Not every other TV show had the word "celebrity" in the title and "Friends" was on once a week, if you were lucky.

Bah, the 80's were completely different to the 90's. We should split this thread into 2.

The 80's... erm, Dukes of Hazard, Come On Eileen, Spangles, Sony Walkman, MTV (when it was cool), Max Headroom, Atari, Rubik's cube, Capri Sun and Tab and Dr Pepper (not together of course), and of course... Joey Deacon!

Blimey, I could go on all night. Better stop here.

Someone mentioned Grifters, but what about Choppers. Were they 80's or late-70's?
