  • scottym, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I was born in 1975, so this was definately my decade. Thanks for the Retro fun.
    Gotta admit though, X-Entertainment does just about the same thing, and is just as fun.
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I sort of grew up in the 80's heh but I was too young to remember anything because I was born in the late 1980's.
  • dolphumous, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I stop by this site from time to time.

    Sometimes you just have to listen to the A-Team or Air Wolf theme ya know?

  • junkfood, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I think Doubledare gave away BKs.
  • joamox, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It's crazy how many people get nostalgic over so many cartoons that didn't make any sense.
  • phsalina, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Man this brings back some fond memories.
  • GrAsSmOkEr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Its does make you warm and fuzzy, hehe.
  • 2tall, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0didn't care about most of the content.. except for http://www.retrojunk.com/details_articles/133/ which talks about the FOX KIDS cartoon line up. that was probably the last time i could actually watch TV for 2 hours straight.
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0See what you did now? You got me havin' an ear-to-ear smile! lol
    Thanks for the link!!!
  • SilentSpyder, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Captain Planet was my hero. A few weeks ago when going fishing I saw some clear cutting and thought to myself "Where's Captain Planet when you need him."
  • 2tall, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0didn't care about most of the content.. except for the section about the FOX KIDS cartoon line up. that was probably the last time i could actually watch TV for 2 hours straight.
  • jumjum, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0That site's wrestling section is way off. The first WrestleMania didn't happen in 1984, it happened in 1985. The Undertaker debuted in 1991 (may have been late 90). Doink the Clown didn't debut until 1992, plus he didn't have the silly clown music until he turned face (good guy) in late 93/early 94. In fact, when Doink debuted as a heel (bad guy), his theme song would begin playing the silly clown music but changed into a deranged kind of tone into a parody of what clown music shouldn't be (being a "clown that makes children cry"). Maximillion Moon didn't debut until 1992 and the tubes on his arms shot out spider webbing stuff (Paul Diamond played this character, who also played Kato of the Orient Express), the character wasn't even a midcarder, just an attraction.
    I tried the Dr. Pepper gum in the 80s. Yes, it was horrendous, but in a way I wish it was still around.
  • ishmael5, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i think it was double dare that gave out BK shoes
  • hendoz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0For some reason the first memory this site invoked was of my bad-ass British Knights. Does anyone remember what tv show gave them to their contestants? I can almost remember but I'm drawing a blank.
  • levi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Found this a few months ago great site.
