Loved the Power Rangers moment during '93.

Amy Jo Johnson is still hot!

Puerto Rican power ranger.

I will say this: I'm loooooving the background music. Happy Mondays, Run-DMC, Jesus Jones, TMBG, Soup Dragons, Teenage Fanclub, Matthew Sweet, Cypress Hill, Primus, Beastie Boys, etc.

I feel like one of those aging hippies pining for the days when music was good.

And Susan Powter - Eeeeeewwwwwwwww!

They leave out a ton of good stuff....sometimes it just seems like they include pop culture things that are easy to mock. They devote an entire 5 or so minutes discussing the relevance of slap bracelets, but don't even mention Macauley Culkin or Home Alone. He was one of the biggest child stars ever and the film one of the most successful (and funny) family comedies. Same with '91....Gerardo is relevant but not a thing on Terminator 2?

I spent my years 8-18 during the 90s, so I have a lot of great memories of the decade (especially the first half). I loved the majority of previous 3 series. I'm not bashing this new series, but they really do skim over the years. And no, I don't mean they should talk in depth about the Gulf War or anything political....I know this is VH1 and it's a pop culture show. But weren't there more memorable things from 90-91 to discuss than Michael Bolton's hair? Then again, I guess the previous series skimmed over a ton, too, so I'll just quit whining now

I did love when Trey Parker made fun of Eddie Vedder Just the facial expressions had me cracking up. Nice to see Jaleel White again, too.

I imagine it's a nightmare trying to acquire licenses for all of the TV, movie, and music clips. Cost could be a factor. Also, I wouldn't be surprised if some companies turn VH1 down because of all of the mocking - kinda like when Warner Bros. nixed the South Park commentaries because Matt and Trey dogged "Contact."

when are they gonna show beavis and butthead or did they?

Hal Sparks certainly is homosexy.

They're just setting it up for a I Love the 90s Strike Back in a few months

Did anyone notice Waldo briefly during a shot of fires in the segment about Waco?

I worked with the people putting this show together and I can tell you why they include some stuff and exclude others. The producers sent out a huge list of the topics to the talent (Hal Sparks, Trey Parker, etc.) and the talent decides what they want to talk about. There was TONS of stuff on the list that never makes it on the air, because I think people tend to gravitate to the stuff that's easy to make fun of. The producers then select topics based on what they have the most (or funniest) footage of the talent talking about.

According to an article I read a follow up (I Love The 90's Strikes Back?) is already in the planning stages.

She was on? Great, now I'm going to have to watch this crap.
Oh well, bring on the McLean burgers and Zima.

If you didn't expect that coming then you really have to wonder. I mean it's pretty clear that VH1 will squeeze all they can out of each decade and if they used all their material this time around it would be a bitch to get through each year in one hour episodes, but most of all you need to save a lot for the second time around.

I'm sure the source material is another factor. Why should MTV bother feeding Beavis and butthead to VH1.. though they did have Real World 1 on the show. hmmm. perhaps time will tell. I spent age 10-20 in this decade so I also have a lot of memories of the times and I feel they are covering it pretty damn good so far.

incidentally, I noticed a few things in the program descriptions for each show that didn;t get talked about. For example, the guide on my ReplayTV mentioned George Michael's "Freedom '90" in the description of the 1990 show, and Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch and T2: Judgement Day in the 1991 description, none of which were talked about in their respective shows. Very odd.

I've noticed that with TiVO's descriptions during I Love The '70s and I Love The '80s: Strike Back.

I really enjoyed I Love the 80's and thought I love the 70's was ok, but I haven't found I love the 90's to be funny at all. I think I chuckled like twice.

It just doesn't seem like they have a diverse enough group of people to comment on stuff this go round. I know Mike Black, Hal Sparks, and Mo Rocca are the main dudes but they could spread the wealth a little better. Also while 80's and 70's talked about things both good and bad, 90's seems to be focusing only on the mockable. Maybe it will get better.

And yes, Monnie Love has got to go.

Really? I think this is a more diverse group actually. I see Greg Grunberg from Alias, Dom Monaghan from LOTR, some NFL players, Kerr Smith from Dawson's Creek was on for a bit, Ian Ziering and some others that I can't remember right now.

Waldo was in every segment after they did the where's Waldo. It was funny and kind of scary !

I know I'm tired of seeing that stupid dancing baby. I laughed yesterday when they had that guy from 'boys in the hood' shooting people in other segments.

If they would just get rid of the dancing baby, the whole series would be more enjoyable

But, I'm loving it so far. I'm glad they talked about Crystal Pepsi!

Agreed on both counts. I'm pretty surprised that Moe Rocca and Michael Ian Black actually drank that shit.

Yeah, I misspoke. That was funny.

How in the hell did Salt N Pepa get on the show?
@ Ace of Base using the same beat, I never noticed that until now

There is just something too funny about someone hating on a much overused image who names himself after a much overused phrase.

I can't believe they skipped Friends. That came out in 94. They spent all that time on John Tesh and no Friends segment.
