So-an OLD series from way back.Heres what I remember:

-this kid is in some sort of a drema world and constantly tries to find a way to "wake up" and return to his body and his parents.

Any ideas?

Sounds like a lot of dreams I've had! I don't remember, but I'll ask around people I know see if rings a bell with any of them! Um, how 'old' series?

Nineties at most,EARLY nineties,none of the fancy animation.Kinda like-not the type of a camera used in "Clarissa explains it all",(beter),but not a movie camera either.
