extra notes:

-the intro used to scare the pants off me. dunno why.

-this was what sparked my interest in irish mythology. i am still very much interested in it and my memories of this show have been a big, BIG inspiration for my works on the topic. i'd like to find the show so i can properly give credit.

-at the end of the first episode, the sea god and seabird lady sing a duet.

-the second episode mentioned someone called "medb". i don't know who she is exactly, but most evidence points to queen medb of connacht from the ulster cycle.

I have read this inquiry before, and it was answered. I think it was a tv show adapting Irish myths. Try scrolling down through older You Know That Show inquiries until you find it.

the only similar query i could find was about a movie, the secret of the kells specifically, which definitely isn’t it.

I'm sorry for giving you poor information.

This is too new to be the one you're looking for, but Youtube has numerous episodes of Live Irish Myths and Legends if that would help you figure out the stories themselves.

@rookpaw no, sorry. my elementary-school music teacher showed us this from either a CD or some website like YT or something. but thanks for the interest!

bump. also gotta update that i remember another thing about the second episode. apart from “medb”, someone with the epithet “red” was mentioned. reminds me of macha the red, who was sort of a catalyst for certain events in the táin bó cuailgne. i am becoming more convinced that this was about the TBC, but i looked at all the TBC-inspired works i could find and still… nothing.

also i should’ve mentioned this at the start, but this was a musical series. i watched it in music class and all the movies and stuff that the teacher would show us was musical.

update: i am becoming increasingly convinced that the “first episode” was just a mis-remembering of song of the sea, so now i’m more focused on finding the latter. thanks!

looked through those, all the queries i can find related to irish folklore/mythology-inspired media seem to yield the same answers ( cartoon saloon movies, faeries, darby o’gill, etc. ) and none of them are it
