Not that long ago, before everything was digitally stored in the cloud and available in real time, we used paper, film and retro devices and it wasn't all that bad.
The 80s were famous for excess, being cheesy, BIG HAIR!! There were so many memorable shows that came on in the 80s. Back then stars used TV to get to the movies, like Michael J. Fox. It was also the decade of sit com. No reality TV to be found. In my opinion it was the last of the network tv and the last of no repeat shows.
