Old shows and Nostalgia

Are any of you collectors of older tv shows? The other day I bought two seasons of an old show I grew up with in the 90s and my mom and I had good time watching it. Nostalgia is rather potent.

I don't collect older tv shows or sitcoms but i do wish they would bring back shows that had good wholesome life lessons at the end of them. Most of the recent ones i have seen are kind of empty in wholesome content.

Which ones did you watch? My sisters and I LOVE watching shows and movies that we grew up with. We were recently talking about 3 Ninjas, Free Willy and Monkey Trouble.

Are you afraid of the Dark season 3 and 4. I have to say most are good fun but some go a tad too far scare wise 😳 lol. My favorite ones are the ones with a moral lesson.

Those were too scary for me! 😂 We loved Family Matters, Full House and Fresh Prince

Family Matters was one of my faves

Urkel!!

I loved Are You Afraid Of The Dark. Looking back, it was indeed pretty scary for a kids show. But it was still a great show to grow up on and reminisce about.


I don't own any shows on DVD, but I definitely know about the nostalgia you mention. Watching old school Nickelodeon and old school Cartoon Network....those were the good old days. Good memories to have for sure.

Some shows do bring on nostalgia. I do collect some shows so I can re-watch whenever and watch some with my dad or brother. Don’t really watch the new shows anymore (a few eps of maybe 2 series most recently, one of which ended already, that I can think of and that was last year so nothing currently). Of the ones mentioned so far, I used to watch I Dream of Jeannie, Friends, Family Matters, Full House, Fresh Prince, Goosebumps (that used to be my favorite book series in elementary and I did watch some eps). Can’t remember if I saw Are You Afraid of the Dark or not but the title sounds familiar so probably.

I never had cable tv, so I only saw the Nickelodeon or Cartoon Network shows when we went on vacation at my relatives’ houses. I used to love The Powerpuff Girls. Most of my cartoons were on Saturday mornings and the most memorable apart from Winnie the Pooh and Animaniacs I think was Recess. I loved Recess. A little younger and I remember looking forward to Arthur. Some non-cartoon nostalgic shows I used to watch include Sister Sister, Boy Meets World, Even Stevens, Lizzie McGuire, Malcolm in the Middle, and The Nanny. I’m sure there are a ton more, but those are some that come to mind.

I also grew up in the 90s, but I also like discovering new “old” shows. Some of my favorite ones include Bonanza, The Big Valley, The Partridge Family, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (the show, which is very different from the movie), Little House on the Praire, Charles in Charge, and the 1980s MacGyver (I will never watch the new one, that is not the true MacGyver lol).

I didn't get into older shows till I was older. I'm a big Goosebumps fan it inspires my writing and artwork and is the reason why read so much. I didn't like reading until I started reading them.
