Who remembers and misses this show? This was one of the best shows that's ever been made and I loved it so much. I'm happy I watched it on reruns when I was a child. This is the one show I want on DVD so bad, but the music rights is killing it.
Shows: 6.27.08 Hartford, CT/5.15.10 Hartford, CT/6.18.2011 Hartford, CT (EV Solo)/10.19.13 Brooklyn/10.25.13 Hartford

    Did you have a crush on Winnie Cooper? ;)
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    This has happened to a few shows, Ally Mcbeal, Daria, they finally came out, after they replaced the music w/ stuff they had rights too,music companies suck!

    Also Freaks and Geeks. That's on DVD now. I started watching it on IFC yesterday and loved it! Already ordered the box set today on Amazon. With The Wonder Years, they used 350+ songs, so to cover that is hell.

    I loved this show as well. They were playing reruns of it up until a few years ago on a few stations in my area.
    Is it true that Paul is Marilyn Manson?

    I loved the episode where Kevin goes to work with his dad, and see's all shit he has to take, and comes home just as pissed as him :D There were some very real moments in every episode.

    There are still reruns of it in my part of the world.
    Still can't believe I met Mike Mccready at the Guggenheim and got a pic with him!!!!!

    Did anybody watch "Boy Meets World"? it wasn't as good as Wonder Years, but not a bad show.

    I watched it when nothing else was on...I like celebrity gossip shows and Mr. Z will tolerate me watching 'The Dish' because he likes 'Topenga' and she hosts it.

    I'd kill for a DVD release of this..
    'I want to hurry home to you
    put on a slow, dumb show for you
    and crack you up
    so you can put a blue ribbon on my brain
    god I'm very, very frightening
    and I'll overdo it'

    one of those shows that even 10 15 years later still is imprinted on my mind. The show effortlessly walked and treaded the line between touching emotional moments that were goosebump enducing and comedy as well as some history thrown in as well.

    the writing on the show was flawless. some of the best in tv history. many of the episodes still are in my mind.

    hell of a show

    For our family it appealed to my kids, then elementary age, but also to JB and I because the setting was when we were kids in the 60's. That made a perfect family show for family time but I would have to say we watched it long after the kids grew out of it ;)

    Absolutely loved the wonder years and yes fancied the peachy arse off Winnie :lol:

    Wish it was back on our screens or on DVD :(
    I need a coffee!

    We won't see it on DVD for a long time; they have to clear ALL the music rights in the show.

    I hear youtube has full episodes, in three videos, on there.

    Reality T.V., which was fun for like the first two years, but got old quick, atleast in my opinion.
