I always thought Woody was the hot one in this, too.

2022-02-21 07:02:42 +0000 UTCI had a really rough day and let me tell you, this was exactly what I needed when I got home—to watch an old movie with my girl Ashleigh. I don’t think I’ve seen this one since I was a kid and I’d forgotten a lot of it (like how truly annoying Ariel really is). But you liked the same parts that I still find great, and it was fun to go back to my childhood for a night. Thanks for the laughs!

2022-02-21 07:00:09 +0000 UTCWhile you were talking about John Lithgow gettin it, I’m always over here looking at Woody (friend with the glasses) 👀😏 Clark Kent vibes. It always makes me happy to know people have love for 3rd Rock From the Sun! It’s one of my favorites ❤️

2022-02-20 17:12:07 +0000 UTCThe county I lived in back in the 80s in Mississippi banned MTV during the whole Satanic Panic thing. The ordinance basically stated that any cable company operating in the county could not offer it to people. We held a protest, but since we were all below voting age nobody gave a shit. By the time I saw MTV again it didn't play music anymore. I would go to Jackson to visit friends on the weekend and we would record Headbanger's Ball on VHS and make copies for people in my high school.

2022-02-20 17:11:29 +0000 UTCI didn't wear these, but I was certainly very 80s. (We're so cool, we're so fine, we're the class of '89!) A lot of fashion is questionable in every decade, that's what I love about it! As a theatre costumer, it makes period work easier for me. Iconic pieces, good and bad, really make the difference.

2022-02-20 17:00:50 +0000 UTClol, yeah, I'm not sure why it became a fashion choice, but that doesn't mean I wasn't into it along with everyone else, thinking I was cool :) A lot of 80's fashions were questionable

2022-02-20 15:52:13 +0000 UTCLeg-warmers are for dancers. They still use them. In the 80s, with dancing movies like this, and Flashdance, and with the huge rise of aerobics from Jane Fonda, people started treating them like fashion.
