I wish I was born somewhere around 1935 like my grandpa. I would give anything to be able to grow up in the 50's. lol my grandpa said that he would go to the neighbors to watch tv cause there was only a few people that owned tv sets were he lived :)

I think my dad is lucky for being born in 1953 with the old Alvin and the Chipmunks, Atom Ant, Huckleberry Hound, Yogi Bear, and the really old Andy Griffith shows like I watch now (:

Cant they make a time traveler already

I was born in the 80s and I wish I was a girl of the 50's
Everything was so simple and more people were sincere and honest and caring....
young people respected older people and vice versa...
in fact everyone respected everyone else...
women expressed their sexuality with class, elegance, grace, femininity and charm, unlike now where it is expressed through garish exposure of flesh or underwear show...

I find every era has it thing. But out of all the eras I would pick the 50's. And I was born in '96.

I wish I was born some time between the 1910s of my grandparents and the 1940s of my parents. Mid-late 1930s seems about right. I'd have to be American like my paternal side of the family and miss WWII over here in Denmark though. My mom doesn't remember growing up in inner city Copenhagen in the 40s-early 60s as much fun.

Iam glad that Gleason got to say 'Merry Christmas' Now it would be 'Happy Holidays'. What have we become. We need the 50s back and end this liberal crap against our Judeo Christian beliefs.Isn't it sad that people can say Inshallah and not Jesus in public? thsi shows that our society is degrading.

The fifties would of been perfect if two things were non-existent - Wars and all forms of smoking.

IMO, we baby boom generation really didn't do much for the world--in fact segregation was ended by the WW2 generation(King and others) --they also gave us the '50s-although, many who went to college in the EARLY 60s did a lot too, (forget about college kids after 1967)

I formally declare & knight the 50s one of my Top-3 Favorite decades. Thumbs up if you agree
I wish I was born around 1941; late enough to miss WWII but early enough to fully appreciate the culture of the '50s. I would be 67 today and retired! Also, I think the 1960s-1990s were good decades to work in this world, provided I missed the Vietnam draft of course!

Hello Pannoni1
Yes the 50's were great, Ike, et al made the world seem safe, then along came Vietnam and the complicated world of two parents working just to make ends meet.
Love and Peace,

The 50's was the best time of our time period. I don't understand why people make fun of me at school for dressing like the 1950s. Oh well I guess they just don't have good taste.

Hello ratchetsgirl123
Sorry for the late approval, girlfriend problems abound.
I was so in love with Audrey, Groucho, Morris, Jackie, Art, Joyce, Sid, et al.
On a personal note we were planning to watch Jackie and associates the night my father died, I never get through a Honeymooners without breaking down.

Love and Peace be with you and yours,
