The 80s Club

Because she was just so darn cute, right? And absolutely the epitome of 80’s fashion.
The only other thing I remember seeing Soleil Moon Frye in was Sabrina, The Teenage Witch (I don’t have cable, it was on, that’s my excuse) with Melissa Joan Hart, though wiki does list a few other things that I should have remembered. The Friends thing does ring a bell.
Did you remember that there was a Punky Brewster cartoon as well? I’d forgotten about that. It appears that Frye was the voice for Punky there, too.

That intro …read more

By far, one of my favorite sitcoms ever was Night Court. It happens to be one of Bald Man’s, too, and this was his pick for this week’s sitcom theme. We should actually watch it together sometime, now that we’re both old enough to finally get all of the jokes.
Enjoy.

I know, I know, I’m a day late. In addition to having the flu, I was having technical difficulties last night. Thanks for your patience.
The theme to Cheers is just comforting, I think. It’s gotta be one of my top ten favorite theme songs ever. Here you go:

Why Roseanne this week, you ask? No other reason than that the Chicago Bears are in the Super Bowl, and that Roseanne was set near Chicago in Illinois. (I thought Lanford was supposed to be near Chicago, but over at Wikipedia, you find that the actualy location of Lanford varied depending on which episode you were watching. Wikipedia also goes into the whole Becky switch thing that went on. That bugged me.) That’s it. Nothing more.
Roseanne entered the sitcom arena with a bang, at least in our house. We watched this show together …read more

Alright, I really thought I’d posted the Kids Incorporated Theme last Thursday. Not sure where my mind is. Have you seen it lying around? Kind of a gray, mushy, slimy lump of summthin’. No? Okay.
Anyway, lucky you, you get two, yes two, themes in one! In one day, at least.
Scott Baio has been in my head for awhile (oh…’bout 20 years, I’d guess.. ). He was most adorable as Chachi on Happy Days, but lost a little appeal when he married Joanie Cunningham (‘cuz they were real people, you know?). …read more

Kids Incorporated. One of those Saturday morning shows (at least I think that’s when it aired, when else would it have?) that I remember loving, but I no longer have any idea why I liked it or what the plot was even. Kids dancing, that’s what I remember. You can head over here to see what Wikipedia remembers about it.
Enjoy the theme song, and watch for Fergie (Stacey Ferguson) of the Black Eyed Peas. She’s the first one to be credited. Crazy, huh?

Okay, so I’m gonna go ahead and make a Thursday Theme out of this whole theme song thing. Hmmmm…that was a lot of “th’s” in that sentence. Odd.
Anyway, we both know that you could look these up yourself, but we also both know that you won’t. I will, because it’s my job. (heehee, this is my job. That still floors me.) And besides, if you were to look these up, you’d actually have to remember all of these often ridiculous shows. Unlike me, I’m sure you’ve relieved your poor little brain cells from …read more

I’m starting to love YouTube, can you tell?
This theme came to mind and, whaddya know, there it was for my viewing pleasure. I don’t even think that the VCR was all that popular yet when this show was on. Who knew a few decades later we could press a few keys on our laptop computers, access a website via our wireless connection, and conjure up just about any 80’s TV theme that we wanted? Would’ve sounded a bit like sci-fi back then (does still a little now to me!).
Anyway, here’s a good example …read more
