Reunion

Nevermind the fact that I get the Erasure song stuck in my name every time I mention the name of this wonderful new show. Set your TiVo now for Thursday night to record Reunion. Or, I suppose you could do it the old fashioned way and actually watch it. I recorded the premiere last week and didn't get around to watching it until Monday night.

The characters graduated from highschool in 1986, the same year that I finished 6th grade. Each episode is a year, with a few scenes from the present day thrown in. I loved thinking back to 1986 as I watched it. The soundtrack brought back a lot of memories too. One character said "Wham is the next Beatles" and later in the episode was watching an Ah Ha video on MTV. Love it!

What really hit me was how different life is now that I thought it would be when I graduated from highschool. Or even more recently, how much has happened/changed in the 9 short years since college graduation.
