Why am I posting so much today? Because today, in the Yano-Estacio household, it's "Cleaning Day". Which means I clean a little, surf a little, Dave catches me, and I clean a little more, then when he's not looking, surf a little. *evil grin*
Anyway, the thing that I have been waiting almost 20 years is here. Jem is out on DVD! Yes, pinch yourself, girls, this isn't a dream! Wheeeee!!! Rhino has put out seasons one and two out on DVD, and hopefully seasons three and four are soon to follow. I'm beside myself right now! Yay! Yay! Yay!
This totally brings back memories of sitting in front of the TV, waiting for Jem to come on, with my VCR ready and a tape recorder in hand. Yes, not only did I tape a bunch of the episodes, I had all the songs taped, too! Unfortunately, the tape was destroyed in some weird college incident, probably having to do with alcohol and big shoes.
Anyway, now I have to save up the cash to buy it!

when i was a kid, not only did i tape the shows, i had the colouring books, the backpack, and the dolls to boot. i'm a firm believer that 80s kids had, without a doubt, the BESTEST cartoons!!
the new transformers in space just isn't the same, dammit!!
Posted by: bernadette on April 10, 2004 04:43 PMholy shit, batman, it's JEM!! dude, i LOVED jem, i had the jem doll with the special light-up earrings...and y'know what? out of all the damn barbie dolls i had, all the ones i used to chew their hands off or rip off their heads or swing them around by their hair calling myself playing "helicopter" with them, i never did that to my jem dolls. i actually LIKED them.
oh, man...nostalgia... *falls over*

Jem was the pinacle of all 80's cartoons...well, next to Rainbow Brite, the Care Bears, and doesn't anyone remember "Poochie"? That pink haired dog that had a time machine and traveled through history? Ok, maybe I'm the only retard that watched that.

Posted by: April (lil ape) on April 10, 2004 05:41 PMApe, don't feel alone. I watched Poochie, too. Even had a Poochie necklace with a Poochie locket.
