The 80s on VH1
I don’t normally watch VH1, but today they had a series dedicated to the 80s. They showcased the major entertainment influences of each year. I saw a few early in the day, then a few in the evening. I missed ‘89, and I was so looking forward to them mentioning New Kids. But I did remember a lot of the things they mentioned for 81, 82, 87, and 88. I think those were all the ones I saw. It was great seeing all those old things again. Silver Spoons, the Coreys (Haim and Feldmen), the Wonder Years, etc. I enjoyed the show. And horrified that we actually dressed the way we did…it really was pretty bad, even though it was the coolest thing at the time. :O
I caught part of the one where they mentioned New Kids. It was frightening. In fact, that’s why I’m up reading other people’s blogs instead of sleeping. I think I’m more terrified of the New Kids fans than anything else.
