I'm sure that won't be a problem. Every time I turn on VH1 they are showing it!

how could you be surprised? this is 'i love the 90s'. it is supposed to be a fun time of remembering the decade. we are looking back and laughing at everything. they can't mention Columbine on a show like that. it would change the whole mood and be kinda direspectful of those who went through it. we can joke about Marilyn and the silly people that wore trench coats. but Columbine? come on, lets think about what we are saying people.

my 2 cents

Perhaps this is why Kurt Cobain's suicide wasn't mentioned? **shrugs**

I am glad they are putting out a part deux because even some of the funny stuff was missing.

What about the Beavis and Butthead movie??? Titanic??? And since we are on the topic of part deux... Hot Shots?

My husband and I watched/taped/watched most of it on Saturday, then caught 1992, 1995, and 1999 yesterday. Dorks that we are, we forgot to watch the first 20 minutes of 1991. I can probably tape it on Wednesday when they rerun the whole thing AGAIN.

One question-- what's the name/artist of the song that they sometimes had during the end credits-- "come on, come on, come on down and dance with me"? We were both loving the beat and the chord progression, and we hadn't heard it before.

(We never watch MTV or VH1 except for these specials...)

I love the 90's, part deux starts tonight! They're going to have an episode every night this week at 9.

I think that they slipped up. Yesterday I saw I love 1990. I though it was funny. I can't wait to see the rest of the shows.

I watched last night. These shows are a lot better when you watch it in a big group of people.

I didn't remember the show "Cop Rock" though. My boyfriend remembered it... but no one else did.


ETA: I *HEART* Hal Sparks! He's my favorite!

VH1 has stuff besides this? I thought they were changing their name to the Snarky Pop Culture Commentary Channel.

Tonight is the 1993 episode. I was thrilled to see Rob Paulsen (voice of Yakko Warner and Pinky) on during the Animaniacs/Pinky and the Brain segment. "Narf!"

I saw the 1991 and 1993 episodes.

Both great.

Seeing the Video of Anthrax and Public Enemy doing "Bring the Noise" was great.

You know, looking solely at my high school yearbook from 1995, I think, "How did I EVER let myself out of the house looking like that? I looked like complete crap."

Then, I watch the 1995 episode and I feel SO much better about my sophomore/junior year! I wasn't the only one in fashion hell. It was actually in style!?!

Funny stuff.

And yes Sandy, I, too feel depressed that OPP came out that long ago.

It's all about 1994. I forgot all about Michael Fay. I had to find out what he was up too!

[chideltjen]

We caught '94 and '95 last night. My boyfriend and his roommate are big Matrix fans and were SHOCKED that Carrie Ann Moss was on Models Inc. I completely forgot about that show. I used to watch it with my mom as a kid. Right after Melrose Place. And then Pricilla, Queen of the Desert wasn't what I thought it was. And to have Hugo Weaving show up on screen... freaky.

And all the things that I complained about them leaving out last time around have suddenly shown up in these episodes. Vh1 seems to get it right the second time around, it seems.

I still want to be like Jennie Garth.

I wish FX would bring back the 90210 reruns. I'm having withdrawals.
