Classic

So I am flipping through the channels over Christmas break and I start telling the hubs that they just don't make TV shows like the used to. We don't watch much TV in our house and when we do, it's mostly TLC, Food Network, or HGTV. Now, Matt loves him some ESPN, but as for sitcoms, there aren't really we are into. So, it made me reminisce over some of my favs when I was younger... let's take a walk down memory lane. Do you remember these? Full House. I love this show--hear that.. love, as in I still watch it when it comes on. I always thought it was cool that DJ and Stephanie shared a room and I knew sister would never have shared a room with me. Favorite episode is when DJ starts dieting and passes out at the gym... so intense!
Growing Pains. I love some Kirk Cameron... this guy is a strong Christian and speaks out on his faith a lot these days, which makes Growing Pains even cooler. Poor Carol, she was so smart and her glasses were so thick.

Punky Brewster. Oh goodness, I really wished I was Punky. I mean not the whole orphan part, but I loved her "style." She always wore those 2 different colored shoes and had the coolest room ever. Favorite episode is when they were playing hide and go seek in the back and she hid in an old fridge and got stuck. That one had me on the edge of my seat.


The Wonder Years. I sort of remember watching this one around dinner time. That mans voice that talked for Kevin always sort of creeped me out, but I loved Winnie's hair. Poor Kevin, his brother Wayne was so mean.


Saved By The Bell. I saved the best for last!! I love love love this show and still watch it at 6:00 every morning when I am getting ready for school. If they take this off the air, I will cry. There are too many favorite episodes to name, but one of my favs is when they have to make their own product and one of them makes "buddy bands." Why didn't I think of this?!

You forgot to mention one of my favorite shows...Three's Company! Love it! Haven't seen it on TV in quite a while.
I remember watching ALL of those shows growing up and they were indeed classic! Oh to have shows like we used to...

My favorite SBTB episode is, "I'm so excited, I'm so excited, I'm so, I'm so SCARED!" Poor Jessie. She didn't mean tot get addicted to the caffeine pills

Amen, to that...TV shows really aren't what they used to be!

Hope you guys are well...I was running by your place the other night (training for the marathon) and thought, I should stop by one day and say hi...but I was so out of breath, I thought I might scare you to death when you opened the door! :)
