80's & 90's T.V. and Movies

10/06/2026

Nothing in this world will ever beat 80s Saturday mornings. Bowl of sugary cereal the size of my head, pajamas, sitting way too close to the TV, and a lineup that was pure gold. Smurfs, Muppet Babies, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Pee-wee's Playhouse. I'd have sold my bike for one more of those mornings.

Okay, settle it in the comments: what was YOUR must-watch Saturday morning cartoon? 📺🥣

Who wouldn't want a Lamborghini?? Even if it's a lego one 😆

Every October I still think about the very first Simpsons Treehouse of Horror back in 1990, when Marge came out before the episode and warned parents it might be too scary. Naturally, every kid in America scooted closer to the TV. Which Treehouse segment lives rent-free in your head? Mine is still Homer stuck in the third dimension.

October means one thing in my house: Hocus Pocus (1993) goes on and stays on. 🎃 As a kid I was sure every black cat was secretly Thackery Binx, and I'm still a little nervous about lighting candles I don't know the history of. Which 80s or 90s Halloween movie or TV episode did you wear out every October?

Okay but hear me out — the 1991 Dark Shadows revival is streaming free on YouTube right now. Twelve episodes. Barnabas shows up before the first commercial break. I forgot how gothic and soapy and gloriously 90s that remake was. Who else got sucked back into Collinsport this week?

Okay, confession time. In 1990 my parents let me stay up for that two-night "It" miniseries on TV, and I have not looked at a storm drain the same way since. Tim Curry as Pennywise did more to shape my childhood than any teacher did. 🎈

Now that it's spooky season, tell me: what 80s or 90s TV movie or miniseries scarred YOU for life? And who else did the "just one more peek" thing through their fingers?

Okay but can we talk about Stargate SG-1 for a second?

All ten seasons are sitting free on streaming right now and I swear my brain just time-traveled straight back to after-school couch mode. Chevron seven locked. Theme song stuck. Zero regrets.

Be honest — were you Team SG-1 from day one, or did you wander in later through Atlantis/reruns and never leave?

I'll go first: once that iris closed, I was done for.

Okay but this week’s UAP file dump has me craving an X-Files binge. Mulder would be printing every PDF. Scully would be sighing. I’d be on the couch with snacks either way. Anyone else get that itch when the government drops another “unexplained” folder?

I always felt that pumpkins on the porch makes Halloween 🎃 Do you feel the same?
