I Love The 80s was so much more funnier.

BEWARE: English Teachers!!
 

Oh dear. LOL

I watched the show last night...and even tho I wasn't born until '76, I do remember some of the stuff they talked about, just from my cousins having that stuff in their playrooms...years later. LOL Weebles...yep, had those.

Stevie is the hot chick of 1977. If you look at VH1.com and under 1977, you can see her pic ( from Tusk era though!)

Thanks for the heads up! I will be watching. I have seen 1970 and my birth year 71, and have to say I like the 80's show alot better. But I did find myself laughing out loud at all the older commercials and games we used to have.
Can anyone believe that we used to play with lightbright and never choked to death? lol.....
And I loved weebles...now I am waiting for the sit and spin, or shall I say sit and puke! :)

Onward to 77,
Tamara :wavey:

I watched it last night, I thought it was pretty funny! :laugh: And I wasn't even born till 1981~ so I remember very little about the 70's :laugh:

1977 is on Thursday night! Whoo hoo! Do you think they may mention FM in 1975/6 because of the whole Rhiannon thing? :confused:

PS. Janet-- Lindsey is one of the hunks of 1977 too! :)

I think I would be more excited if I knew for sure that they were going to be on one of the shows. Of course, I can't see how the hell VH1 could NOT mention them in reference to the 70's, but then I could not believe that Stevie wasn't in the top 200 pop icons. Their lists have turned to crap, so I am not holding out hope.

That being said, of course, I am still gonna watch it just in case! :laugh:

Lindsey is the Macho Man of '77 heh

Not Lindsey... Lindsay
When are people going to get it right?!? :mad:
You'd think a channel/website that specializes (I use that word loosely) in music would be able to get the correct spelling!

hahahahahahaha!!! you're not kidding!!! i never had one nor did i want one.

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

i saw the 1970 and 1971 shows monday night and i thought they were great! i taped 1972 last night but missed 1973. i was born in 1970 and i remember a LOT of that stuff....it's so weird...it's such a different era....plus when you were a kid then it almost seems like you were in fantasy land looking back on all of it....i remember being a Mister Rogers and Electric Company junkie....i absolutely love the 70's! Everything looks so primitive to us now right? What's scary is that in 30 years everything now is going to look primitive.

Oh, and i totally had the game Operation...never had Lite Brite....always wanted it though.

:cool:

I was born in Dec. of '74 but I still rememeber Litle Brite! I thought it was AWESOME! Same for Shrinky Dinks, E-Z bake ovens and Operation, lol. Then again I had an older sister born in 1970 so a lot of it was her castoffs! lol

Tonights the night!!
 

Just a reminder...tonight is 1976 (my birth year!) and 1977 (Rumours birth year!! LOL)!!

Watch for the Hunk and Babe of 1977!! YAY!! :D

I had, like, three sit and spins! My HR Pufnstuf one was my favorite. But then when it broke, it was replaced with a Smurf one. Things were never the same...:(

VH1's little panel of commentary people I find rather annoying. Who the hell are these people anyways? They suck!

The show isn't that bad, but I just cannot stand these people, whoever the hell they are. I hate when all these quasi-celebrity people get on TV shows and think their opinions on things are funny or important. Like that Steven Cockajoojoo guy. What the hell is he besides a major irritant? He's famous for nothing.

Oh well, the show is somewhat watchable but I'm not going to make an effort to catch the rest of them. It's passable junk TV.

I think they're hilarious! I LOVE Mo Rocca!! He is absolutely hysterical. And Hal Sparks is very funny, too.

I don't think that they act like their opinions matter, they're just doing what they're supposed to do: talk about a certain era that they have fond memories of. It wouldn't be the same without the panelists they have.

Another round of I Love the 80s is coming in October, folks! :D

OK - so Stevie is a "foxy lady" of 1977

Lindsey is a "macho man" of 1977 ("Stevie's macho man", that is! - LOL)

Where the hell is Rumours?!?

I don't know why I even bother with these damn lists anymore - it just disappoints me.

How can you mention Debbie Boone and not the Mac? Who are these people that make up these lists anyway?

Hunk!!
 

That picture they used of Lindsey....those eyes!! Mesmerizing! WOW!!!

But, um....they had already broken up in '77...how can he be Stevie Nicks' hunk? LOL Heck, who am I kidding...VH-1 probably thinks they were married. :rolleyes:

NO RUMOURS?!?!?!?! WTF?! Debbie Boone and the Sex Pistols get mentioned, but no Rumours?! VH! smokes too much cheap crack. They must've not heard crack is whack.

They did use two Lindsey pictures, though. Macho Man of '77 and...his hairy chest for the follicle fad of '77. You know you're a die-hard fan when you can spot his chest hair formation out of a line-up. :laugh:

I am so glad I am not the only one who recognized Lindsey's chest hair.

*raises her hand meekly* I recognized his chest hair too! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: you're not alone!

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

LMAO!

We sure are some sick bastards! :D

One question though:

If I hadn't have said anything, would you guys have had the gall to speak up?! :laugh:

Oh yes, yes we are. (Starts club)

I was about to, lmao. I was going thru my pics and picking out the ones where Linds is in those low-cut shirts. But then AOL effed up, story of my life.

I recognized him instantly when I saw that oh-so-rad velvet sports jacket. :laugh:

LMAO. I loooovesss me some velvet jacket Lindsey. Oooer.

I soo recognized the chest hair... my family looked at me puzzled when I began laughing while seeing it.

LMAO. I jumped off of the friggin couch and screamed "OH MY GAWD! THAT'S LINDSEY!" and my mom just looks at me like, "What the hell is her problem?!"

I think it was this pic (not sure, 'cause it went by so fast):

http://www.buckinghamnicks.net/bn/images/grandtime.jpg

Yup, it was!

1977!!!
 

:eek: Ahhhhhhh Yesssss!!! :cool:My heart
skipped a beat when my eyes saw
that sexy hairy chest!!!:laugh: LINDSEY!

Remember kids...Stevie Brags about how
SHE DUMPED Lindsey...she says so on TV!;)

Re: 1977!!!
 

Nancy, thanks for posting that picture for reference! I think that was the exact photo!!!! :nod:

Re: Hunk!!
 

And the pic they used wasn't even taken in '77. It was taken at the Grammys in February 1978!

Those pics of Stevie - one was Tusk era and the other one was very Wild Heart-ish looking to me.

And shame on VH1 for not mentioning Rumours....

especially since it was number 1 for like 31 weeks or so... more than half a year!

I thought it was kind of annoying watching the time tick away waiting for a Rumours section when they put on Abba for 10 minutes or whatever! I was like, "Okay, Abba, Debbie Boone, Sex Pistols, where is Fleetwood Mac???"

Shamus:)

You know what else annoys me? In like 5 of the segments they use Blondie songs, Heart of Glass, One Way or Another..., and don't even mention Blondie at all in the series. That just irks me.
