Xer Ping

Ping list for the discussion of the politics and social (and sometimes nostalgic) aspects that directly effects Generation Reagan / Generation-X (Those born from 1965-1981) including all the spending previous generations are doing that Gen-X and Y will end up paying for.

Freep mail me to be added or dropped. See my home page for details and previous articles.

“Moonlight” on CBS sure looks an awful lot like the old “Forever Knight” from the 80s (about a vampire cop in Canada)

When are they going to re-make the A-team?

I see Rambo is coming out in theaters. Has Stallone been digitally remastered?

The 80s ruled in every way.

Better music:

Compare Motley Crue to any of that modern “metal.” Compare Tone Loc to modern Hip Hop.

Better movies:

“Real Genius” vs. “American Pie.” Pulleeze. “Superman IV” vs. “The Fantastic Four.”

Better sitcoms:

“Who’s the Boss” compared to “Insert Generic Reality Show Here.”

Better TV Babes: Alyssa Milano vs. Debra Messing...

Better supermodels. Christie Brinkley compared to...no one. She compares to no one!

And lest we forget: Better politicians.

Ronald Reagan vs...Bush. Love ya W, but you’re NO Reagan. In no way, shape or form.

More evidence that they are just totally out of ideas. How long before the Bionic Woman takes on a corporation that’s destroying the environment?

One of our local stations just started showing “Happy Days,” “Laverne and Shirley,” and “Mork & Mindy” re-runs. I was 3 when HD started, but each episode of each show we’ve seen is funnier than any sitcoms we’ve seen lately.

We tried “Til Death”, and “Back to You,” but they got old fast. I just hope “Life” survives the strike. I love that show.

I’ll stick with reruns of original Bonanza.

The Bionic Woman wasn’t from the 80’s.

On an episode of Fox’s “Bones” Emily Deschanel was dressed in a Wonder Woman outfit for Halloween. She looked every bit as hot as Lynda Carter did in the original.

Primetime Network TV Schedule.

WOW! That brings back some memories.

Friday nights = CBS = Dukes of Hazzard, Dallas, Falcon Crest
Thursday nights = Magnum PI, Simon & Simon, Knotts Landing.

I’m waiting for “Saved By The Bell” and “CHIPS”.

Well, you take the good...you take the bad...you take them both, and there you have...80s TV shows. ;-)

With a few exceptions, I hated 80s tv even back in the 80s. In fact, bad 80s tv is what hooked me on Nick@Nite as a teen in the 80s.

However, the Bionic Woman wasn't 80s tv...it was 70s tv. Since I loved it so much as a kid, I gave the new one a chance. I really wanted to like it, but just couldn't get into it.

As long as they leave “The Fall Guy” alone.
