I remember when they moved Boy Meets World to 9:30, and they fired shots at the network in one of the episodes:youngsabo: And, when moms got Cable in 96, and I discovered Snick:ahh:, it was equivalent to accidentallly finding the Spice Channel for the first time:banderas: We 90s kid is the last GOAT generation:blessed:

Old people watched that shyt too, that's the demo they wanted though. Also back then 15 and 16 year olds still stayed in the house. Sounds strange now but times were much different then.

Yeah, maybe it was for the best. shyt was wild hectic back in the days. Crazy how much quality programming the 90s had.

Dude, I was JUST thinking about that. Maybe one of the reasons they had that programming built like that was to keep a lot of people off the streets since a lot of major cities were like the wild wild west at the time

It curbed crime and produced mad classics at the same time. Thing is, when the mid 00s came around and reality TV was common, more people went outside again since shyt got cleaned up. TGIF was piff back in the day and it made Friday nights worth watching.

Yeah, now everyone goes to the bars and clubs on Fridays and Saturdays like church. Mondays-Thursdays have the highest TV ratings now.

something like TGIF COULD come back once millennials across the board start raising families and hit their 30s. TGIF really thrived because baby boomers were of the age where they were raising families, buying houses and growing up and generation x happened to tune in too

Good luck to that. Most people of Gen Y still don't want a family or to settle down.
