Looks like the G.A.W. is one big trip back to my childhood (and that's great fun!)
As far as gingers go, she was the unchallenged idol of my childhood:
Pippi Longstocking aka Pippilotta Viktualia Rullgardina Krusmynta Efraimsdotter Långstrump(as portrayed by Inger Nilsson)
I loved and still love just about everything about her, from her clothes to her

Next to Asterix in Switzerland (*howls with laughter just thinking about it*) is Asterix in Britain which I bought in Isca :DDDDD

Asterix in Switzerland is priceless - AND SO TRUE! Gods, I wish I could say it isn't, but it's so, so typical. And I've come across more than one Feistus Raclettus here!
"In den See! In den See!"
Asterix in Britain
Ahahah! THE RUGBY GAME! Not much has changed, especially if you look at the traffic jams in Londurium. *snigger*

THIS. Censoring them means only that someone will write them again. Explaining them can avert it.
What esteven said, thanks for Idefix! ^^ And the "Switzerland" book is traumatic in places. I always sided with the owner of the clean profaned floor. *shudder* *sniff*

I've never read any of the green gables books (my mom said she loved them, but unfortunately there were only Enid Blyton and "Carolyn Keene" books in our class room to choose from), so I did watch the series, and unfortunately megan follows bears enough resemblance to have me watch the series x)
Thank you for reminding of the G.a.w. Need to go through the photobucket album for some of the goodies.

I'm missing Wickie on your list. ;_;
I used to love Enid Blyton as a teenager. Now I read the books in some puzzlement, wondering why I didn't notice even then that... pretty much every book is exactly the same. Nothing wrong with cashing in on a formula if it works, but damn, SO OBVIOUS!
Also, Asterix in Switzerland is possibly the most quotable of all Asterixes. And they're all pretty quotable...
(Icon chosen for further redheadedness. ^^)

Not thaaat much of a Wickie fan, but you're right, he should be there. Have you seen the movie, btw.?
every book is exactly the same
True! I think that was one of the things grating on my nerves. Never change a winning horse...
Icon love, of course!

Awww, I love Wickie! First fandom I wrote fanfic for! It was horrible. My mother probably still keeps it somewhere so I can't destroy it.
I've seen the first movie, yup - not the second, though. I was positively surprised. With the combination of Bully Herbig and the general difficulties of recreating animé with real actors, I would've expected the material to get a much less loving and respectful treatment.
I read all the books, too, back in the day. Good times. ^^
I suspect that my adoration for red hair actually hails back to watching Wickie religiously.
Considering how much I love red hair, it's shameful how few icons of pretty red-headed people I have. ;_;
