"Cobain the moaning whiner didn't save Rock, he invented emo."

I could go on forever about all the movies that I remember and no one else does. There was a glorious time where you could tune in the pay channels on cable TV by using your TV's built in antennae tuner. We got years of HBO for free before the companies wised up and made the set top boxes a requirement for all TVs.

I remember wanting to see that movie because of the music video that played constantly on MTV. But, no, I did not like it.

USA's Night Flight was probably the best TV of the whole 80's decade. I wish there was something like that today.

I remember the first time I saw Blake's 7. I was confused that the Doctor hadn't shown up at all. It had to have been a Doctor Who episode. The people all spoke the same weird way. It looked the same. It even had similar music (the guy who did a bunch of Doctor Who incidnetal music during Baker's run did it for…

I'd said the same earlier.

Didn't the littlest girl play sax? I think she ended up on the Growing Pains spin-off Just the Ten of Us.

For some reason he thought that would be 'too weird'. What! Are we living like the Puritans now?

Jesus, I was obsessed with Buck Rogers as a kid. On a side note at Dragon Con about 8 years or so ago, Erin Gray rubbed her boob up against my friend's arm while walking through the crowd.

If you were a sci-fi fan in the 80's, you ate shit and smiled. You were just happy to get a meal.

You obviously didn't live in the South.

There was a lot as I was the odd kid. My mother watched a lot of old TV, so I thought everyone was into Abbott and Costello and Tarzan and the like. I was also into Doctor Who, which is a big thing now; but in the 80's in rural Mississippi, it was rare that I met anyone who had even heard of the show.

They actually showed that to us in elementary school. I believe they also showed the sequel.

Nickelodeon in the 80's showed some cool shit from everywhere. I remember the show being very different looking from everything else. As an adult with the more knowledge I can see the obvious Moebius influence on it.

Not 'Savage' Steve's best film, but still a good one.

God I hated that movie. Couldn't they at least have taken the time to teach the actor in the gorilla suit some simple sign language instead of just having him shake his arm up and down?

Macho Man Randy Savage once got into a butter knife fight in a Waffle House. I dare anyone to top that.

How many animated films even have a G rating today?

I actually find that the original was way more tongue in cheek.
