In case you hadn’t noticed, today’s date is 9/02/10 (written as 2/09/10 in the United States, but that doesn’t exactly serve our purposes here). With a special date like that, it would be a crime NOT to reminisce over everyone’s favorite ’90s television series about spoiled brats living (and loving…and drinking…and overdosing) in ritzy Beverly Hills. And who could forget that theme song?!

Let us know about your favorite episodes, quotes, betrayals, twists, tender moments, or characters (oh, Shannen Doherty, TV misses you!) in the comments. And nothing should be spoken about the CW remake of the show lest you be severely judged.

Once, again: Happy 9/02/10 Day!!!

Johnny Depp starred (for the first 4 seasons, anyway) in this police drama about unreasonably good looking officers who went undercover in high schools and other teenage hot spots to solve crime. You may not buy the premise, but chances are good that some of you still have a Johnny Depp poster up on your wall (or a picture in your wallet, in between photos of your husband and your kids). It was with this series that Mr. Depp became known as a teen heartthrob, a title which he still holds two decades later.

George Plimpton hosted this Disney parody of Masterpiece Theater. It only ran for one season, which I find incredible, because the idea of Mickey and Goofy tackling Shakespeare is an appealing one. Plus, hello, George Plimpton was hosting! An even bigger resume point for him, I’m sure, than his involvement with The Paris Review.

What is there to say about giant wooden televisions that they don’t say about themselves? They weren’t just televisions, they were furniture. Practically works of art. They added that “something special” to your sitting room. They were a status sym…OK. They were ugly. We can admit it. However, they evoke memories of a specific era, a specific style, and therefore they are a major nostalgic WIN.

The Adventures of Pete and Pete began as minute-long shorts aired between programs on Nickelodeon in 1989. The shorts were popular, and the rest, as they say, is history. The show ran for three seasons, from 1993 to 1996. It was silly and surreal and was a favorite among most of the people in my age bracket. It also boasted a pretty impressive list of guest stars, including Debbie Harry, Selma Blair, Michael Stipe, Janeane Garofalo, and LL Cool J. The first two seasons are available on DVD, so if this was a childhood favorite, check ‘em out! And tell us about your favorite episodes in the comments.
