I remember the early 80's with Tomorrow People and Black Beauty.
Spike: Ladies. Come on in. Plenty of blood in the fridge, don't be shy. Dawn: You mean like, real blood? Spike: What do you think? Dawn: Mostly I think, 'Eew!'
'Potential'
Spike's Bitches 24: I'm Very Seldom Naughty.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Clarissa Explains it All was great. I also watched Hey Dude, which really wasn't so great, but for some reason I kept watching.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Argh! This making me feel old stuff, David, does it ever stop?
Uh, with the linear progression of time and our sad ability to only experience it one way? No. You just get older and older. As for myself, I have reached a new plateau of oldness. My previous plateau was back pain. Now my knees hurt.
Pete and Pete was genius.
Undeniably true. Teppy should watch it and know it.
Mind, I was also addicted to Clarissa Explains It All
Also now available on DVD.
and Ren and Stimpy,
Also now available on DVD.
so in my mind, quality was thick on the ground at Nick in the early 90s.
Once again, undeniably true. Though they cancelled Ren & Stimpy and kept Doug so that counts against them.
JZ and Emmett are playing Mad Libs in lieu of bedtime reading. Bedtime reading has gone by the wayside lately as Emmett wants to talk about stuff like: How do you throw a curveball? and Tell me about the Atomic Shit.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
One of the songs we dance to -- it's all Arabic/Middle Eastern/Indian-influenced -- samples the theme from "Knight Rider." For serious. I dissolve into giggles every time it comes on, which really hampers my ability to wiggle my hips properly.
It's possible I've performed in a dance to that song, although I'm sure the one we used is not the only one to sample it.
I remember the early 80's with Tomorrow People and Black Beauty.
Wait, Tomorrow People was early 80s? The one I saw must have been a remake, then.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Wait, Emily -- when you said "Tomorrow People" you didn't mean the Ziggy Marley song?
Huh.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
That was me, and no not the song this [link]
It says on some of the google links it was on in the 90's, but by then I was in high school, and not hanging out watching tv in the clubhouse of the tennis courts where my mom was playing.
Ohh also Danger Mouse! [link]

Thus the link. Those were some of my favorite childhood shows.

Children of the 80's, latchkey kids and spawn of Nickelodeon...I give you...the mother lode
It's like I'm back in that clubhouse on the uncomfortable leather sofa, or one of those weird chair seat thingies with the two tilted padded panels which were supposedly ergonomically correct making Wonder Woman bracelets out of old tennis ball cans.
