Gummi Bears

Does anyone else remember The Gummi Bears cartoon from the 80’s? I was trying to convince Milenka that they really did exist one night, but she didn’t believe me until I could show her a webpage and prove that they existed. Still, I don’t think she had ever seen it. It was a Disney cartoon lined up along side of shows like Duck Tales, Chip and Dale’s Rescue Rangers, Talespin, Darkwing Duck, etc.
So in an effort to prove that more than just I had seen it, I decided to ask a guy I work with if he remembered it. He’s within a year of my age. He too thought I was crazy. I started asking other people my age if they remembered. Every single person remembered. One guy even started singing the theme song??� 
Once the first guy saw a picture of them he remembered right away (so he said�). When I told Milenka this, she said that she was probably just too old to have seen it (she’s all of 2 years older than me�). I then had to tell her that another guy I work with who’s 5 or 6 years older than she is remembered�
So that still makes Milenka the only person to have no clue here.I can’t imagine why. When I was trying to convince her that they existed, she started listing off about 40 other 80’s cartoons asking me if I was thinking of a particular episode of each show. She’s knows a lot of shows I’ve never even heard of.
