Netflix Has Just Released A 90s Themed Show And It Will Give You Instant Nostalgia

A 90s-themed TV show has just been put on Netflix and we are so excited.

The show is called, Everything Sucks!, and it's supposed to perfectly represent being a teenager in the 90s.

The show is set in 1996, in a town called Boring, Oregon, which is actually a real town by the way. It is a comedy that follows the lives of high school freshman, including all of our favorite things about the 90s.

Watching the trailer alone gave me instant nostalgia. The main characters in the show are in the AV Club and Drama Club and are made to work together on a low-budget movie project, throughout the season.  

The funniest thing about this show is that for the most part, the lead actors in the show weren't even alive in the 90s.

In an interview with Entertainment News, Peyton Kennedy and Jahi Winston, who are both actors in the show, talked about what they had to do to study for their roles. They talked about watching shows and movie that were legitimately from the 90s, as well as, studying fashion and music.

When I see this show, I can't help but think of Freaks and Geeks. This show was the same idea except that it was made in the late 90s and was based off of teens in the 80s. This show was amazing and I will never get over that it was canceled after one season.

So, will Everything Sucks! be the same? Netflix has just put on the entire first season, which is 10 half-hour episodes. So, hopefully it will last longer than Freaks and Geeks did.

No matter what happens with it, I am very excited to binge-watch it all in one night. Obviously, this will be a huge let down if it sucks, but so far I have heard good things so, I am staying positive. Even if it's bad, I am just glad they have finally made a show that relates to our teen years.

Andrea Barber Reveals 'Full House' "Crossed A Line" With Kimmy Gibbler

By Meg
Everyone's favorite annoying friend, Kimmy Gibbler, was the punchline to many jokes on Full House. Whether it was one-off remarks about not being wanted in her own home, constantly telling her her feet stink or making fun of her outfit which leads to her confronting Jesse, the show made sure one thing was well known: Kimmy Gibbler was a big joke. "Wouldn't it be great if they could lose the [plane] passengers instead of the luggage?" asks Jesse after Kimmy comes back from a trip. "Go live with a wildebeest," was one from Danny Tanner. "Hey, Kimmy, where are you

10 Of The Best King Of The Hill Episodes That Will Have You Saying "Yep"

By Alex
King of the Hill was a huge part of our afternoon and evening television schedule when we were growing up. The show ran from 1997 until it was finally wrapped up in 2010, and even though it stretched out until 2010 we are still going to consider it a throwback because of its humble late 90s roots. Hank, Peggy, Bobby and Luanne made us all remember that regardless of the differences in personalities, family (and possibly propane) is the most important thing in a person's life. With that being said, here are 10 of the best King of the Hill
