then near the end Brain calls up Penny and gets her to come over there and they both solve the mystery while Gadget takes the credit. I didn't really like watching it, but for some reason I did every morning before school because it was the only thing on.

To me, Inspector Gadget has just always been synonymous with those weekday mornings before school.
