The 90s was nothing compared to the 80s, but I can see why most FF posters would like the 90s. Most of them are too young to remember the 80s.

The 90's were great in ways, of course, but it really has nothing on the 80's. And yeah, there always seems to be a lot of younger people on the boards and they would be more connected to the 90's.

Yeah I was born in middle of the 80s, 1984 so all the 90s shows were my childhood and teen memories of shows and movies, but I love the 80s with their movies, actors, and music the best.

My teen years were the 90's, and even though a lot of people think back on their teen years, I don't.

Years I don't really care to remember. Lol. My childhood in the 80's was magical.

There were a number of shows from the 80's that continued into the 90's, and of course there were some great new shows and movies, but there was just magic in the 80's. I say "Magic" a lot, and so do others, and it's kind of hard to describe it. It just is. I mean, you could say the movies were better, the music was better, the actors were better, the TV shows were better, or whatever. Or name off a number of great, iconic movies or whatnot. But it's more than that that is hard to put into words. It was a feeling. A Vibe.

Yep, and you don't understand it unless you've lived through it.

Barrybgb · 07-08-2009, 09:04 AM

Yep. If you were a kid in that time, or maybe not even a kid, you understand. Luckily, there are young people who were barely born in the 80's or after that have found the brilliance that is this decade. Lol.

**Rainstorm Jenny** · 07-10-2009, 09:07 PM

Yeah I see where your both coming from, believe me, I love the 80s and everything about it, but also I love the 90s as well. They are both very fond memories of mine.

Don't get me wrong, there were some great things that came with the 90's that I liked or loved : Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Friends, Seinfeld, Home Improvement, Scream, Eerie Indiana, Everybody Loves Raymond, Titanic, 7th Heaven(although I usually don't tell anybody that), The WB in general, and a bunch of other things.

Personal-wise, it wasn't always the greatest of times. Didn't care much for my teen years. Lol.

I had already mentioned that a number of 80's shows made it into the 90's : Married With Children, Roseanne, Full House, Growing Pains, Who's The Boss, and a few others. The early 90's I love the best because it still felt like it was the 80's warmed over a little bit. Lol.

We didn't even have the WB when 7th started. It was around the end of the 2nd or beginning of the 3rd season that I first saw it.

Well, if we're going to increase posts, this thread should help. It sure has gotten off topic.. lol

Barrybgb · 07-11-2009, 12:58 PM

Oops. Lol.

**Melis** · 07-18-2009, 07:20 PM

We've been meeting our post counts, so I think we can close this. I just don't want anyone to think they can slack off in their posting, though.
