[OliveMcFly]

Jacks Sally - Disneygrl I love the pic of you in your Strawberry Shortcake room
Cabbage Patch Babies/Care Bear & Gizmo it's so cute

[DisneyJill]

The show was called "Small Wonder"

Silver Spoons was a great show too! Remember? He had the train that went through the living room??? (Ricky Shroeder)

Voltron? Anybody?
Snorks?

Snorks!!! They lived underwater...There was a purple one and she wore a red dress.

I totally have Jem on DVD. And I bought Punky Brewster season 1 just tonite. My Jem doll's earrings still light up (sometimes, if you bang her head on the floor hard enough :lookaroun ) NOT that I still play with her or anything. Huh uh, not me. I never drag out my plastic tub o' Barbies and She-Ra's and Jem dolls. And I certainly did NOT cut off all of their hair when I was a kid either.

Dude, I was born in 1990 and know most of those :veryconfu .

I'm not kidding.

You and me both. Part of the reason I feel so old is as follows. On my mother's side of the family, there are 23 grandchildren, 22 under 18, so we'll exclude the oldest for a moment. Of these 22, I am the second oldest, Number 2. Today, Number 4 turned 13 and Number 3 turned 13 1/2. These are the next two oldest guys after me (Number 1 is a girl) so I'm also having this ego/"Alpha Male" issue. *sigh* *crawls into mole hole*

 

[Figment1986]

I'm late 80s and i know most of those.... (due to it going into the early 90s..)

OMG I found my Jem doll a couple months ago and was surprise to see her earings still light up...with no effort. HeHe
Did anyone hear ever have a Baby Talk?

 

[matt88mph]

I wasn't even born in the '80's, and I know a lot of those things.

You know you loved the '80s if...

...you're still trying to get The Real Ghostbusters on DVD
...you've wondered, "What happened with ABC and Saturday mornings?"
...you taped old '80s (or 1990) specials off TV
My List:
Walt Disney World's Fourth of July Spectacular
Cartoon All-Stars To The Rescue!
Disneyland's 35th Anniversary

and the list goes on and on.

 

[Atta83]

.

We taped them off the tv.

 

[imagineer boy]

Forget about those eighties, how bout those early ninteys ya'll! :sohappy: Well, okay, I was born in 1989, but grew up in the 90s. Those were the days. Ooh, and I love the Duck Tales song! I listened to that show every week day. And I forgot about pound puppies! I never had any, but I remember seeing commercials for them all the time.

 

[HMGhost13]

i'm a kid born in the 80's and a huge ghostbusters fan.

[DisneyJill]

:lol: I just bought the season one of Punky Brewster as well! gotta love that show, and that I had a coloring book with her in it. As well as my NKOTB coloring book.

Alright, so I watched the first 2 episodes of PB last nite ("Punky Finds a Home, Parts 1 & 2") and I am completely hooked. Although the continuous playing of the song makes me want to poke myself in the eye.
Eveeerrry time I.....TURN AROUND dun dun dun dun...
I see the girl who turned my world around...STANDING THERE...

Hey Atta, remember those giant NKOTB pins??? Mine had ALL the New Kids on it, even though I was a huuuuge Donnie fan. I'm woman enough to admit it: I liked Donnie, the pyromaniac. :lookaroun

"I can't help it. I am a NKOTB fan. I celebrate their entire catalogue." :lol:

Alright I'll be the first guy here to admit it: I supported NKOTB. :lookaroun I didn't enjoy their music all that much (except for Please Don't Go Girl) but I always spoke up for them because.............I went to high school with Donny and Danny in Boston, Copley Square International. They were very cool guys who didn't have inflated egos nor did they walk the halls of if they were "it". Very bright students also.

I also saw Donny's younger bro, Mark, @ school too when he was still very much a wild child. Funny thing: he was a scrawny 5'0" kid before hitting the weights and posing for Calvin Klien. Now he's gone hollywood on me.........
