When I was growing up (in the 80s) Nick at Nite was all TV shows from the 50s. Why is it now 80s-90s stuff?

Because we are now classed as being old.  Sorry to say but it's true. The shows we grew up watching and loved are in now in rerun land and the kids are just discovering these "old" shows.  Not that they are that old.  Makes you think about what our parents feel when we watch reruns of their "old" shows, huh?

You can go to retrojunk.com. They have listings of shows from the 70's, 80's, and 90's. American and UK.

I agree with you. It shouldn't be called that anymore.\nThey barely have t.v. shows that have anything to do with music.\nI don't watch it anymore.

It's not really fair to judge this decade's music just yet.  I thought the music of the 80s sucked during the 80s but now I mostly listen to 80s music on the radio.  \n\nIn 10-15 years, we'll probably appreciate this decade's music more than we do now.

Hi, I grew up in the 80s, but I'm afraid I don't recall a show that's like the one that you gave the description of. However, here are some websites that might help you. I'm sorry I can't be more help than that. \n\nRetro Junk\nhttp://www.retrojunk.com/\n\nIn The 80s\nhttp://www.inthe80s.com/\n\n80s Cartoon Central\nhttp://80scartoons.net/\n\nI hope this helps. Good luck!!

I mean no, this is a old show that started in Sept. 1987. They started out with a bad first season and where rated bad in many magazines etc. Each time, they just prayed if they were on TV that night or not. Then in DEC. of 1987, they had a metting with teh old President of ABC and hardly conviced him to let them do the show and shoot it on ABC(Before, ABC was on;y one chanel before it split into ABC 7, abc family etc.). Then their show was on every friday and tuesday night before it went back only to tuesday night. Their succes was getting beter and beter at the time. But the reason why they stopped making new shows is because it they were out of ideass to do. And ussually there was supposed to be about one of the girls, but their ideas ran out. It lasted from 1987-1993. 6 years is a lot for such a sicomb(show). There is a low chance they will run out of buisiness because first of all they still have enough money to pay for the shows. And they will still have money for that throught the many future years becay=use these seasons are going on DVD, this gives them money to be able to pay for the viewing of it on TV and much more. Evventually in about ten years they might, unless they find another way to use get money like start making shows of all the characters now adays. I think that would be a awesome idea.

ohhh... {cringe} sid and marty krofft were going bonkers in the 70s with kid stuff like land of the lost, sigmund and the sea monsters (sorry, tomatoes only please!) and h r pufnstuf.  that alarming talking flute... what's more creepy than that?\n\nalso i remember the schoolhouse rock songs (the 1st infomercials?) on saturday mornings... "interplanetary janet she's a galaxy girl..."  and the cartoon "super friends".\n\nsomehow, we didn't care that there were only 4 channels, did we?

No, you're not the only one to notice.  The last time I turned on Nick, I was shocked at the "adult" style of comedy they had, even in the cartoons!  Personally, I miss "You Can't Do That On Television" and the morning set of shows called "Pinwheel."

YA KNOW I AM SO GLAD THAT SOMEONE ELSE WONDERS ABOUT THAT TOO. THE WALTON'S WAS A WONDERFUL FAMILY SHOW. I REALLY MISS IT . IT SHOWED SO MUCH OF WHAT A FAMILY USED TO MEAN .NOT LIKE THE NEW SHOWS. I WONDER IF THEY WILL CREATE A SHOW THAT IS JUST AS WONDERFUL AS THE WALTON'S WAS?

I grew up on that stuff!  I loved that show back in high school!  Heck yes it should be re-aired!

Because every twenty years things come back. It's syclical as the correct terms would be for it. And I completely disagree with the first idiot who answered this. I grew up in the 80's and loved it! It was a happy and simpler time and the music was great back then. Not the crap they serve up today, or in the 60's-70's we're absolute jokes.\n\nFrom the politics, all the way down to the crappy clothes and music. You kids today really missed out on a great time in our country. But it's not your fault, you didn't have a choice in the matter or know any better. But believe me, it was so much better back then. Any if you think twenty years back is old, wait till you are actually old in your 80's if you live that long and people tell you your generation is old. What goes around comes around. Long live the 80's !!!

I agree but I think the networks feel they are keeping up with times. It is sad to think that my kids today will never get to experience the classic cartoons of the past.

If and only if they keep all the same people... and I have a question... How many years was That 70's Show on for anyways? What year did it start? Did they actually go into the 80's technically anyways... (I thought it first took place in like 1973 or something like that)

Old school is much better because our new stuff mainly talks about suicide, drugs, hoes, heart-ache. Which it gets so tiring. I doesn't last as long. But old school it never gets old, for my parents it takes them down memory lane.
