I Love The 80's: 1980 (2002)

Ahhh.1980. On the cusp between the 70's and the 80's, the year 1980 sometimes feels like the odd man out. Not a disco queen, not yet a yuppie. But don't be fooled - 1980 has a lot to offer. What other year gave birth to Post-It Notes, CNN and today's diva in training Christina Aguilera? Not 1984, I can tell you that. 1980, do that to me one more time. Once is never enough. With a.oh, you get the picture.

I Love The 80's: 1981 (2002)

While 1980 kicked off a brand new decade, 1981 was truly the year of birth. Everything from a new presidency to music television took shape within the twelve months that made 1981 a year featuring romance, transition, and a White House full of jellybeans.

I Love The 80's: 1982 (2002)

No year epitomized the 80's more than 1982, and yes, you did dress like that. Fast, plugged in, and embarrassing, this is a year you can't forget; no matter how hard you try. As the third episode of the series, I Love The 80's 1982 will saturate the audience with vivid flashbacks of colorful people, defining moments, and mortifying fads that make people fondly remember their youth, and sometimes even blush.

I Love The 80's: 1983 (2002)

The "like, totally gnarly". I mean "tubular" year that let us know that Michael Jackson was "not like other guys" introduced us to Tony Montana's (Al Pacino) "little friend" finally let us know that it was ok to be black and Miss America but not ok to get naked for Bob Guccione at the same time. There were those who just had to "adopt" the latest dolly.those who begged us to "Just Say No" and those who simply wanted to be "gagged with a spoon". 1983 also helped us to finally bury the disco, I mean Travolta's Stayin' Alive was the coffin's final nail.No? Disco R.I.P. We made fun of the preppie, gave up the 3D movie, cross-dressed on TV, started falling for Madonna.and her publicity stunts, and all the while we had the pleasure of looking down the road to what some thought might be the future according to George Orwell, 1984.

I Love The 80's: 1984 (2002)

So..."Where's the beef?" In 1984. Arguably the greatest pop culture year of the decade, and maybe ever! From Film, to TV, to Music, 1984 delivered. Not only did it introduce us to some of music's most enduring artists (Madonna & Prince), but a few endearing one hit wonders (Corey Hart ring a bell?) as well as some surprise classics (Footloose, Miami Vice, "Girls Just Want To Have Fun").
