I love 80's pop culture. My fave. Punk, hardcore, synth pop, electro, thrash, etc. really blossomed. Fluorescent. Pastel. Geometric.

The 90's and 2000's were totally lame in terms of pop culture.

I am biased because I lived the 80's. But the 90's and 2000's just can't compare.

---------- ABOUT THE TV SHOW
Back on topic: I saw a few episodes when it originally aired. It was fun. As with all of these shows, the folks making commentary did not necessarily have anything insightful/authentic to say...but rather make jokes. Which is fine, but it would have been nice if the show's producers found some folks who could actually talk about their genuine experiences, too.

I remember that the best part of the show were the conversations it started with family and friends. :)

It was fun to watch when it first aired, but also kinda annoying due to how fake it is. You listen to some comedian make some jokes about how he reacted to something Michael Jackson did or some toy or sitcom, and they are sometimes funny jokes, but then you do the math and realize this comedian was two years old when the incident happened.

Now it's 2015, I can watch compilations of 80s commercials on YouTube and make my own jokes.

Danger Mouse was massive here in the UK in the 80s. Count Duckula from the same animators was also popular.
They're relaunching a brand new Danger Mouse cartoon, I saw my kids watching the trailer for it the other day.

I wonder if Nickolodean aired Count Duckuka, too. It sounds familiar.
