[dorian gray]

Night Court sucked worse than any show ever made
What is wrong with you guys?

 

[Climb Thar Hill]

ALF and Perfect Strangers

We were watching clips of Perfect Strangers at work yesterday

Our Russian comrade co-worker Dmitri reminds us of Balki so we had to show him and larf. twas good times. then i ate a pretzel

 

[Carbonized]

Needs more Airwolf and A-Team. Cartoon-wise, needs more Transformers, Voltron, Robotech and The Real Ghostbusters
There was also some barbarian/fantasy-type show that I have never been able to remember the name of. I guess it had to have been around '85 and I think some guy had his eyelids cut off in one episode.

Perfect Strangers ... LOL @ Balki


How about Small Wonder?

 

[Reign in Acai]

Small Wonder ruled, as did Mr. Belvedere.


What a theme!!

Pittsburgh - fuck yeah!

 

[Reign in Acai]

Charles in fucking Charge!

Nicole Eggert was quite the pear.




Note - I was 4 when this came out and she was 13 [/notapedophile]

 

[Dark One]

I definitely enjoyed that show, but man was that one of the lamest theme songs ever.

"And I see....I want Charles in charge of me."

Voltron kicks ass.

 

[Reign in Acai]

The 80's were the Golden Age for Children's cartoons. Now you have Pokemon, Yugi-Oh, and other faggot shit that makes Sesame Street look like G.I Joe by comparison.

... did you guys watch the Scott Baio is 45 and Single series on VH1 a few months back? ... brilliant ... the dude banged everyone on the show.

Growing Pains and Wonder Years ruled also ... in the pimply gay way.

Winnie

 

[Ars Magna]

She turned out ok.

Cartoon-wise, I always thought Thundar The Barbarian kicked some ass.

[Tide In Mind Out]

I never really watched Thundercats. I watched:

haha, of course I still remembered the melody, but I completely don't recall that arrangement! wtf is that? That woman sings it so dramatic and almost weepy, like Charles was sent to this Earth to bring world peace, stop global warming, and save a beached whale. And then, they throw in some crazy mariachi horns just for the fuck of it.

Winnie

Not only does she have that great body, she's some sort of genius too, and hot genius chicks are 2x hot. Still has a bit of a grandma-mouth though.

I liked all the cheesy sitcoms well enough, but for me, 80s TV was all about the hour-long action/adventure shows. So,

Magnum P.I.
Knight Rider
MacGyver
Dukes of Hazzard

...and if 80s/90s-crossover Wonder Years (which was brilliant) is legal here, then I also have to include Star Trek: The Next Generation.

Nicole Eggert was hot.
Willie Ames was also known as Bibleman.
Danica McKeller is a math teacher.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Nicole Eggert was indeed hot. Remember the movie she was in with her titties all over it? I remember being young getting all excited over that shit.

"Charles in charge of our days and our nights.........Charles in charge of our wrongs and our riggggggggggghhhhhhhtttttttssssssss!!!!"

LOL - it's so horrible it somehow rules.

Indeed - hot genius chicks FTW, but hot genius chicks who are also very flirtatious/sexual in nature =

...and if 80s/90s-crossover Wonder Years (which was brilliant) is legal here, then I also have to include Star Trek: The Next Generation.

Possibly my favorite show ever (based on the ol' mood of the day criteria). "The Best of Both Worlds" Parts 1 & 2 could easily have been a theatrical release. Just superb acting and intriguing storylines.
