July 16, 200422 yr I was watching I Love the 90s (96) and they had a thing on the Macarena. They cut to people doing it at PPS a few times and showed Billy the Marlin doing it too. Just thought I'd share.
July 16, 200422 yr I'm mad they did an I love the '90s. Its too early. We can't really laugh at some of the fashions etc. I love the '80s was great.
July 16, 200422 yr Author I'm mad they did an I love the '90s. Its too early. We can't really laugh at some of the fashions etc. I love the '80s was great. 460049[/snapback] Yeah, I hear that. I had to turn it off because I was getting depressed at how fast time has passed. Feels like all that stuff just happened.
July 16, 200422 yr It's already 5 years after the end of the 90's. 460052[/snapback] Its still too early.
July 16, 200422 yr Next will be: "I Love Yesterday." 460058[/snapback] Well, if you've ever seen "Best Week Ever", that's basically what it is. I didn't think the fact that it's only 2004 was going to hurt this series, but I was wrong. With I love the 80's, it was like "oh yeah! I remember that!" But with I love the 90's, at least after like '92 for me, it's been more "holy crap! It's already been 10 years since that happened?" The 80's series fed on nostalgia, the 70's series was frankly before most of our time, but still fed on nostalgia. The 90's is anti-nostalgia. I'm not ready to feel nostalgaic about most this stuff. Most of it feels like it just happened, and the fact that it actually happened like 10 years ago isn't making me nostalgaic, it's making me depressed.
July 16, 200422 yr i felt so f***ing old the other day watching I love '93 when htey talked about the Power Rangers.
July 16, 200422 yr I remember when someone shortly after 9/11 said OMG I am getting old. The first WTC attacks happened more than 8 years ago already!
July 16, 200422 yr Actually, when they did that bit about I Love the 1800's, that was kind of funny. I'd watch a couple shows on the 1800s.
July 17, 200422 yr (you don't have to go to a prestigious college to realize that 1800s is not a decade---unless you're talking about 1800-1809)
July 17, 200422 yr 1800s isnt a decade.... 461082[/snapback] A) There's no law on the books that says they have to do it decade by decade. I mean how much happened between 1800 and 1810 that people would actually know about? I can't even name one thing. And I've been thinking about it for 5 minutes now. Which is sad. B) VH1 came up with the concept of I Love The 1800's, not me, so it must be fine by them.

These shows are about America. Come on, Beinfest, you can do better than that.
July 17, 200422 yr The Napoleonic Wars involved America indirectly. And how about the House deciding a presidential election for something important that happened in the 1800s. Along with that whole Lewis and Clark thing. And let me double check if one thing I think happened happened then.
July 17, 200422 yr Yup. The most important Supreme Court case ever, Marbury vs Madison, was in 1803. 461887[/snapback] Good one.
