What old shows from the 90's are worth watching now?

[CyberCubed]

As a kid in the 90's I missed out on watching virtually all the major shows of this time period. I saw the "big" ones like TMNT, Batman: TAS, Simpsons, etc....but there's so much i've never seen of live-action.

Seen most of Star Trek: Next Generation and Deep Space Nine. Saw a solid chunk of Seinfeld, etc.

Any comedies/sitcoms or drama shows I should try to get into from the 90's?

[Eiko]

Well there is the Wonder years also Tintin was cool to.

[Leofan26]

It's so much harder to find though, The Adventures of Pet and Pet maybe? I think I might have spelt it wrong but it was ok, had some romance in it and comedy for teens, it was an old Nick show. Are you Afraid of the Dark? Classic horror series, HA I remember getting freaked out from time to time watching that series, my mom never wanted me to watch that thing :lol:

All that is another good one, Kennan and Kel ? Both comedy. I don't know of any too serious stuff, wasn't that big of that in the 90s, mostly watched comedy so.

[TheBlueTurtle1]

Boy meets world, Kennan and Kel, stuff like that.

[ObiWanFan4life]

Buffy the Vampire Slayer holds up rather well despite some dodgy effects

Frasier is remarkably decent and still funny for a show that's 20 years old.

The early Simpsons episodes always get a good chuckle

[Krutch]

Seinfeld
Angel
Lois and Clark
Sliders

And its not 90s, but I always recommend Veronica Mars to anyone looking for a new show to pick up.

[ZariusTwo]

Can't go wrong with a bit of Babylon 5, currently being reran on the UK Channel WATCH

[NinjaPug]

I'll second the Adventures of Pete & Pete suggestion.

[TMNT_Guy]

No mention of Freakazoid? For shame!

I assume your mention of "the big ones" includes the 90s Spider-Man and X-Men cartoons. If not, for shame.

Keeping with cartoons, I recently re-watched DuckTales and Chip n Dale's Rescue Rangers and both hold up quite well.

I agree with others who noted
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Angel
Sliders (at least until John Rhys-Davies leaves the show, afterward ehh)

Also, X-Files (if you like the sci-fi conspiracy type stuff. I still love the show)

[Gwydion]

If we're talking live action, The Pretender and Early Edition were two of my favorites. Haven't seen Early Edition since, but The Pretender is still good (if you don't mind a cliffhanger ending, anyway).

[T-U-R-T-L-E POWA!]

Roseanne is actually a pretty good show that holds up well because it was more sorta like "real" life. They are just normal people that are kinda considered losers and the show isn't as conventional as a lot of sitcoms. I personally find some aspects a little crude but John Goodman is always awesome. Also a lot of people think Twin Peaks and the X-Files are really awesome as well. I tried to watch Twin Peaks but just couldn't get in to it. It still has a huge fan base though and might be something you would like.

I am a HUUUUUUGE Ducktales fan and also Chip and Dale's Rescue Rangers fan and you are right about both of them. Ducktales holds up the absolute best though. Ducktales is actually my favorite show of all time. Then the Real Ghostbusters(with Lorenzo Music) and Batman The Animated Series have to duke it out for number 2. TMNT would tie with Thundercats for number 3.

[TMNT_Guy]

Someone please smack me over the head, how could I forget about Swat Kats? If the awesome intro alone dosen't get you hooked, then I must question your musical tastes.

Has anyone mentioned Twin Peaks? Because...f*cking Twin Peaks.

[Leo656]

I remember when my Mom was obsessed with Twin Peaks. I wish I'd watched more of it then. I love that kind of weird sh*t. I even liked the movie, although it does have a lot of serious problems and it's pretty unwatchable if you've never seen the show, or have seen the show but don't literally know all of its lore inside and out. It's all got a great "vibe", though, very unsettling and uneasy.

Most of my TV watching in the '90s was wrestling and cartoons... as now... but I always liked Pete & Pete, Clarissa Explains It All, Sabrina, and Lois & Clark on the live-action side of things.

I know Friends and Seinfeld get all the love from back then but I have to be in the mood for either of them. Roseanne was great until the last season. Pretty unwatchable after that. I watched Home Improvement a lot as a kid but I don't like it as much now.

[shuriken]

Whatever was worth watching then.

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

Have you ever given Friends a go?

If you haven't, you really should.
