Anyone remember "Nasty Boys"... show about Las Vegas Metro PD's Vice squad (actually called "Viper")? They drove a Lambo LM002. Obviously, Janet Jackson's Nasty Boys was the theme song.

Inspector Gadget was the only one I questionas being fully 90's? Thought maybe that one had started in the 80's. Anyway, i'm more with Jon on this one. The 80's cartoons were my thing for sure, though because of my younger sisters, I can still sing the themes to Ducktales, Darkwing and the Rescue Rangers, lol.



QUOTE
First produced as a 1/2 hour pilot in 1983, it was picked up and produced until 1986 for TV. Years later, Inspector Gadget is seen in 55 countries in 24 languages.


That's what I thought.......................

^goodness. when things are so effective, lasting, memorable and reach many ends of the world, that is called greatness. no feat today can match that.

they also forgot Bill Cosby and Family Matters, sesame street, reading rainbow just to give credit. and flintstone kids. a pup named scooby doo... i'm sure the list keeps going.

who can forget lite-brite.


HAHA you guys remember the Vincent Price Halloween commercials?!

Exosquad. Great show, great concept.



I know this is for a game, but Link's Awakening was great fun.

Holy crap I thought I was the only one who rememberer that!

Last AWA we spent all Sunday Morn (5am-8) sobering up watching Silver Hawks, MASK, TNMT, GI Joe, etc.

Cartoons > sleep





@HKC: Viper was cool for the 1st season. After that it became ghey. Though I still want the defender Viper.

Wow... this brings a tear to my eye.



Inspector Gadget was my favorite in the 80s

Super Mario Bros. of course was awesome

He-Man was the ish

Every birthday party I had/went to was Ninja Turtles themed



Pretty much everything JonGTR said, except I didn't watch MASK.







And Yes, I saw Fast Lane. She's now in "White Collar" as a supporting role, the wife of one of the main actors. Doesn't appear much, and she's still hot even though her face is a little rounder.
