ABC’s TGIF TV Show Song Poll.

Damn Some Of These Theme Songs Are Catchy!

My love for the old ABC TGIF Friday line up runs deep. Shows like Full House, Family Matters, Dinosaurs, Boy Meets World, and Sabrina The Teenage Witch were some of my favorite series to watch growing up.

I also have an immense love for theme songs and most of these have really awesome ones... Therefore, I wanted to know what YOU think!

Take my poll and let me know which one of these was your favorite theme song. Theme songs are so very important to a show. They set the mood and get you excited for what you're about to see.

Below are the songs if you need a reminder:

Full House

Family Matters

It Was All A Dream...

Remember the good ol' day's when you'd plop on the couch and watch 'Dinosaurs' on ABC's TGI-Fridays? In celebration of that awesome memory, check out this mashup of 'Dinosaurs' (TV Series 1991–1994) and Hypnotize by The Notorious B.I.G (1997) created by Benjamin Roberts.

TGIF Flashback - Sabrina The Teenage Witch.

Fashion Game Serious...

Ain't no body messing with Sabrina's clique. Another cool show from the TGIF lineup.

Melissa Joan Hart was killing it back in the day (I loved Clarissa on Nick too). What a blast from the past! Check these guys out... I mean really, analyze the photo above. I love looking at the little details from Television shows in the 90s. From the clothing to the furniture to the slang... #TheGoodDays

Let's not forget one of the original cool cats of TV. If Salem was around when the internet boom happened, he would have definitely been a cat sensation.

It's Friday Bitches!

Can it be that it was all so simple then...

I'm probably staying in tonight because I had a crazy week and I'm actually craving some relaxation. I wish I could turn on ABC and watch this line-up you see above... Boy Meets World, Family Matters, and Dinosaurs.

I always feel so nostalgic these days that the world is moving so fast... I guess I could always find somewhere online to stream these goodies.

Anyways, have a nice weekend everyone! Hope you all either party like rockstars, enjoy a good book, or curl up with some good wine and cheese and watch some Netflix.

TGI-Fridays with Full House.

Nubia Mejia 2:34:00 PM

Man, those Friday TV line-ups back in the day sure used to be fun to watch...

Who doesn't miss the Tanners? Michelle, DJ, Stephanie, Danny, Uncle Jesse, Joey, even ol' Kimmy Gibbler. Anyway, on behalf of myself and a bunch of Full House gifs... Have a nice, fun, fat weekend. Dance your ass off a little bit too while you're at it couch potato (at least in between commercials).

The TV Gods Have Spoken: We Want The 80s/90s Back!

Nubia Mejia 1:14:00 AM

Man, Life Is Just So Overwhelming Now... Isn't It?

With so many new gadgets, technology, apps, etc. It's like Ahhhhhh! Don't get me wrong, I love tech and toys but it's been a bit much lately. Just because I like to play with phones, take photos, beta test things, etc. doesn't mean I want to covert my arm into a projector of pressable buttons that may lead to world domination (~~or do I?~~). Call me old fashioned, but some of the things I've seen lately freak me out a bit. I'll try anything out once (some things are actually pretty rad) but that doesn't mean I'll include it in my daily life.

I think it's clear that a lot of us, especially in a certain age group... MISS THE PAST. When things used to be simpler and honestly, just as enjoyable.

One of my favorite shows to watch is The Goldbergs.

"I'm twisted up inside, but nonetheless I feel the need to stay

I don't know the future, but the past keeps getting clearer every day."

It's about 11 year old Adam Goldberg growing up in the 1980s with his kooky, cool family. It makes me reminisce, laugh like crazy and have such a good time (~~I think tears of laughter have made their way down my face~~.) The Goldbergs gives me a fuzzy, warm feeling because it makes me associate with a lot of my own memories. It's like getting a small chunk of your life back for 22 minutes.

From the toys Adam obsesses over, to the activities you see go on in the school, the funky fashion and hairstyles, the movies and cartoons that were released at the time, even how people acted and treated eachother... so many cool memories. Now-a-days we could barely get our face out of our cellphones.

The Goldbergs doesn't seem to be where it's ending...

There has been many rumors of both A Married With Children spinoff and Full House Revival. Funny fact, both shows first aired 1987.

Married With Children is rumored to be a spinoff revolving Bud Bundy (David Faustino) and what he's up to at age 40.

The Full House revival is said to have a few of the original cast members. TV Guide claimed John Stamos (Uncle Jesse) would be the lead and others such as Candace Cameron Bure (D.J.), Jodie Sweetin (Stephanie) and Andrea Barber (Kimmy) are on board. There's no mention of Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen however, they're probably too busy with their fashion empire and billions somewhere (~~womp, womp~~).

If Full House got revived it would be the second ABC Family "TGIF" lineup show to come back. Let's not forget Girl Meets World trying to bring back some of the Epic Magic of what was Boy Meets World (First episode aired 1993).

This show revolves around Riley Matthews (Cory and Topanga's daugther) exploring the world and learning life's lessons just as Cory did. The new show has pretty much the same map as the original.

To wrap this up, let's just say the past was and still is rad. It's nice to have bit's and pieces of it in this hectic world we live in today... even if it's on television.

TGIF Fridays - Corey and Topanga.

Nubia Mejia 2:30:00 PM

Remember ol' TGI-Fridays? Oh the good days... Where have you gone? The days when shows didn't need people crying every 5 minutes, pregnant teens, and everyone cheating on each other to get you to watch them? I even remember the corny little song from the commercial in it's glory and (It's Friday Night, TGIF!). I'd like to think those days were called the 80s and 90s... but what do I know.

I think one of my favorite shows used the be Boy Meets Girl. Cory Matthews (Ben Savage) and Topanga Lawrence (Danielle Fishel) are still giving me some serious relationship goals to go after. Let's enjoy some of there finest moments.

By the way... Anyone keeping up with Girl Meets World? I only saw like 3 episodes. I'm not going to say it sucks but it's definitely not the same vibe at all to me... not yet at least. I can't blame them though, it's hard to beat or even match the classics.

“Mom, listen, I haven’t been together with Topanga for 22 years, but we have been together for 16. That’s a lot longer than most couples have been together. I mean, when we were born, you told me that we used to take walks in our strollers together around the block. When we were two, we were best friends. I mean, I knew everything about this girl. I knew her favorite color, her favorite food. Then we became six, Eric made fun of me because it wasn’t cool to have a best friend that was a girl or even know a girl. So for the next seven years I threw dirt at her. I like to call those “the lost years”. Then when I was thirteen, mom, she put me up against my locker and she kissed me. I mean, she gave me my first kiss. She taught me how to dance. She always was talking about these crazy things and I never understood a word she said. All I understood was that she was the girl I sat up every night thinking about, and when I’m with her, I feel happy to be alive. Like I can do anything. Even talk to you like this. So that’s, that’s what I think is love, mom. When I’m better because she’s here.”
