Married With Children



Married with Children was a television show ,on FOX, about a very disfunctional family. Al Bundy was the father. He was a sleazy shoe salesman who never wanted to have sex with his wife. His wife Peg was sat at home and ate bon bons all day. His son Bud was a horny little creep that was always trying to get with girls. Last ,but not least, his daughter Kelly was a airhead.



The show was quite humerous and never turned serious. The additon of side characters such as the neighbors and Al's friends from the shoe store added flavor.

Sixteen Candles




Sixteen Candles is a about Samantha "Sam" Baker (Molly Ringwald), a sophomore in high school, and her life as a high school student. She's totally in love with JAKE RYAN, the hot senior stud of the school . Sam's older sister is getting married and in all the chaos her family forgets her 16th birthday. Anthony Micheal Hall plays a nerdy freshman. His goal is to impress his friends and get some action. Sam and The Geek are the main characters of the movie. * John Cusack makes an appearance. I think everyone kind can enjoy this movie because everybody went to high school, for the most part.

The Wonder Years


The Wonders Years prepared me for post elementary school life!!! I watched it religiously from 3rd grade to 5th grade. The show is about a kid named Kevin Arnold living during the 1960s/70s. He lives in the suburbs with his brother Wayne, sister Karen, and two parents Jack and Norma. He also has a best friend named Kevin and a crush on the girl across the street named Winnie. The show followed Kevin from his first day in 7th grade to middle of the summer after his junior year in high school. The show covers family problems, to friendship problems and of course young "love". I could write for days about how much I love this show but i'll spare you all that experience.


One of my favorite moments of the show is when a girl named Kevin breaks up with a girl named Becky Slater and she punches him. Kevin goes down for the count. I just remember saying that I need to avoid that at all costs.




*Yo, this was Boy Meets World before Boy Meets World was on. The star of Boy Meets World, Ben Savage, is also the younger brother of the star of The Wonder Years, Fred Savage.

Doug




I think everybody that was a little kid in the 90s loved Doug. It was the first Nick Toon made(a special cartoon made by Nick). It's about a 5th grader named Doug Funny who lives in Bluffington. His best friend is Skeeter a green guy, who I always thought was supposed to portray a black person. Much of the show revolves around Doug's crush Patty Mayonnaise. The show deals with the usual issues of bullies, love, friendship and family.

A second version of Doug came out in the mid 90s called "Brand Spankin New Doug". It was created by Disney. There were mixed feelings about this version because they made changes to the original.


I loved and still love this show. The original show a bit more risque in storyline. Which Doug was better the original or the newer one?


This clip is definitely is a tape over of Doug. Thought is was hilarious. NOT THE REAL EPISODE.
