  • A tear came to my eye, I was 10 and man I tell you Kids that was born after thses times missed out on some good shows. I carly, Wizzards of wraverly place,Phenius and Pherb can not touch these shows

  • The 1990s rock & TGIF will return next year!

  • Like this S*** if Peopleschoice via Twitter sent you here. lol

  • This isn't the one I grew up with. I was born in 83 and I remember the one from the late 90s, with Boy Meets World, Hanging with Mr. Cooper, Step by Step, and Family Matters. Those were the days man.

  • TGIF deserves a another chance!

  • Who gives a shit if they bring a 2012 version of TGIF..nothing can ever bring back the REAL, TRUE, and AWESOME 1990's version..not in this life, anyways.

  • @LuigiLaker Well you're going to have to watch because anything beats reality crap, contest shows like dancing with the stars, or all their nonsensical drama crap. You owe it to at least the younger generation to give this your ratings and show them that tv was actually good before and that they too can watch network television. That's what TGIF represents. Quality television that's targets a demographic or everybody unlike tv of today that targets just one person or in most cases women

  • @LuigiLaker Kids television today is just a slap to their unknowing faces. It's an injustice and I feel sorry for kids today. They deserve what I had on to watch growing up and nothing less.

  • @osaji922 Being a 1990's kid was the flat out BEST. The 2000's kids will never be able to expierence that, in this life. Watching Jordan's Bulls, TGIF, REAL Saturday morning cartoons, Super Nintendo, everything. It's a shame for today's children..they don't have that.

  • @LuigiLaker Which is exactly why they should at least enjoy a small part of what the 90's were all about.

  • @LuigiLaker Soo true! And being a teeanager in the 2000's wasn't too bad either, even though some good things of the 90's were gone & replaced by crap, but it was still better than the kids who grew up in the 2000's & become teens in this terrible decades with craziness. Now I see some kids are acting like little adults...

  • never ever will this ever happen again smh

  • @quensel0 ABC president already said it will happen. Fall 2012 my friend

  • @osaji922 oh shit thnx for the heads up...i would of never guessed a return

  • @osaji922 Is it just me or is this decade, the '10 decade starting to look back at the 90's & trying to bring it back? Not just TV but everything in general...

    But I don't think ABC ruining itself with ABC "Family" can pull TGIF like it was in the 90's again.

  • @Acharmye Dude you are soooo right. That's the way it's starting to feel. The 2010's is looking like a throwback to the 90's. I think music is still lost but in trends and TV particularly TV I see it changing back to what is used to be like a little. Maybe that's what this decade needs for it to be better than the last dreadful decade. A little touch of the 90's

  • @osaji922 Cool! It wasn't my imagination then! It feels that way except with a still 2000 feel to it, like some bratty little kids still act like adults. I'd call it the Tendies(lol). Yeah the music is still not there yet, though Nikki Minaje's 'Fly' song sounds a little or more 90's to me. Yeah TV's going back with less reality shows & more family sitcoms, als with TGIF.

  • @osaji922 I mean I like some 00 stuff, like style but i hate the tabloids(sounds like tablet), iPad, etc. crap. I hate touch screen. But yeah we need the 90's to mellow things out, kids need to be kids again. Or how they grow up will be disturbing(ike what next they wear make up?) I always wanted to be part of the hood in the 90's, it seemed so cool. They had a lot of pizza too(always advertised it) so that's a plus. The 90's should really come back but interesting to blend w/ good stuff of '00

  • If they bring back the 90s, I hope they focus on the teens of the decade too. Not like they were too old to enjoy the time.

    Also, if they bring it back, it should not dominate. Let the '10s be its own decade! Each decade had its own thing by the time it ended with a "3" at least.

    I agree about kids getting too much adult freedom, esp. since we had to wait and earn our adulthood. I remember shows where kids would try to get their folks to buy them a portable phone, but the folks never did!

  • @ChrisRJ I totally agree! They should do that, no one's really old except for parents of teens or 20 year olds, that's when they start to enter the not youth phase, IMO.

    Exactly. I think it shouldn't be another 90's, I don't think it can either. Maybe it can also have a blend of the 00's & 90's as part of it, just not the ipads, itablets. Yeah that's very true.

    I agree. We had to wait, earn it, & answer to someone. I know they had to ask for a lot & today kids get cellphones without asking!

  • Plan D

    8:00 Tim Allen's Last Man Standing

    8:30 Melissa and Joey

    9:00 Disney's Good Luck Charlie

    9:30 Phineas and Ferb

  • the first opening to the funny nugget show on fridays

  • Reality Shows are starting to fade out, so Family Sitcoms may be coming back. The Answer=TGIF!

  • @UrkManRocks One can only hope.

  • TGIF started in 1988 and ended in 2005.

  • osaji922 What shows you think should be the TGIF Lineup for next Fall?

  • @UrkManRocks 8 Last Man Standing, 8:30 Good Luck Charlie, 9 The Middle, 9:30 Melissa and Joey

  • @osaji922 Viewers fear that when TGIF returns next fall, ABC will move the Middle and Modern Family to TGIF.

  • @UrkManRocks Modern Family doesn't really scream TGIF to me. It seems rather adult oriented with adult themes. Between Sophia Vergera's cleavage and the gay couple, I don't see it clicking that much with a young audience.

  • Or Plan B

    8:00 Tim Allen's Last Man Standing

    8:30 Melissa and Joey

    9:00 Disney's Good Luck Charlie

    9:30 Disney's So Random!

    10:00 20/20

  • @UrkManRocks take out So Random and put something like The Middle and it would be a hot hit

  • From what I heard, ABC really wants to bring TGIF back for the 2012-13 Season next fall but @osaji922 has a point. Here what I think the block will be, with Family-friendly Sitcoms

    Plan A

    8:00 Tim Allen's Last Man Standing

    8:30-10:00 Disney Channel Original Sitcoms

    10:00 20/20

  • They should have used Katy Perry's new song.

  • BALKI!

  • Thumbs up if Mr. Good sent you here :)

  • so... ryan good sent me here lol

  • ryan good sent me here

  • Ryan good tweeted this

  • And nowadays it's called the dreaded Friday Night Death Slot. :(

  • This was certainly a family time.Nothing like this particular event since.That I know of.

  • TGIF made it cool to stay in da house on a friday nite sittin bacc wit da fam watchin 2 great hours. then after that 20/20 LOL

  • Does anyone else miss this besides me? :(

  • @bushwhacked59 i miss it!!!!!!!!

  • @bushwhacked59 more than you think

  • Back in elementary school, the principal would always say "Today is TGIF Day" during morning announcements on Fridays. In middle school, they talked about TGIF during morning announcements on Fridays, but after 1997, it was never spoken of again. I wonder why...

  • God, I miss TGIF!! :) I remember all the shows I grew up with on TGIF, I love Full House and Family Matters. They had really awesome comedies back in the 80's and 90's, we don't get that today anymore! I agree with skittlesgirl89, TV really sucks these days! I' ve had it with the damn reality shows!!

  • I used to watch this before I wore deodorant back in junior high. Then once I started doing that, I actually had a date on Friday nights.

  • You know, since Disney Channel resurrected the family sitcom with "Good Luck Charlie", DC can make some new shoes that follow the same GLC formula. Who knows, if Disney does that, they can possibly resurrect the TGIF name.

  • @mattjnor98 That's a good show.

  • @Accune It's actually one of the few good shows left on Disney Channel if you ask me. If they want to be a likeable channel by Hardcore Disney fans again, they need to add full-length Mickey Mouse cartoons again in the afternoons, leave all those tween shows for primetime on Monday thru Thursday, and on Saturday and Sunday. They can also resurrect the TGIF name on Friday nights and add Good Luck Charlie on that lineup (plus add some new family sitcoms on there as well).

  • @mattjnor98 This is what I expect will happen once ABC revives the block..Tim Allen's show will be the anchor show depending on how it's doing. The other 3 shows will most likely come from the Disney Channel. Probably Good Luck Charlie being one of the other 3 if it stays viable. The other 2 shows will come from TGIF veteran developers I believe. If they don't use Good Luck Charlie they'll have to develop 3 shows instead of 2. In 2005 they wanted to revive the block...

  • @bh7812 I say they take Good Luck Charlie from Disney Channel and take Melissa and Joey from ABC Family and make a new show along with having Last Man Standing. That would sound like an awesome lineup

  • @osaji922 Also add The Simpsons, Everybody Hates Chris, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, Scrubs, & I'd say Raven Symone's show but it had adult themes & was canceled.

  • @bh7812 Where did you hear that they might take shows from Disney channel because that's a pretty good idea but only with Good Luck Charlie

  • @mattjnor98 They tried to pitch Hannah Montana to ABC twice. First time denied because Miley Cyrus was too young in the eyes of the network. 2nd time they were on their Grey's/Housewives/reality TV binge and lost interest in reviving the block. The plan was to revive the block with Hanna Montana, Lizzie McGuire, Even Stevens and Suite Life with Zack and Cody at that time from my understanding.

  • if you have ABC Family you can see some of these old shows their so please dont care about those trashy "reality" shows plus those arent even for families...only appropriate family channel would probably be disney channel or nick

  • I remember having TGIF/pizza parties. I miss those days!

  • I loved this line up of family friendly sitcoms so much in the 90's, I've created a group on Facebook called "BRING BACK TGiF FAMILY FRIENDLY FRIDAYS ON ABC!!!" if you feel the same as me, find and like us!

  • @phoenixtattoodesign Yes why is ABC called abc Family today when the family shows were BEFORE abc Family in the 90's with ABC's TGIF. They should not call it family today, with crap shows like Secret Life of a Teeanger, Gilmore Girls, & etc.

  • I remember back in the hall of 1989, when my family just moved to America from Britain, my sisters and I would wait for this show to come on. To us, it officially began the weekend. The best lineup was when it was Full House, Family Matters, Perfect Strangers and Just the 10 Of Us. Then they moved Full House to Tuesdays and brought in Boy Meets World or Step by Step and I stopped watching. But hearing the theme music makes me remember those days of innocense. Good times, thanks for posting!

  • @Vauthier the line up with Boy Meets World and Step by Step was the line up that I liked best man. I don't know why you stopped watching when those came. '93-'96 to me were TGIF's twilight years. They killed it by '97 with Teen Angel and Alien in the Family and maybe Clueless as well considering it only went one season on TGIF and was shifted to UPN

  • I remember being in first grade and every friday was serioulsy like... magical. They felt really different than all the other days. And on Friday night mum would let me go in her room away from my brothers to lie down on her bed and watch TGIF! OMG OMG OMG! All I can remember is Boy Meets World & Sabrina The Teenage Witch. What else was on from 1995-1997?

  • @brad349miller Family Matters, Hangin With Mr. Cooper, and Step by Step

  • TGIF Made it cool to stay at home Friday nights

  • Damn I miss TGIF

  • TGIF was the shit. It was like another family member, it grew up with me. Friday nights were always TGIF nights.

  • i don't think we realized how great the era was that we grew-up in, until we realized what a crappy time it is for kids/teens now. what is there to do, watch snooki and sext? dear god...

  • man I remember that promo.....I miss when TGIF was the true start to the weekend. Such great shows back then.

  • I miss TGIF! I miss sitcoms too! Now we are stuck with all these stupid......reality shows.....

  • Cause it's Friday

  • Not to mention having multiple fonts in one word screams early '90s also.

  • You may not really feel it, but TGIF-esque programming is back! Modern Family, The Middle, and No Ordinary Family on ABC's Friday Nights give Friday night power to a whole new generation. Be sure to share this with today's kids for the sake of tradition.

  • @pannoni1 Unfortunately, that's not the case anymore; now it's Supernanny and Primetime: What Would You Do? on between 8 and 10.

  • @pannoni1 I've been hearing talk that the new president of ABC wanted to revive TGIF for this fall but was advised to wait a little longer, possibly next fall. He was the former president at ABC Family which recently started to incorporate TGIF esque programming as of late, particularly Melissa and Joey. You're right though. The Middle and Modern Family have a TGIF feel. The Middle more so. Modern Family's got the gay couple but I think it works. would love them to be multi cam laugh tracked

  • @osaji922 That's exactly what I'm hearing lately, the new ABC president really wants to do this revival. The network's all for it but they're saying wait one more season and try next Fall. The hope is Tim Allen's show does well, move it to Friday-it anchors the block and they can plug in 3 more shows from there and they're currently looking for 3 other shows that will hopefully revive the block. They are taking this very seriously and looking for 3 other shows. All rests on Tim Allen now.

  • You would go to bed watching ABC's TGIF and wake up to ABC's morning cartoons.

  • @90sEraEra Sure would.

    TGIF was the official start to the weekend. It was always so exciting to see the opening to TGIF. ABC Saturday morning cartoons brought a warm, cozy feeling that reminded you there was still weekend time ahead. On Sunday evening, America's Funniest Home Videos (with Bob Saget) was the moment when you realized that the weekend was over and Monday morning was imminent.

  • Man, that brought me back to my childhood. I remember me and my family used to live for TGIF, and we would beat it home to catch it. It was bonus if we could afford pizza :)

  • whats the first theme?

  • @dianafeiteira It was the one with the mouse and clock tower.

  • Man I used to stay home Friday nights to watch Family Matters, Perfect Strangers, Step By Step, Boy Meets World, Mr. Belvedere, Dinosaurs, and some other shows that were cancelled after 1 season.

  • i remember that it use to show FAMILY MATTERS,FULL,HOUSE,BOY MEETS WORLD,PERFECT STRANGERS,AND THAT STEP BY STEP SHOW LOL damn i miss the 90's

  • Thank you for uploading this! My sister and I used to sing this all the time.

  • i miss the 90s :(

  • I'll be happy in 15 years when FutureNewsAnchor gets some 3-yr-old child today who will be 18 then who will claim he "knows" about the 2000's, and will argue with him about 2004, when they weren't even alive during that year!

    I KNOW the 1980's, I have FIRSTHAND knowledge! Some punk 18-yr-old is trying to claim they know 1989, when they weren't even born yet! People, from someone who was born in 1977, and 11 in 1988 when TGIF debuted on ABC, I KNOW Mr Belvedere WAS part of the original TGIF.

  • @MsJamieclark It sure was, TGIF is where Mr. Belvidere's run ended as well. The pre-TGIF Friday Night a few seasons earlier, so to speak, had Webster, Benson, and the last year of Diff'rent Strokes as well.

  • best two days on tv ever tgif and snick

  • @cbone72 ....yes the big orange couch!.......Roundhouse was the 'grown up show' i could stay up late & watch

  • I'll say it once, and I'll say it again. Society has made a turn for the worse the moment the TGIF block was canceled.

    And you can quote me on that.

  • @oamad0101 For how long TGIF existed which I think was '88-'00, ABC should have worked hard to keep it around like NBC tries hard to keep SNL around even though SNL isn't even that great. From what I've heard, we may get lucky in the not too distant future though for a revival

  • @osaji922 With the Reality TV wave finally dying down, ABC is, from what I'm hearing, BADLY wanting to bring back the TGIF concept and I really hope they do. The hope for the new Tim Allen sitcom in the Fall is if it does well on Tuesdays, it will be moved to Fridays and become an anchor show for the revived TGIF. They're starting it on Tuesdays first to see how well it will be recieved. It looks quite promising and definitely looks like a TGIF type show. We shall see :)

  • @osaji922 For ABC to successfully revive that block, they're going to need 4 shows they feel will be a great investment as well as shows they will commit to in the long run. If they do that, I think they can find great success with that block again. They'll need to look to their Disney Channel development people for help with that though. If anyone can produce 4 "TGIF worthy" shows for ABC it will be that group. They're investing big time in Tim Allen so looks like they're serious about this.

  • i miss TGIF in the early 90s....it started at 7 and ended at 9 when the news was on....it entertained you through the night as a whole family and little kids and teens had a favorite show to look forward on friday nights..it was our ''partytime'' lol ..and then when it was over it was bed time...all the shows were thoroughly enjoying...this was entertainment for us before everything with a PC took over. back when people had only a life offline lol good sitcoms are dead now. :( miss 90s tv.

  • @MariIynMonroe I hear you. Everything has gone to crap. The internet has ruined us. Just think of Step By Step, Family Matters, The Cosby Show, Little Dinosaurs and Perfect Strangers. Those were great times.

  • @MariIynMonroe When the news came on ur like..."awe crap!"

  • I miss the 90's!!!!!!1

  • 1990s graphic design is so tacky looking. What was the obsession with stretchy mutli-fonts, print backgrounds and neon colors?

  • 1:Wake Up

    2:Duck ShootOuts

    3:School

    4:Principal Office

    5:Pizza Party

    6:School Out

    7:Jump a Gook

    8:Duck more Shootouts

    9:Family Matters, Full House, Step by Step, Hangin with Mr. Cooper

  • Super Throwback!

  • OMG I remember this!!! hahahah xD

  • you'll never see anything like this on friday nights anymore cause shows don't last that long mainly cause people leave the house on friday nights now and shows get cancelled right after they start. I used to love TGIF back when i was a kid. I remember when CBS did that CBS Block Party in late '97 and all those shows on that block got cancelled LMFAO Tryna take back their viewers from ABC LMFAO!....bastards

  • @TheRatedIX7 true...the only instances where you see shows survive on friday nights is cable channels like Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network, and Disney Channel....obviously kids don't have as much of a yearning for going out as teens and adults do...they're more of a stay-in, slumber party brunch...

  • @TheRatedIX7 growing up in the 90's, there wasn't even one show that I watched on CBS. It's funny because when it took Family Matters and Step by Step, it seemed as if they just mysteriously disappeared from TGIF. It wasn't until years later that I found out they went to CBS and got canceled after one season

  • @osaji922 I remember the '97-'98 season when Family Matters and Step By Step switched to CBS. For the die hard fans of both of those shows they'd start out on ABC to catch Boy Meets World and then turned on CBS to catch the other 2 shows. I had to tape all 3 shows a lot of that year since that was my last year of High School. CBS tried very hard with their Party Block concept..well promoted too. It was just the people that had grown up with TGIF were adults at that point :(

  • @bh7812 okay I was only 5 at that time and I remember feeling like TGIF was starting to take a dove with shows like Clueless. That's the type of programming I hate today where it aims at one demographic. I was 5 watching that and it felt wrong. Good theme song though lol. I remember the years with Family Matters, By Meets World, Step by Step, and Hangin With Mr. Cooper. With those shows, it felt like TGIF was at its peak.

  • @osaji922 So true. Today all shows on kids' television, atleast on Nick have the same theme as Clueless.

  • @osaji922 The initial hope when those two shows went to CBS was that they'd get at LEAST 1 season if not a couple years each there. Low ratings due to the TGIF audience becoming adults plus NO series finale for either show assured the Party Block concept had a bad taste in many people's mouths. They tried to include Bronson Pinchot in that block too but I think people wanted, and expected to see Balki again so that's why the CBS block failed more or less.

  • LOL!

  • Oh my god. This is very old school. I miss the good old days of Friday night fun. TGIF was definitely on my television. I hope Heaven is like this. And I also hope it has Nickelodeon's Snick, TNT's Monstervision, and USA's Up All Night.

  • @Ty2k83 Haha. I'd forgotten all about Monstervision and Up All Night. Friday nights have always been a special time.

  • they could bring it back but it would never be as it was some 14-16 years ago its like loseing your verginity its a special one time deal that can NEVER be recreated

  • Bring it back!!!!! :'(

  • TGIF Made it cool for stayin in the house on a Friday Night

  • Oh My God! This was so awesome when I was a kid. It was a family gathering/ slumber party staple every Friday night! I have nothing but fond memories with TGIF. My mom would always order food and invite the neighbors over to watch TGIF. It was sooooooooooooooooo awesome back then. The new generation doesn't know how bad they have it with reality television. I hope they have something like this in heaven.

  • My Family Would Order Sum Pizzas Every Friday and We Would Watch TGIF on Tv and Enjoy Good Tv..... Oh How I Miss Those Days......(Tear Drops) Dat was only if the kids did good in school during the week......

  • My goodness! I got this wonderful blast from the past. I look up perfect strangers and...wow. I remember TGIF. I would cry if I actually missed a show. ABC really made it imperative to watch on fridays. Just the theme song brought the excitment just now. Thanx for putting this up:)

  • Oh My God. I was such a TGIF kid/teen. Friday night was ABC.

  • 0:13 WTF??

  • @jefferios It was balki and larry doing the introductions for the night's programming. The TGIF characters would rotate hosting duties every week and do introductions and exits for every program and the night as a whole.

  • Remember you couldnt figure out what to watch on Fridays. When you were in school you'd say "I'm gonna watch TGIF tonight".

  • Oh man, i almost forgot the song. Classic 90's, Got to love them.

  • I miss the 90s :(

    Golden Age of TV. Friday Night on ABC was the place to be. And you know it cuz it got its own theme intro.

    God what happened to television??

  • @ladystixxs Survivor and American Idol happened and completely ruined things.

  • The color scheme definitely screams early 90s. Every Friday at 7pm (Central Time! Hooyeah!) I would wait through the end of Wheel of Fortune to see this opening sequence. The weekend began for me when I heard those beats and see the logo bounce back and forth.

    Now... I don't think I watch TV on Fridays anymore (aside from Conan and Ferguson). Sad.

  • @atarian2049 That was just it exactly, you summed up the Friday night ritual perfectly for a huge number of teens, including myself, during the '90s. As I got into Junior High and then into High School, a lot of Friday night plans everyone had didn't start until after TGIF was done. Scheduling of Friday Night activities for many probably centered around that block. Truly miss those days.

  • I LUVED T.G.I.F Family matters was always my fav! I liked Perfect Strangers too! OMG! BABY TALK! Its funny I rembered a show with talking babies but couldn't remember the name of the show. That was a cute show! I MISS THE 90S TOO! it stinks that ABC doesn't do it anymore. I miss Saturday mornings a lot too!

  • Now THIS is something i definitely remember....watching TGIF was a MUST after a long week of elementary school...my dad would bring me and my mom to this lady who would do our hair at her house, and TGIF was always on...I would get upset when "A Current Affair" came on because I thought it was boring at the time LOL!

  • I know, I'm young to say this, but when I was about three, you know, right before Y2K, we would have so much fun with TGIF, just not with this theme, but I remember TGIF...

  • Me and my mom watched this every Friday night when I was a kid and we always order a pizza and watched full house, perfect strangers, family matters and even that show about the talking baby that was like the movie look whose talking. Then it got not so funny a 9:00 because 20/20 came on and my mom had to watch it. what was the name of the show with the talking baby?

  • freakofevolution...beileve it or not the name was babytalk!! lol...i loved it..it came on before step by step!! my favorite line up was full house...step by step..perfect strangers and boy meets world!! lol..me and my family use to do the pizza thing to!! as did my friends house so i was always either home or at my friends!! we NEVER played outside on friday...lol the old tgif shows,should be the new nick at nite shows!! even that sucks now...

  • nick at night sucks big time. i think the only show i watch is malcolm in the middle. they use to show perfect strangers, they still show family matters. oh thanks for remembering the name of that show with the baby...Baby Talk...DUH!! i miss the 90s!

  • @freakofevolution I think for some reason, they decided to take off Family Matters on nick at nite as of September, 2010

  • @retrosam84 Family Matters is still on Nick at Nite. Only it's on from 5:00 am - 6 am. Full House follows from 6:00 am - 7:00 am (Monday-Friday only).

  • i think it was called "baby talk" believe it stared page keller and george clooney.

  • AHH memories:)Back during a time when everything was ok no worries,no stress, and back when tv was good.Not like the shit they have now.Wish I was a kid again:)

  • OMG!!!

    T.G.I.F was Pizza and Cokes nite!!!

    Those were the days huh, lol.

    Well....atleast we all have memories

    and YouTube.

  • hi, its teresa. i used to always get a pickle and a coke at concessions. and then i'd save it up and watch tgif. so fun. so nice. sometimes i hide the pepsi in the pots. ;)

  • I remember we would make homemade cheeseburgers and shakes every Friday night watching TGIF. Oh, the memories!

  • I always watched TGIF...Full House, Family Matters, Perfect Strangers, Just The 10 of Us..Step by Step..aaah memories as a kid

  • blessed to have been so sheltered. We knew there were bad things out there, but my parents and grandparents sheltered us and tried to keep out the bad, so we could focus on the good things like TGIF and roller skating on Saturday afternoon, and Church and Icecream on Sunday By the time the week rolled around you were either wanting school or clinging onto sunday til 9 or 10 to catch Married with Children now we have ovr 300 channels and still nothing good to watch lol somebody help i want my 90s

  • you know this is show and this time period is what made family and friends so close, it was the weird and off the wall rituals that we use to do, it was the excitment of renting the never ending story or some other horror flick or scifi film that pulled kids together. I mean I remember being 8 and riding my bike around town with my cousins, I would never let my kids do that no a days, and its not the fact that people are crazier these days, its the fact that its so open and known, we were

  • Oh yeah and Friday nites were pizza and popcorn nites at my home. Also my cousins would come over.  After TGIF we would watch Just the Ten of Us and Freddys Nightmares, or whatever else was on that was creepy, also at midnight on MTV was headbangers ball.... anyone remember that...

  • You just described my friday nights in the 90's.

  • Those were the good days...nostalgia.

  • the only reason it went to shit is because all the original shows were either being moved to new time slots on different days, or they were wrapping up the series. Which meant that other shows had to fill there spots. But if TGIF were to return to television who would honestly watch it ? I mean John Stamos is trying to get either a full house movie or show going again, if that was on there say with a few new remake shows or new fresh original sitcoms would you watch it? I think I would.

  • WHAT DOES TGIF MEAN??

  • Thank Goodness It's Friday

  • In every day use it meant "Thank God It's Friday"

    But for ABC it meant "Thank God It's Funny"

    They used it for there Friday night family line up

  • God! I havn't seen this for ages.Neither has my sister.

  • Man does TV suck these days:(

  • @skittlesgirl89 I agree, I miss the 1980's and early 1990's so much.

  • @skittlesgirl89

    I hate to be synical , but yeah , pretty much. It's just kinda . . . fizzle and YUCK.

  • I miss watching TGIF in the early 1990's. After 1996, TGIF was starting to go down hill.

  • Holy shit, I remember that o_O

  • This was back when TV was good now it's a bunch of crap lol

  • i miss eating at mcdonalds with my daddy and coming home to TGIF. so much of my childhood was TGIF!

  • Yea it was Pizza Hut or Burget King for us..TGIF then bed time kinda sucks that nothing on TV durin Friday-Saturday night can compare to TGIF and TGIS which didnt last long but I remember it had some ok shows

  • Every Friday Night was PIZZA NITE, and ABC's TGIF for our family when I was little at that time.

  • Ah! The good 'ol days of TGIF.

  • "It's Friday night and the mood is right! We're gonna have some fun, show ya how it's done. TGIF!" Why does that sound suggestive?

  • Like sucked when from 96 to present. This is when life was good for me and everyone else.

  • Oh man. When you saw this you knew it. In the immortal words of Garnett Lee, weekend confirmed

  • Good times. T_T

  • Wow so much memeories

  • We were way too young to go clubbin on friday night so we had tgif instead. Ahh the memories.

  • ahh omg memories

  • I love TGIF

  • Hell yeah time to watch some Dinosaurs.
