I don't remember any of these


I grew up in exactly the right generation (born in 1967), and I'm sure I must have watched dozens of these...things, but I don't remember a single one.

Which may explain why I'm a pathologically shy, heroin-addicted prostitute with uncontrollable acne and dozens of illegitimate children who goes around beating up the mentally challenged and racial minorities and who doesn't know where babies come from.

If only I had paid more attention!

I was born 11 years after you and I should remember more of these too, but I don't remember any specific one. Although I'm sure I would remember some if I actually saw them(as you probably would too), I do remember them being high quality productions in every way. Unfortunately, I wasn't interested because they would interrupt the afternoon cartoon line-up lol. Remember, they only aired like once a month on average.

I spent my entire childhood growing up. What a waste.

Fabulous post..your description gave me a good laugh! I have the same problem..I mean the remembering part not the rest..lol, and I was born in'69.

I only remembered one or two after I read of it. I do remember watching them as mom wouldn't let us watch cartoons (she thought they were mindless drivel) so when these were on we were finally able to watch TV.

Granted after'84 I was too busy contributing to my delinquency as I was in HS but you'd think we'd remember something...and I've never experimented with drugs so I can't blame the faulty memory on that...Hmmm maybe that had something to do with watching these shows

I was born in 75 and I have always remembered bits and pieces of different episodes.

I've always remembered Hammerman's after you. The scene I remember most is the boy leading the blind man home. That scared me for some reason. The blind man seemed scary.

I've always remembered Pinballs because it was the first time I saw anything about a foster home.

The one with the girl whose mom drank a lot concerned me since my dad drank a lot too. That was Francesca, Baby.

What are friends for? Opened my eyes to divorce. I always remembered though the creepy girl and her dolls. A scene with a bathtub always stood out in my memory.

Daddy, I'm their momma now always stuck with me because of the almost drowning of the youngest boy.

Backwards about Dyslexia came out the same time I was diagnosed with dyslexia.

There are a few others I remember bit by bit too but browsing the episode guide I don't remember much.

I have the DVD collection that came in the school bus and when I first got it I hardly recognized any of the shows.

I guess growing up in the 80s maybe they aired a lot of older ones because those are the ones I remember most.

The shows do hold up. My kids are teens and they've enjoyed most of the shows as much as I did.
