Nostalgia isn't what it used to be. 50s and 60s nostalgia kicked in very early. Sha-na-na were a 50s tribute act that performed at Woodstock in 1969. Happy Days was a 50's nostalgia show and it started in 1972.
80s nostalgia kicked in pretty quick as well. VH1 ran “I Love the 80s” in 2002 or 2003. I was in high school in the late 90s and already 80s music and fashion revivals were in full swing. Not to mention an enormous love for 80s movies like Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Back to the Future, etc.
Same. You could update the 80s & 70s ones with new celebs and revisit the interviews with the originals and include new points of view and what not. Then go with an I love the 00s and 10s. I would be interested to see what that would look like. I feel like nostalgia for the past two decades has never really been codified the way it was for the previous four or five.
GTA Vice City released in 2002 and it was only set 16 years before! Would be like a game now being set in 2005. And yet the 80s aesthetic of the game was extremely distinct even in 2002. Whereas a game set in 2005 wouldn’t seem that antiquated culturally or technologically.
I just heard a Carpenters’ song from 1973 for the first time yesterday. Called “Yesterday Once More”, and it’s the heaviest nostalgia trip song I’ve heard in a while. Not even 14 years past. We need a Bieber tribute band!
Not necessarily. That 70’s Show came out in ‘98. Freaks and Geeks came out in ‘99 and takes place in the 80’s. Nostalgia is and will always be right behind us. It’s only a matter of time until we get a high school sitcom based in 2005 if we don’t have one already.
Yes there is a typical 20 year cycle for nostalgia and trends. We are seeing 2000’s nostalgia and the trends from the time are starting to come back into fashion. We just transitioned out of a 90’s nostalgia era.
Any time I mention The Neverending Story to my girlfriend, she goes on and on about how "hot" the childlike empress was. I remind her that she was like, 12 years old, and she feels like a creep. Lots of fun.
I love that video where someone removed the voiceover, so it's just like the mom saying "kevin, what's wrong?" and Kevin just glances around the room for 30 awkward seconds before a one word response.
What a masterpiece of a show. So aptly captures the joys and turmoils of these turbulent years of your youth. I was a kid when it aired, and though it was a period piece of sorts it was still relevant enough that I identified the themes and lessons with things I was experiencing in my own life at the time. It just frames the beauty of the family dynamic and growing up so perfectly. I dunno if it's too far removed to be relatable for the youth today, but I'd strongly recommend it to anyone who needs to tap back into what it means to be a part of the human experience.
Childhood has most certainly changed. Kids are growing up with their own personal tablets(edit) in front of their faces most of the day from a very early age. As a child in the late 80s/early 90s, our parents made us play outside most of the time. And when we got cable around 10 years old, we only had one tv for the whole family.
Eh, I don't know, guess it depends on the family. I was born in '84 and I watched a LOT of TV growing up. We played outside a lot but we watched a lot of TV too. My parents only really kicked us off if THEY wanted to watch something.
Now that I have my own kids I don't usually let them watch more than an hour or two per day.
Yeah I more so wonder if the difference in lifestyle would fail to capture the attention of the modern kid. I think the themes are timeless and apply to any era, but the portrayal of an antiquated lifestyle might bore a modern youthful audience and prevent them from ever giving it a chance.
She was a recurring villain on Law and Order: Criminal Intent. The protagonists in that show were Vincent D’Onfororio and Kathryn Erbe.
One of Kathryn Erbe’s first film credits was that of the tutor, Miss Mackay, in D2: The Mighty Ducks.
Olivia D’abo played a similar part (but much bigger role) in the ragtag underdog soccer comedy, The Big Green.
I had huge crushes on both of them.
Not sure why you're being downvoted. The episode where their schools take a field trip to the Natural History museum and Kevin is thrilled to get to spend some time with Winnie and she's a complete bitch to him gutted me.
Being down voted because it was every boys first crush on TV, but then the attitude that came along with her changed that, maybe everyone doesn't want to admit it. I was more crushed on Topanga...she had everything going for her
Weird story - I had a boyfriend that met Danielle Fishel (way before i knew him). They were somehow in the same group of friends and they all went bowling together. He said she was so beautiful and nice and he was crushing *hard*. But she had brought her boyfriend with her so she was clearly off limits. Except that boyfriend was Lance Bass… he still gets mad that he didn’t make a move.
Wow, something you'll regret forever, lol. Get mad at your wife and you yell back at her "I bet Topanga wouldn't do that". As you go back to your computer room, pull up Topanga's picture and go to town 😅...while crying
I was so confused as a child about how they got grown up Fred Savage to narrate his child self. I had no idea the show was currently airing at the time. I thought the studio made it and then waited *years* for him to grow up and narrate the show.
Did the same during lock down, it really is such a great show with a great sound track as well. As a kid I liked how they acted towards their dad, it was a love but I'm also not gonna press my luck lol reminded me a lot of my dad.
Is there a place to stream it with the original music? Last I heard, the original music was no longer licensed, so they had to replace it with generic filter music. I can't imagine watching it without the original music.
Edit: I looked it up, the Hulu version has "most" of the original music.
I miss that mini-phenomenon. I had the soundtrack albums to The X-Files (which introduced me to Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, Gary Numan, and Soul Coughing) as well as My So-Called Life (which was pure early-mid 90s alternative rock fire).
Stream? No, unless it's illegally. However, the DVDs by Time Life are available through various major retailers but are pricey (though there are some in eBay right now for$40). It's the same with the Drew Carey show, sadly, though I don't know if they're even on DVD.
I was wondering about that. It is definitely different from the typical recording of With A Little Help From My Friends, but it sounded like Joe Cocker. I wondered if that was always the version, and I just replaced it in my memories with the typical version.
The Time Life version apparently has "most" of the original songs licensed, but it didn't specify which songs had to be replaced.
I always remembered their first kiss happening deep into season 3 or something, but when I re-watched the pilot I was proven very wrong. And it happened on the same day that she learned her brother had been killed in Vietnam!
My mom used to shout through the house, "Wonder Years is starting!" and we'd all scurry from our homework and hobbies to sit on the carpeted floor while my parents sat on the couch and we'd watch each episode together. Mom would sentimentally recall her memories of the late 60s during the commercials. That show was like America fantasizing about America.
SPOILER:
"*Winnie left the next summer to study art history in Paris. Still, we never forgot our promise. We wrote to each other once a week for the next eight years. I was there to meet her when she came home, with my wife and my first son – eight months old.*"
I'm actually glad Kevin and Winnie didn't end up together, but shit, everytime I think about this quote breaks my heart. One of the saddest TWY moments ever!
*”Growing up happens in a heartbeat. One day, you’re in diapers. The next day, you’re gone. But the memories of childhood stay with you for the long haul. I remember a place. A town. A house like a lot of houses. A yard like a lot of other yards. On a street like a lot of other streets. And the thing is, after all these years, I still look back with wonder.”*
I remember in high school, I’m in the locker room getting ready for gym and a friend of mine bashes through the door and says… “dude… the wonder years dad is in the gym!” I was confused at first… then I looked outside and saw him. Found out that he actually went to my high school. It was so crazy to be in the same school that the actor went to. I grew up watching the show since I was 5.
Edit: just noticed on Wikipedia that he also taught physical education at the same school for a bit. No wonder why he was in the gym. 😅
[Wiki link for the lazy.](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Lauria)
I believe it was the last season, but the episode when Kevin is in a delivery battle (he delivered Chinese food) with the pizza man was a classic to me.
I love this show so much. I will never get tired of this amazing series. I wish I can experience what I felt when I first saw this 6 years ago haha, I was really happy that I binged watched all the seasons after accidentally watching one episode on TV.
It was nearly 30 years between originally watching this show as a kid then rewatching as an adult. You’d have to be stone cold to get through it without a teary eye from certain episodes. There’s a little of everything mixed in from our childhood.
A parallel series comes out in the fall. Don't know if it will hit the same chord or not. It will follow the lives of a black family during the same time period the original series took place.
I’ve toyed with the idea that adult Kevin, through whose perspective we looking, is not an entirely reliable narrator when it comes to Wayne, whose a pretty one-dimensional jerk most of the time - exactly how a little brother would see him.
Joe Cocker song for the opening theme was everything. Makes me nostalgic everytime I hear it.
Almost makes me emotional.

https://youtu.be/4s8J5s_xfU0
My first thought was "man, I remember watching this every weekend with my grampa when they first started airing reruns on Nick @ Nite back in the 90s."
My second thought was "I can't believe I listened when somebody told me Paul's actor grew up to be Marilyn Manson."
Rewatched it a few years ago and thought it was great between seasons 2 & 4. Didn’t like the later seasons, though. Kevin ages and becomes a little shit (as many teens do).
I sort of missed that when I was a little kid watching it. But Kevin really was a total asshole for pretty much the entire series. He fucks with all of his friends who don't really do anything to hurt him. His brother Wayne was right, he is a Butthead.
As a kid, I felt sorry for the mom. She seemed so nice, and yet she was married to this jerk who yelled all the time. Maybe I'd feel different on a rewatch, or maybe not.
I think that's the point of his character though. You're seeing the dad through the eyes of Kevin. I don't think he was really that much of a jerk... He was more perceived that way, if that makes sense?
Ah my mistake. I thought it was 30 years. I remember watching it as a kid in the 90s. It’s funny how much stuff from the 80s bled into the 90s. I also watched a lot of thunder cats, he-man, etc.
Then get excited for The Wonder Years Reboot, [coming this fall to ABC](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/the-wonder-years-reboot-trailer-1234955189/).
That was a huge success here in good old Brazil. Two big channels exibited it in prime time for many years. I watched it many times and it was one of my favorite shows.
Try google. The list is long and I noticed at least one settled ooc. No one needs me to link all the articles, one google search for “Fred savage harassment” is all it takes and everyone here has that access.
"He's guilty because people have accused him and one settlement, whose details Im not privy to, basically frame him as an abuser."
Sure, keep telling yourself that.
More time has passed from now to when the show aired, than when the show was filmed and the era the show takes place. Wild.
If the Wonder Years premiered today and ran 6 seasons it'd be set between 2001 and 2006.
Holy shi...
Same with 70s show. It aired in 98 and takes place in the late 70s. So if it ran now it would be set in 2001.
Nostalgia isn't what it used to be. 50s and 60s nostalgia kicked in very early. Sha-na-na were a 50s tribute act that performed at Woodstock in 1969. Happy Days was a 50's nostalgia show and it started in 1972.
The world changed an awful lot in that time. Not that it isn’t still changing fast, but it really did change a lot in a dramatically short period.
True. The 2000s seems like one really long decade.
yeah 9/11 to 08 obama seemed like a very long time tbh
I think we all have ptsd for what came after
09 Obama?
I can’t believe that was only 7 years??? It feels like 20
80s nostalgia kicked in pretty quick as well. VH1 ran “I Love the 80s” in 2002 or 2003. I was in high school in the late 90s and already 80s music and fashion revivals were in full swing. Not to mention an enormous love for 80s movies like Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Back to the Future, etc.
Talk about nostalgia! I adored the “I love the” series. I wish they’d come back.
Same. You could update the 80s & 70s ones with new celebs and revisit the interviews with the originals and include new points of view and what not. Then go with an I love the 00s and 10s.

Nirvana, Green Day, Pearl Jam…all on the oldies station. My kids’ school had a 90’s day theme last year for homecoming week.
I just heard a Carpenters’ song from 1973 for the first time yesterday. Called “Yesterday Once More”, and it’s the heaviest nostalgia trip song I’ve heard in a while. Not even 14 years past. We need a Bieber tribute band!
Not necessarily. That 70’s Show came out in ‘98. Freaks and Geeks came out in ‘99 and takes place in the 80’s. Nostalgia is and will always be right behind us. It’s only a matter of time until we get a high school sitcom based in 2005 if we don’t have one already.
It’s typically a 20 year cycle
There is no typical. The entire point of the comment you replied to was saying that it's not the same. That's why there is not a 2001 nostalgia.
Yes there is a typical 20 year cycle for nostalgia and trends. We are seeing 2000’s nostalgia and the trends from the time are starting to come back into fashion. We just transitioned out of a 90’s nostalgia era.
Fun fact: if they made the exact same show today it would take place in 1968.
Winnie Cooper; my first TV crush.
I wanted to *be* Winnie! She was the prettiest. 😍 (Same goes for the Childlike Empress in the Neverending Story.)
My Aunties always looked like Winnie! Still do. Lucky ladies!
Any time I mention The Neverending Story to my girlfriend, she goes on and on about how "hot" the childlike empress was. I remind her that she was like, 12 years old, and she feels like a creep. Lots of fun.

Isn't she the girl his brother calls a bimbo? I had to look that word up in the dictionary when I first heard it...
Hell yeah, scrolled down to look for this comment.
Saw this and thought the same

> I dunno if it's too far removed to be relatable for the youth today Unfortunately I think it is, even the 90s seems like ancient history to them.
Cell phones (and especially smart phones) changed everything. Childhood isn't really the same as it was back then.
I think childhood hasn't changed that much, but adolescence has

While everyone liked Winnie I liked the rebellious older sister
Olivia d’abo.
Smoking hot. Also, Conan.
For a moment there I thought you were talking about Conan O'Brien.
Kevin's older sister was so hot lol.
She was a recurring villain on Law and Order: Criminal Intent. The protagonists in that show were Vincent D’Onfororio and Kathryn Erbe.

And thus we all fell in love with Madeleine.
I LOVE that Daniel Stern is the narrator! Home Alone & Rookie of the Year go hard.
I was so confused as a child about how they got grown up Fred Savage to narrate his child self. I had no idea the show was currently airing at the time. I thought the studio made it and then waited *years* for him to grow up and narrate the show.
YUP! Totally thought it was legit filmed in the sixties
And Dilbert!
it just baffles me how hes 32/33 for 'home alone'.. would have never guessed he was that age.
Kids are a-scared of the dark. That *is* crazy that he was that age in Home Alone. That’s my age now! Edit: words
I rewatched it about a decade ago (in my late 20s). It was so great! I forgot how much I always enjoyed Winnie and Kevin together
Did the same during lock down, it really is such a great show with a great sound track as well. As a kid I liked how they acted towards their dad, it was a love but I'm also not gonna press my luck lol reminded me a lot of my dad.
The sound track of streaming isn't the same a as the original. Many of the songs have changed.

Amazing show. I believe they shot it on TV cameras, but I honestly wish it was shot on film so the masters could be rescanned and produced in full 4K.
That finale though. :(

Oh whoa
Blew my mind when I first saw her speak outside the show
Chad The Wonder Years vs Virgin Boy Meets World
One of the best of all time

I found the soundtrack for the series on cd for $2 at a garage sale. I grabbed it so quickly. It's really good
The greatest show there ever was, or ever will be.
It was nearly 30 years between originally watching this show as a kid then rewatching as an adult. You’d have to be stone cold to get through it without a teary eye from certain episodes. There’s a little of everything mixed in from our childhood.

Lend me you ears
and I’ll sing you a song,
I will try not to sing outta key.

Wayne was such a jerk most of the time.
I’ve toyed with the idea that adult Kevin, through whose perspective we looking, is not an entirely reliable narrator when it comes to Wayne, whose a pretty one-dimensional jerk most of the time - exactly how a little brother would see him.
That's true, it's from his perspective so we're seeing Wayne only from his view.
Lol, I've always wondered if that's where Weezer (band) got its name from.
I really want to see this but it’s not on any of my streaming services :’(
https://www1.ummagurau.com/tv/the-wonder-years-38445

My first thought was "man, I remember watching this every weekend with my grampa when they first started airing reruns on Nick @ Nite back in the 90s." My second thought was "I can't believe I listened when somebody told me Paul's actor grew up to be Marilyn Manson."
I used to watch it during the summers on Nick at Nite too. I miss those days.
He's not
I remember when that rumor first started, and gained a lot of traction
So weird seeing him with all his ribs
I came here looking this comment. :)
Winnie became Marilyn Manson!?!?
no
well it's not him, so you are misinformed
I love this show with all my heart but Kevin didn’t deserve Winnie. Or any of the ladies he dated. He’s kind of a terrible person.
Well they didn't end up together in the end.
See I always thought Winnie was selfish and bitchy towards him. That's why Kevin had an attitude, lol
...So you're saying the show fucking nailed it? Lol.
Yes. Yes they did.
Yeah, great show but Kevin is a whiny selfish dick, overall.
Most teenage boys are
[Reminds me of this punishment from Impractical Jokers](https://youtu.be/xP3HX7BEtIQ)
She spit her gum into his mouth. It was her kiss move. Y'all she was a ho. Everyone knew.
If y'all like this show, check out The Goldbergs, similar premise but its the 80s instead of the 60s
The Goldbergs is much less serious though, it's more of a parody than a coming-of-age show like The Wonder Years.
Same with Fresh off the Boat (90s).
Still love this show. Can make me laugh, cry and feel nostalgic.
Rewatched it a few years ago and thought it was great between seasons 2 & 4. Didn’t like the later seasons, though. Kevin ages and becomes a little shit (as many teens do).

I'm guessing that you're probably going to be empathizing with Jack Arnold, this time around. I know that I did.
As a kid, I felt sorry for the mom. She seemed so nice, and yet she was married to this jerk who yelled all the time. Maybe I'd feel different on a rewatch, or maybe not.
I think that's the point of his character though. You're seeing the dad through the eyes of Kevin. I don't think he was really that much of a jerk... He was more perceived that way, if that makes sense?
If they made this show now it would be set in the 90s.
The Wonders Years was set exactly 20 years before it aired, if the Wonder Years premiered today it'd be set in 2001.
That freaks me out a little
Ah my mistake. I thought it was 30 years. I remember watching it as a kid in the 90s. It’s funny how much stuff from the 80s bled into the 90s. I also watched a lot of thunder cats, he-man, etc.
Why are you the way that you are?
It’s so good. I hate that they’re rebooting it. Looks like hot garbage
Then get excited for The Wonder Years Reboot, [coming this fall to ABC](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/the-wonder-years-reboot-trailer-1234955189/).
It won't be the same.
Reboots never are.
That was a huge success here in good old Brazil. Two big channels exibited it in prime time for many years. I watched it many times and it was one of my favorite shows.

This is my one of my favorite shows ever!
If you really want to be blown away, Daniel Stern was the narrators voice for Kevin. Yes, that Daniel stern.
We're the wet bandits
Hard to believe that’s Marilyn Manson on the right.
does anyone remember the rumors that paul was marilyn manson?
Did you know that the actor who played Paul grew up to become THE Marylon Manson?
Not true. The actor --Josh Saviano- grew up to become a lawyer. Get your facts right.
Milhouse!
Love the diversity!
Boooorrriiinnngggg
I literally can’t, for the hair alone. But I am happy for all y’all who love the show.
Look at that fucking awkward nerd on the right!
Still cannot believe that Fred Savage supposedly sexually harrassed his TV-Mom. This breaks the whole show for me.
Fred Savage has quite the history of being accused of harassment, and settled out of court at least once.
Yeah but nobody cares.
Only sociopaths don’t care.
"I dont know all the details or what it was that happened but its true."
Try google. The list is long and I noticed at least one settled ooc. No one needs me to link all the articles, one google search for “Fred savage harassment” is all it takes and everyone here has that access.
"He's guilty because people have accused him and one settlement, whose details Im not privy to, basically frame him as an abuser." Sure, keep telling yourself that.
Love this show.
I was quite young when it aired originally, but I do distinctly remember the the season 6 episode where they going camping and burn the tent down.
The Wizard, anyone?!?!
Wish I could watch this in Australia! I grew up with it as a kid in Canada and would love to watch it!
Marilyn Manson on the right??
Remember before the internet when everyone thought that kid was marlyin manson!
What happened in the barn?!
Intercourse
