It's true, though I don't think all of the '90s are far enough away for us to be nostalgic about them yet (though the British version already did the '90s).

E! already did the 90s. I wasn't alive in the 70s or 80s so it doesn't bring back any memories for me, but we don't need a "remembering the 90s" thing yet.

I love those 2 programs. They are very nostalgic and the guests are hilarious throughout.

I watched it on BBC2, my favourite was the '70s as that was the decade of my childhood.

Its gotta be the 80's for me, I grew up in that decade so all music influences tend to stem from the New Romantics and OMD who rocked!

You just made a lot of enemies on this board, Lamp.
Not me, but others.

Nirvana was great and all.. I loved Polly. But Smells Like Teen Spirit? The anthem of a generation? It was gibberish. Was that the nonsense generation? Maybe.. Anyway, I can see little meaning in that song. Give me the middle-of-their-career Beatles any day.. On topic: The people who wanted to make I love the nineties are the people who wanted Reagan on the ten dollar bill.

Yeah, he does! And what he says about Kevorkian is really funny too...
[Professie] Oh...eh..uh..and the green button to the wire...er ah..and you die [/Professie]
I really was very amused during the "Uncut and Uncensored Billy West on: 'Ren and Stimpy'". It's really just him having a conversation with himself.

Frank Zappa said once:
I've also talked about the End of the World being a question of whether it's going to be by fire, ice, paperwork, or nostalgia. And there's a good chance that it's going to be nostalgia because the distance between the event and the nostalgia for the even has gotten shorter and shorter and shorter with each nostalgia cycle. So, projecting into the future, you could get to a point where you would take a step and be so nostalgic for that point where you would take a step and be so nostalgic for that step you just took that you would literally freeze in your tracks to experience the nostalgize of the last step, or the last word, or your last whatever. The world just comes to a halt - remembering.
I watched a few minutes of "I love the '90s" yesterday, because Billy West was on it doing Ren and Stimpy voices. It just helped me remember that the '90s really sucked, pop culture wise. And I can't watch the show at all because they put that damn dancing baby everywhere and that annoys the hell out of me. I think it's the creepiest thing I've ver seen, and it wasn't really that big of a popular icon.
Hey, remember the good old days, when there was just "I Love the '80s"? Ah, a simpler time. Hey, we should do a show about how great that was. "I love "I Love the '80s.""

"I love "I Love the '80s."" canned eggs has cracked me up and ended my depression at today's mundane-ness. thank you, eggs. I wish there was less dancing baby, Mo Rocca, and music vid flashbacks, and more Billy West having a conversation with himself. EDIT: I'm a Starship Captain! Eat it, everyone who's never been a captain, and that includes you, Amy! ------------------ My bean looks like the LesbianLeela!

I'm rather pissed that Billy West was left out during the discussion of the talking M&M's.

Hahah, eggs. I hate the baby too, and Ally Mcbeal. I always just wanted to grab her and hit some sense into that twiggy body. I was a "Lucy Lui's character" (Ling?) fan.

I love "I Love the [decade]". My favorite interviewees are Micheal Ian Black, Trey Parker, and, of course, Billy West.
But on to my opinion on "the baby":
I remember watching Ally McBeal with my mom because I couldn't sleep, and that baby came on and scared me to no end. I'd go to school, and I'd see the baby. I'd be in Church, I'd see the baby. I'd play House with my friends, I'd see the flippin' baby.
Why must they remind me of my childhood fears?!
So, yes. I hate The Dancing Baby, too.
