Happy 20th Anniversary!

I was a couple days late, but I was able to relive this yesterday. I actually still have a VHS recording of the debut on the FoxBox, which really took me back. I even got the last 5 seconds or so of the 24 style countdown clock they were running for the few weeks prior.

I was so excited for this in the months leading up, and it didn’t disappoint. My cousins and I wasted so many Saturdays in late 02/early 03 watching garbage like Ultimate Muscle, Fighting Foodons and Funky Cops just to get a glimpse. I still remember the day they dropped the theme song in the middle of the commercial break during (I think) an episode of Cubix.

He’s only 6 months old, so I know he wasn’t actually processing anything, but popping this in and watching with my son was a special experience too. Pretty wild letting my dusty old VCR take me back to being 11 while I held my infant. Things definitely do change.
