Those Were The Days

Greetings, TV Friends! This week we tackled the TGIF juggernaut that was Boy Meets World. The somewhat modernized and far less dramatic version of The Wonder Years, starring Fred Savage's younger brother Ben Savage. This show covered all kinds of essential topics mandated by coming-of-age tales of boyhood including girls! Girls! And more girls? Yeah, there was a lot of that. But among that was a lot of heart and some pretty intense lessons were learned along the way. Did you enjoy it! Let us know! Next week, we're kicking off 80s cartoons with a wild one!

We go to a fairly recent classic show in this episode as we cover The Drew Carey Show! Drew Carey rose to prominence on the standup circuit in the early 90s and brings his oddball view of the world to this late 90s sitcom. Famous for some of its more ridiculous storylines and willingness to break the rules, this show was frequently in the top 30 shows on broadcast television during its run. This is as special Halloween episode featuring not one, but TWO guest stars: Henry Winkler and Charlie Fleischer! It's jam packed with laughs and we hope you enjoy it.Next week, Amy takes us to TVs first creep family, The Addams Family!

On this episode of Those Were The Days, we go back to the late 80's and early 90's with Night Court! This sitcom, all about a group of people working a late shift at a courthouse, carried on some of our favorite traditions from sitcoms at the time. Grab an amazing ensemble cast and throw them into a setting that lends itself to madcap situations where anything can happen.

We travel to the distant future this week with one of our favorite all time cartoons, Futurama! Probably one of the newest old things that we've ever covered, and we had a great time discussing what made this show so much fun.

The crew heads to San Francisco this week with a look at TGIF stalwart, Full House! A widower and his two friends try to raise three girls of varying ages while under the same roof. There was always going to be a lot of chaos, and this episode is no slouch on that! We dug into what makes this show so great and why we were all hooked on it as it became such a cultural phenomenon of the early 90's. It really is a relic of a simpler time in television. Next week!

This week, Stephen navigates the complex humor and social dynamics of "All in the Family" with the episode "Lionel's Engagement." The episode brilliantly showcases the series' knack for addressing racial and societal issues through the personal lens of the Bunkers and the Jeffersons. As Lionel Jefferson announces his engagement, the episode delves into the nuances of acceptance and prejudice, seen especially through Archie Bunker's awkward interactions and missteps. Join Stephen, Amy, TVsTravis, and Audie on "Those Were The Days" as they unpack the episode's layered humor, the cultural reflections of the 1970s, and how it challenges its characters (and viewers) to confront their biases. Tune in for a rich analysis of how comedy was used as a tool to mirror and possibly shift societal perspectives, making "Lionel's Engagement" a critical episode in the sitcom's legendary run.Next Week! Amy wants you to watch Full House - S3E20 - Honey, I broke the house. Available to stream on Hulu and MaxDon't forget to pre-order Achewillow: Book 1!
