The 80s were filled with primetime specials and very special episodes of otherwise comedic shows. We've enlisted Lindsay from Children of the 80s podcast to help us go back in time and remember these nostalgic events.
Brad's favorite (non-holiday) special growing up was Garfield in Paradise. As a fellow Garfield superfan, Lindsay is also the perfect choice to help us break down Garfield, Jon, Odie, and an angry volcano.
As if that isn't enough, we draft our favorite TV from 1986 to cap it off. This is an episode that is not only special, it's filled with nostalgia and memories for all.

Here at PCY we LOVE nostalgia. And in recent years one TV series has captured 80s nostalgia better than most: Stranger Things. We are looking back at when Stranger Things took Netflix by storm in 2016. We'll talk about the first episode, the great cast, including newcomers and 80s throwbacks (Winona Ryder, Matthew Modine), and the all the nostalgic touches that made the show so great.
Because Stranger Things was so dependent on great young actors, we also look back at a time when child stars ruled the airwaves. Our draft this week is our favorite child sitcom stars of the 80s. It's a fun look back. Don't miss it!

Andy Samberg is very popular, The Lonely Island took SNL by storm, this movie contains cameos from many of the biggest stars in entertainment; so why was Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping such a box office bomb? We'll hit on that in this episode, but we'll focus more on the brilliance of the writing and the music, which has made this initial bomb now a cult classic that is slowly gaining the audience it deserves.
Connor4Real and the Style Boyz are excellent fictional artists. We'll cap off the episode by drafting our favorite fictional bands and musical artists from TV and Film. So turn it up. This one goes to 11.

2016. Eight years ago already. Maybe better remembered for the political chaos of the time, it was also a year filled with wonderful pop culture. TV and streaming were taking off to new heights, and the movies and music were great as well. Listen to our memories and drafts and you might be surprised how much you remember!

You voted and you chose this week's topic: Major League! We have loved this movie since its release in 1989. Definitely in the conversation for best sports movie ever, we talk about the great characters, lines, scenes, and moments that make it so great.
One of the best moments is Rick Vaughn's entrance to "Wild Thing." In honor of that moment, we draft our favorite uses of music in movie sports scenes. It wasn't the easiest list to create, but the choices are all memorable.

This is a special episode as not only do we discuss a great show we all enjoyed, Married...with Children; but we also get to do it by interviewing one of the main writers of the show itself, Richard Gurman. His recently released book Married… with Children vs. the World: The Inside Story of the Shock-Com that Launched FOX and Changed TV Comedy Forever contains many behind the scenes anecdotes and interviews with some of the most important people from the show, like Ed O'Neill.
In our interview, he shares many great stories any fan of the show, or even just television, would enjoy. Settle in for a good time!

C-c-c-c-c'mon! It's time to revisit one of our favorite albums of the 80s: Faith by George Michael from 1987. Tons of hit singles, great videos, and a lot of specific nostalgia all came out of this solo debut. We share all those wonderful memories and break down each track.
Then we get draftin'. Since George Michael was in Wham! first, then became even bigger on his own, we draft our favorite artists who had great solo careers after being in a group (or in some cases even going back and forth).

More guests! This week we welcome Dave and Rob from the Totally 80s and 90s Recall podcast! On their show they cover all kinds of great movies and music, and you must check them out. In this episode they've been tasked with drafting the biggest box office hits from the decades they cover, but with a twist.
For our last choice, we are picking the opposite of a hit. We are dropping a bomb. All participants are choosing a movie that they love but meets two specific criteria: it must have made less than $50M at the box office AND it must have received less than 50% positive reviews from critics on Rotten Tomatoes.
Tune in to learn about their show and see what awesome bombs we all discovered!

In honor of Star Wars as science fiction, we end the show by drafting our favorite sci-fi movies. Listen now to hear what we picked and if your favorites get a mention.
