The Czech Republic Posted August 29, 2003 Author Report Posted August 29, 2003 There's nothing to love about the 90s! I was there--it sucked. It's a decade of ignorance and apathy. You'd have to call it "I Sorta Like The 90s...I guess."
Zorin Industries Posted August 29, 2003 Report Posted August 29, 2003 Just one reason why I love the 70's
Yuna_Firerose Posted August 29, 2003 Report Posted August 29, 2003 Did they ever cover the Rocky Horror Picture Show? I watched the 75 ep. specifically because it mentioned that they'd cover it. But...they didn't.
Nevermortal Posted August 29, 2003 Report Posted August 29, 2003 There were a lot of stupid fads in the 90's. Pogs? Tomagotchis? Hypercolor shirts? Balsac Water Balls? The Virtual Boy?
Vern Gagne Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 VH1 is having a revenge of the 80's in October. It won't be too long before the 70's Strikes back is on.

Don't forget the Spice Girls.... the only good thing about that group is they made a movie in which Alan dances around in an orange mid-riff shirt...RAWR! I wonder if, during the ILT90s, or whatever it's called, they'll talk about the old X-Men cartoon.
Guest Sturgis Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 The 90's show has the following posabilities: - LA Riots - Grunge - Sega - Playstation - Wrestling - 96' Olympics - Rap - Boy Bands - Britney & Christina - Metallica's Black Album - Madonna - Micheal Jackson - Everything Others have mentioned - Plus More Did the 90's suck? Yes, but so did the 80's and they looked back and we the good things we overlooked and laughed, so trust me they can do it with the 90's

Cross Colours brand as one of the 1st hip hop clothing lines that was in the mall. Everybody was on the pro-africa colors fads.....the Red, Green, Yellow was everywhere. Rappers getting tv series on NBC and FOX.

The internet becoming avaible for everyone. That will DEFINTLEY be talked about on "I Love The 90s." Edited August 30, 2003 by Michael Joel Benoit
Nevermortal Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 Full House was such a fucking great show. I loved it. I hope they release it on DVD. How can you not love that show? Do you have a soul?
JasonX Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 There's quite a bit of material for I Love the 80's Strike Back, I wouldn't bring Michael Ian Black back cause his schtick got really old during the later episodes of I Love the 70's. In fact I don't think they covered the Michael Jackson craze on the first I Love the 80's. Jackson got his dues in the 84 episode of ILT80s with them covering the phenomena surrounding Thriller.......
JasonX Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 Great, all the '80s stuff that wasn't cheesy enough to make it the first time around. They missed a TON of stuff in the 80s series: Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th, revival of GI Joe in the series's trademark 3 1/4ths size, the launch of the NES, Metallica (why the fuck did they single out Rick fucking Ashley's Never Give You Up for the video spotlight in 1988 and not Metallica's "One"?) , Donald Trump, Bloom County, Garfield, Platoon, Full Metal Jacket, the first Batman film, Steel Magnolias (one of the first films that was outright and unashamedly marketed as being a chick flick), the Flowers in the Attic movie (which caused a big stir do to the incest theme of the books being chopped out of it), the Droids/Ewok cartoons, Transformers the Movie (which featured the controversial death of Optimus Prime, which traumatized thousands of kids), MTV reviving the Monkeys single-handedly, Risky Business, REM's "The One I Love" (VH1 shocked me that they picked the more popular and less mainstream consumed End of the World As We Know It for their REM spotlight and 87 video spotlight segment), and much, much, much more.....
godthedog Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 why the fuck did they single out Rick fucking Ashley's Never Give You Up for the video spotlight in 1988 and not Metallica's "One"? because rick astley's so much easier to make fun of.
the max Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 why the fuck did they single out Rick fucking Ashley's Never Give You Up for the video spotlight in 1988 and not Metallica's "One"? because rick astley's so much easier to make fun of. Yeah, that "I'm a whi-i-te boy, with a big ol' bla-a-ck voice!" cracked me up.
razazteca Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 I Love the 90's must have the Martha Washington, the woman with the big voice and big body that was held down because she was not one of the "beautiful people".
WrestlingDeacon Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 Martha Washington started out as a background singer for Sylvester in the late seventies and then was one half of the Weather Girls which did It's Raining Men. She was around for years before the ninties stuff where they had models lip sinching her.
Spaceman Spiff Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 They could give props to Calvin & Hobbes...
JMFabiano524 Posted September 1, 2003 Report Posted September 1, 2003 The '90s = the decade pop culture died. I pretty much like VH1's I Love The... series for the clips, but can often do without the "expert" commentary, which tends to make everything sex-related and the like. Also, I loved how they "honored" Richard Dawson as a drunk in the Family Feud clip. And hey, let's slam Ray Combs in there too while you're at it! From the same episode, there was the Gong Show, which was a little better but not immune from cluelessness. Jamie Farr, "out of work?" Hello? I think there was a little TV show in the very decade you're covering. M*A*S*H or something...
