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.
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.
Wait, Emily -- when you said "Tomorrow People" you didn't mean the Ziggy Marley song?
Huh.
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]
Ohh also Danger Mouse! [link]
Also recently out on DVD.
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.
I'm way late on this, but I agree that the shower at the spa is excessive, Aimee.
Also, is Luna still biting you? I thought she was over that.
Just some of the shows I recognize
Mr Wizards World, Livewire, Special Delivery, The Third Eye, Belle and Sebastien, The Little Prince, Out of Control, Turkey TV
Sadly I can also see exactly where my Nick viewing tapered with the exception of Nick at Nite.
Plei! How are you? How is Lilibeaner? How big now?
I'm tired, mildly cranky for no good reason, and she feels about 10lbs, I think.
Emily, I'm your age +/- a year (I'll be 31 on the 19th of this month). While the late 80s is probably when my Nick watching started (when it was added to our cable package), I got a TV for my 17th birthday, which meant never having to fight for the TV and losing to my mother's game shows.
You know what I miss? 120 Minutes, Kevin Seal, and Liquid Television
And Dobie Gillis.
I told Jon it was called Liquid Television!!! He kept saying it was Oddities, which I think was something else.
Also, I'm feeling very get offa my lawn with the kids thinking the Pete&Pete era was the golden age of Nickelodeon. Nothing beats The Mysterious Cities of Gold or the amazing creepiness of the Third Eye shows. Horrible production values, but they still give me the wigs.
ETA: Plei three words. Stick. Figure. Theater.
