As a late Gen X’er I grew up watching loads of fun action television shows from the 1980s, that featured lots of cool characters, hi-tech machines, exotic locations, explosions and questionable acting. Now with the availability of DVD these ‘classic’ television programs are available from the library, enabling people like myself to relive our childhoods through cult shows like MacGyver, Family Ties, Airwolf, Knight Rider, and Transformers just to name a few. What TV shows did you grow up with? And if you’ve relived them, were they as you remembered?
Off the Shelf
All things Library at City of Tea Tree Gully!
CHIPS and Chopper Squad! Am yet to relive them though…
21 Jump Street!!! The young Johnny Depp!!!
And ALF, the lovable Alien Life Form.
We need more Beverly Hills 90210!
yes for 21 Jump Street! And the spin off with Richard Greico, what was it called?
I re-lived The Goodies and it was not as good as I remembered, but I still think of Bill, Tim and Graham with a smile.
Booker! That was the show with Richard Greico. I agree with the Goodies, that wasn’t as funny the second time around.
How about Magumn PI?
