VH1 "I Love The 90's", Anyone?

Postby devildog » Mon Jul 05, 2004 11:44 pm

Is anyone planning on watching this show? I think it premiers July 12th.

I will pass, except for a few good shows (X-Files) and bands (Mojave 3, High Llamas), the 90's is a decade I would rather forget.

Not me. I found the 90's to be absolutely abysmal in all aspects.
I just don't think about it that much.[|)]

I'm going to watch it(watching I love the 80s strikes back was like watching Roots at my house), even though I hate the 90s.

It will be depressing since it won't be the 80s(or the 70s), and if anything it will just make me yearn for more 80s nosalgia.

Sheesh, the hostility toward the 90s is overflowing here! [:p]

I'm totally gonna watch it. From Titanic to those stupid Furby's to Lollapalooza. It's gonna be great seeing those talking heads roast the whole decade. [:D]

The 90's were too much like the 70's.

Nothing good from the 60's lasted long into the 1970's
Likewise, not much good from the 80's lived long in the 90's.

I think the 1980's only lasted until 1988 and the 90's did not stop until 2001.
Sure it soun

I agree with you, Jimbo. It does not sound weird at all. However, I do not think the 90's ended in 2001. The 90's are still alive. I think everything is still "stuck" in the 90's. So far, the millenium has not been too exciting.[:(]

Yeah, about 90% of the 80's SUCKED too! There's good music in every decade if you look for it.

I think it's just too soon for an "I love the 90s" show.

I'll probably check out a few episodes of that show. I reckon I'd be more nostalgic for the early 90's than say..1998, because nothing much has changed since 1998 and I go around thinking it's 1998 anyway until someone reminds me it is'nt.

It's a litt

The music of the 90's has sucked all along. Its preety nostalgic and sad to see that the fosforescence of new wave was rejected and overlooked by Grunge. And yet to see that such abysmal and bland genres like teen pop, nu metal, and hip hop rose only to s
