Nostalgic Treasures from the ’90s That We Crave

Ah, the ’90s. A whirlwind of excitement that now feels like a cherished memory. Back then, we were blissfully unaware of adulting’s daunting responsibilities—mortgages, insurance premiums, and the elusive “HOA” that restricts our yard decor. In that vibrant decade, we had alternative rock and the likes of Billy Corgan, who hadn’t yet spiraled into conspiracy theories. Yes, “don’t ask, don’t tell” was in full effect, but we still long for the better aspects of that era.

Pop-Up Video

Imagine coming home, turning on VH1, and being greeted by an hour of Pop-Up Video. It was our guilty pleasure—a delightful mix of music videos and celebrity trivia. Did you know that the cat in Lisa Loeb’s “Stay” video belonged to Ethan Hawke? Or that Geri was a nude model before becoming “Sexy Spice”? I spent countless hours glued to that show, and while I might forget algebra, I can recall five facts about Dexy’s Midnight Runners.

Old School MTV

Remember when MTV actually played music videos? The thrill of a new release was palpable. My friends and I even had a sleepover for Oasis’s “Don’t Look Back in Anger.” With classics like ‘Beavis & Butthead’ and the iconic ‘Daria,’ we were taught sarcasm before it was cool. And who could forget the magic of ‘TRL’ and our collective crush on Carson Daly?

Jerry Springer

Oh, Jerry. You never knew what chaos awaited when you tuned in. From brawls to outrageous love triangles, it was a wild ride. Today’s bizarre shows don’t quite compare; Jerry offered a unique mix of raw emotion and unfiltered drama.

Must-See TV

Before streaming took over, network television ruled our evenings. Shows like ‘Friends’ and ‘Seinfeld’ sparked conversations at school the next day. We eagerly anticipated the fate of Kenny and followed the teenagers of Capeside. It was a time when humor was genuine and reboots weren’t yet a thing.

The Oregon Trail

Many of us faced the trials of the Oregon Trail—ford the river, only to have your oxen perish. It was our first taste of video games disguised as education. The attempts to revive it as a card game? Epic fail. Thankfully, you can still play the classic version online or introduce your kids to this nostalgia.

Boy Bands

The ’90s gave us *NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys, elevating the boy band craze to new heights. With their synchronized dance moves and charming looks, they dominated our walls and our hearts, making our teenage years a whirlwind of fandom.

Lisa Frank

Lisa Frank products were everywhere—neon colors, unicorns, and everything sparkly. Who wouldn’t want a Trapper Keeper adorned with those whimsical designs? And yes, I still believe grown-ups can color in velvet posters of magical creatures.

Y2K

As we approached the year 2000, we were gripped by the fear of a computer meltdown. Fast forward to today, and we’re dealing with a global pandemic. Sometimes, I wish for the simplicity of worrying about Y2K.

Saved By the Bell

Yes, Zack Morris might be trash, but there was a time when we couldn’t get enough of Bayside High. Watching Jessie deal with caffeine pills was a rite of passage. The recent reboot just doesn’t capture that nostalgic magic.

TGIF

Fridays were sacred with shows like ‘Family Matters’ and ‘Full House.’ TGIF was the highlight of our week, and we all wished we had Mr. Feeny as our teacher.

Old School Video Games

Nothing compares to the nostalgia of classic gaming. Nintendo and Game Boy games like ‘Goldeneye’ and ‘Sonic the Hedgehog’ are still ingrained in our hearts.

Dear ’90s, you were unparalleled. Even if we thought our Furby was spying on us and mourned the loss of our Tamagotchis, your charm is missed. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a little less social media and a little more Pop-Up Video in our lives?
