    They were not good shows, but I couldn't stop watching them.

    Wasn't Teen Angel the one about the kid who died from eating a sandwich he found under a bed? The thing I really remember about that episode was when the guy was talking about how attractive he found the Hanson siblings and then freaking out when he found out that they were boys.

    I don't really remember anything about Teen Angel. Just the vaguest idea.

    The only thing I remember about Teen Angel is that it didn't last very long. Like, not even a full season.

    I remember whenever we'd drive to visit my aunt and uncle in another state. My sisters and I used to get so mad we'd miss TGIF, so my cousins would record it for us and we'd watch it when we got there.

    In hindsight, I'm surprised my parents didn't smother us for being douchey kids.

    I remember a bit of Teen Angel.

    There were twins and they said things like

    NICE PLAY, SHAKESPEARE.

    SMOOTH MOVE, EX-LAX.

    the best tgif lineup was family matters, boy meets world, step by step, and hangin with mr. cooper

    just like the best disney afternoon lineup was ducktales, rescue rangers, talespin, and darkwing duck

    I want to say I remember Brother's Keeper pretty well. Didn't it have the kid from Home Alone 3? Or someone who looked like him. And he was friends with this little girls and her mom and his dad had all this sexual tension and the dad lived with his brother for some reason.

    In retrospect, it might have been the 90's version of 2 1/2 Men.

    lostwords is a wise man.

    Thought a TGIF all star lineup would be Perfect Strangers, Boy Meets World, Dinosaurs, and a tie between 8 Simple Rules and Hangin with Mr. Cooper.

    Edit: I forgot about that Two of a Kind show with the Olsen twins and the hot redhead

    I do love John Ritter. I wasn't in love with the show but he was always fantastic.

    It was really sad when he died.

    8 Simple Rules was actually a pretty good show before John Ritter died.

    Actually the episodes after he died were nice too. The early episodes made me laugh out loud a few times.

    It got a little complicated and weird the longer the show went on after his death though.

    Yeah the ones immediately after with the family coping with Paul's death were the nice ones. When David Spade and James Garner started having wacky adventures is when I realized the show needed to end.

    I think the only thing my parents tried to stop me from watching was Ren & Stimpy and South Park.

    I remember watching my first episode of South Park in fifth grade when I was over at someone else's house.


    I was such a rebel.

    I censored myself as a kid. I would end friendships if they mentioned liking something that was not to be liked. Such as rock music

    then my oldest brother listened to guano apes one day and I was like b-but...he isn't evil how can this be?! It changed me! No longer is shania twain the hardest music I own. No longer is will smith gettin jiggy with it the most gangster track there is

    These two and Simpsons.

    I'm not sure whether they are aware of how much South Park I've watched by now.

    My father would watch The Simpsons with us.

    Although not part of TGIF, I enjoyed watching Joan of Arcadia on Friday nights. The first season was really good, but the second season got kinda weird.

    Junior year of college, I remember getting back to my room after classes around noon, thinking "Alright, grab something quick to eat, watch a little TV, then get shit done" only to find out that there was a Joan of Arcadia marathon on Sci-Fi (Now Syphi). No shit got done that afternoon.

    I wanted to have a friend with a ladder who would come hang out with me. All I ever got was old men in rickety vans that kept promising me their candy.

    Every show should have people dying from food they found under someone's bed.

    More people need to know about the dangers of this.

    Addendum: I would've hit the Hanson siblings if they were of legal age at the time the pictures were taken.
