I've been trying to finally go through Mad Men. I just finished Season 1, and the finale has a scene that's absolutely perfect for this thread: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suRDUFpsHus

Will say though, it was a pretty progressive show, letting Staci Keanan play as a linebacker and all. I can see where you might think it was a '90s show.

The 90s effectively wrapped up with this kitschy nugget (Tal Bachman - She's so high above me). I can't believe I heard it playing over the radio just recently, but it hasn't aged all that bad compared to some other 90s music. Though, you could tell the 90s were already wearing thin when this was released What's a 90s thread without some backstreet boys? I think this piece was released towards the end but it's 90s as ever. I think they used the same set as that 1995 Casper movie (which is still amazing  ).

Does anyone remember a lab set that was used to make really nasty food? It was kind of like an easy bake oven for boys to make gross treats, like flavored warts and other nasty crap. I could have sworn is was called something like "Dr. Strange" but Google isn't coming up with anything. DrKrankenwagen has a new favorite as of 00:41 on May 21, 2012 |

Adamski & Seal: Killer You know, this is a great song and all, but the video is amazing in how utterly fixed it is to what was considered "cool" in 1990. Special note should be given to Adamski's pimp-coat and sideways cap, Seal's spandex jumpsuit (reminiscent of Barry Bostwick in Megaforce) and short-dreadlocks look, and the CGI tap dance. I bet Seal pretends this doesn't exist. edit: I have to emphasize that this is a great song. Bulgaroktonos has a new favorite as of 00:59 on May 21, 2012 |

Blink 182 was so late 90s that it felt like the late 90s themselves had somehow coalesced and become a band. (I guess 2000 was really their biggest year, but it was that part of 2000 when people weren't yet aware that the 90s had ended.)

That reminds of going to see the Star Wars special editions in '97. It was my first time seeing Star Wars in a movie theater, and it's strange to think how fresh and exciting that used to be.

ALEX TRILLTON posted:Anyone remember Jellyfish? They never made it but they're basically as 90's as humanly possible. Jellyfish is one of my favorite bands ever. I even own the "Fanclub" box set. They never made it as a band, really but their former members have done a ton of cool stuff since then. Check out Imperial Drag, the best 70s glam band to come out of the 90s.

Man, look at all you scrubs with your BSC and your Rockett. The COOL girls were reading and playing with THESE    I spent every CENT of allowance, every bit of birthday or Christmas money I had on the books. I ended up totally scoring and finding four of the Kirsten books, the first Samantha book, and one of the Molly books at the thrift store all in one go. Cost me $5 for all of them because someone had marked in the corner of each cover with a blue colored pencil (which an artgum eraser got rid of). However, those loving dolls were prohibitively expensive. $116 for the doll, her outfit, and her first book (that's including shipping) was WAY too much for any non-rich elementary school girl. I ended up getting my Kirsten doll as my 6th grade graduation gift. I still have her, and my parents even agreed to pay to have her leg put back on and a new head put on (since I trashed the hair on it) so that I can keep it as an heirloom. Of course, there was always that ONE girl who was super rich and had all of the dolls, all of their books, all of the furniture, all of the accessories, and all of the outfits. Plus had the loving one that you could get customized to look like you, PLUS all the poo poo for THAT one too. Everybody was jealous of that girl.

For some reason, I remember the dolls being about $75-$80, then again that might have been in the earliest days as I was reading those things at the end of the '80s. I begged and begged and begged and got the Samantha one. It's still at my mom's. I never really played with it, but I can't remember if I was pressured not to as it was too fancy or if I just didn't have the interest once I got it. It came with an authentic Indian head penny. I had all the books for Kirsten, Samantha and Molly. Mom would occasionally go off on some tangent like this, a mix of trying to make me a girly-girl (didn't happen) and actually be on the cutting edge of something.

Oh man, American Doll. I spent so many hours of my youth pouring over the magazine. I didn't like the dolls. Or the stories. No, I loving loved the furniture. Back then they had amazing handmade pieces of furniture that won my little girl heart. I remember this one bedroom set made out of a nice dark wood I wanted more than anything. Then the company was bought out and the furniture looks like crap now.

I remember making fun of my best friend's little sister for reading them and having all the dolls or whatever, but I was always just a little curious what the books were like. Are they just "Pioneer daughter," "Dust bowl sisters," "Survivor of the Oregon Trail" etc. like I was picturing? Were all the dolls friends in the books?

I always wonder how women didn't spend their childhood in fear from glassy eyes boring into their souls from the top shelf. And how did you not get bored of these? Batman had grappling action and rockets. At best Barbie could get her face chewed off by the new dog and was utterly ruined. Batman on the other hand gained battlescars.

I didn't really own dolls as a kid, but my collection of My Little Ponies would have full scale wars with my brother's dinosaur toy collection.  And it's not 90's, but let's take a moment to marvel at Gwen.  She's a Homeless American Doll girl that costs $95. She's so poor she only comes with one accessory: The hairband that can also be a belt!
