...for 90s. nothing new there then. but what i'm really feeling today is 90s tv. how ace was 90s tv?? so i thought i'd share a few images of some of our beloved shows that got us through life during those years of teenage angst. from the smurfs before school (ok, not really 90s tv, but i enjoyed this every day for YEARS with my lucky charms while i heated up my school uniform by the fire!) to EVERYTHING on nickelodeon when we FINALLY got that life-changing yellow company installed in to the living room 'cable and wireless', i was defo more of an indoor kid in those days. my friends would say "wanna come play kerby in the street?", errrrr, no? sister sister vs kenan and kel is on back to back all day, all weekend! come on in!
take a few minutes to reminisce, you'll wonder what the hell happened to kids shows once the noughties reared it's weird ben ten head...

1. boy meets world. who could forget the rocky relationship between corey and topanga?! they got married when they were about 16! it was proper dead good! i loved this, i wanted to be all grown up like them. i was about 7 when i first saw this! memories
2. rugrats. thought i'd put up the theme tune to rugrats, courtesy of youtube, cos it's a real blast from the past and in this case better than putting up images! i really hated angelica! she was so shady on chuckie! ha! a tv show about babies going on adventures, just around the house or garden. hiding from dustbunnies! the creators of this show really went to town with the imagination and let us see the world in a way we had all but forgotten about. amazing

3. two of a kind. the hair, the clothes, the olsen twins! i can't even begin to explain how much i wanted to be them. and to be honest, i still feel pretty much the same about these gals! unfortunately this only ran for one season so the ongoing tension between their dad kevin and the student babysitter never materialised into anything, shame! but at least we'll always remember their love of clothes! nothing changes

4. the smurfs. yes i know, this is a cartoon from the 80s. but this was the kids cartoon that was the equivalent of a good breakfast for adults. it set me up for the day. can't really remember what they were...or what the point of them was...but still! it was moral central! plus they released smurf cd's and i had them all!

5. kenan and kel. WHYYYYY?! oh my god this was just so funny. it was a bit different in the way that it was filmed in front of a live studio audience of which the characters kenan and kel would discourse with the audience before the show began, which would always finish with kenan (knowing the tale would end up in disaster) saying 'ah here goes!' who could forget the very first episode (probably most people but for some reason it really stuck with me and i still actually laugh out loud about this now) where they try to sue the tuna company after kel chokes on a screw he found in the can, only to end in court with kel admitting "IIIIIII! DROPPED THE SCREEEEEEEEEEW! IN THE TUNA!" i have provided a clip of this moment, because it really is that funny...24 seconds, kenan's face, priceless

6. sister sister. actually my fave characters from this were ray and lisa (featured in image above, both middle, well just not the twins. it's quite obvious really...), i always wanted them to get together too! think that was the pull of 90s tv, will they won't they?! obvs not very memorable though cos i can't remember if they did ha! but i do remember when they changed the theme tune, this is when tia and tamara were getting a bit older and a bit fitter! loved the banter they had with their neighbour roger as well! hilare! he was in love with them both but they had fitter boyfriends, then one day roger turned up all grown up and dead fit! haha fit is the word of the day here...

7. sabrina the teenage witch. can't mention 90s tv without this show. salem the talking cat, the goofy but good-hearted (and quite often confused!) boyfriend harvey and the intrusive but loving auntie's! sabrina was the queen of teenage angst! homework, boys and harbouring a massive secret - she were witch! - equalled a huge headache for sabrina most of the time. i loved this programme, especially the bitchy cheerleader lydia! classic high school drama...
i really could go on forever baby! and if anyone wants to comment about their fave 90s shows please feel free to leave a message! for now it's back to 2013 and to face those january blues, but at least i can always have a quick daydream about these shows to get me through it!
