anyway i was born in '88 so this would be for me.
-yes..but boy how i hated that song!
-Doug, yes plenty on Saturday Mornings. Pinky and the Brain some. i know what Ren & Stimpy is but i never watched it cuz we didnt have cable back then. and i have no idea what Two Stupid Dogs is
-that was on Nick..couldnt watch it. but i had the Super NES video game (i look back on those days and i think boy that game was stupid)
-no..hardly ever
-not in the mood to..but i know the theme. ehh what the heck? im bored. "on the playground is where i spent most of my days. chilling out maxing all cool. when a couple of guys who were up to no good started making trouble in my neighborhood. i got in one little fight and my mom got scared, said youre moving with your auntie and uncle in Belair. i whistled for a cab and when it came near..the license plate was fresh and it had dice in the mirror. if anything i could say this cab was rare but i thought eh forget it. yo home to Belair!..*Will is driven to the house* i pulled up to the house about 7 or 8 and i told the cabbie yo homes smell ya later. looked at my kingdom i was finally there to sit on my throne as the prince of Belair. *theme song ends with him knocking on the door*" i dont watch it anymore but yeah i have a pretty good memory
-oh yes i remember TGIF all too well *sniffs and sheds a little tear* RIP TGIF! we'll never forget you.
haha! but seriously i really do miss those days sometimes. Step by Step..wasnt interested at the time but i watch it now some days. Family Matters? oh yeah i watched that all the time..as soon as Steve came on i made sure to never miss an eppy. Dinosaurs? no but i had one tape of an episode and watched it like maybe once. Boy Meets World? i seen practically all the younger episodes (when Topanga and Cory were really dating..about junior or senior year)..that was part of TGIF after a while. im starting to watch the older ones nowadays.
-no whos Selena? Tupac i never paied attention to
-oh yeah..definitely loved all those cartoons on ABC. the cartoons now are mostly trash.

-yes i bet we all thought all of this would be loved forever..we never expected all that stuff to be a fad. i always thought Furbys would last forever and with some other stuff i thought that too
-i dont really miss those times because my childhood was hectic..with my parents fighting all the time. thats the main reason why i went outside alot. and i only had one playmate so i didnt have much of a social life. my Lhasa Apso mix dog was my best friend and him i do really miss... so that was the good part about my childhood
but i love 90s music. its my favorite decade for that.
