Coverage Pt 1

Here is a list of things that I will be talking about, (If you are unfamiliar with any topic of mine, thats okay, think of this as a list of recommendations in that case.)

Now the great thing about watching '90s Movies, Television, or even wearing the fashion... is that it all already exists. There is no waiting time at all... If you are ever waiting for a great movie to be made or a great TV show the chances are that there is one already out there for you.

Just keep it in mind to be careful, as since there is everything there already, there is a limited amount... Your new favorite show only has a certain number of episodes and watching them all in two weeks might end up being very sad for you when there isn't anymore. I know this from personal experience.
Also, eventually you will run out of movies, etc. but re-watching is a great option if you are okay with it, you usually find new things to enjoy about things. There are a million ways to watch something!



I wont be able to mention everything I love from the nineties in one post, I would never be able to think of them all at once... but this should be a lot for now.

I will try my best to post an overview at the beginning of every week so that you(and I) know what's coming up ahead. Also, many of these topics will have many posts regarding them... I like to bask in the details.

First blog (I will post an introduction sometime soon...)

I am so in love with Party of Five. Great TV. I love early 90s teen shows, and this one is great. After falling in love with My So-Called Life (going on 6/7 years now) and Freaks and Geeks, not to mention any other good show that I really enjoy (Huge, others) that dies after just one season, I start to wonder if America really knows what good television even is. I am very glad that I have six seasons to watch. I miss the 90s and wish I were older when I had the opportunity to enjoy them. It fits more with me I guess... The whole environment, I love the music (90s alt is ALWAYS good) the style (flannel and crushed velvet dresses... and so much more, mary janes and Docs, list goes on) and the over all quality of the writing and acting. And the use of on location sets and natural lighting doesn't hurt. I will always prefer Neve Campbell and Claire Danes over anyone on today's screens. Not to mention movies like The Craft... I feel at home in the nuance. Damn, I wish so bad that things were still like that... I don't even think I would miss the Awesome power of today's internet (youtube, facebook, myspace or whatever) if I could be a young adult then... Sometimes life isn't fair and we don't get born when we should have... At least I have shows like this to give me a taste now and then.....
