    Just adding my two cents that it is a great show.

    I think the fact that this thread was started yesterday and there are five pages devoted to it two days after PJ 20 was announced shows the kind of impact this show had.

    definitely, the fact that I'm watching the reruns on a daily basis speaks to its impact, even if you didn't grow up during those times.

    oh becky slater...

    Yeah, back then every boy either had a crush on Becky or Winnie. I was a Becky Slater guy too. I didn't know until today that they are really sisters. I never found Winnie that attractive as a kid, but she's grown into a very beautiful woman. But I have a hard time looking at her and not seeing this....

    I'm glad I didn't grow up on television.

    I agree, I still think Winnie is hot. She writes math books now:

    You'd think with technology today you'd be able to put the memory chip from your old DVR and put it into the new DVR. I lost my Wonder Years episodes!!! :x :evil:

    Back to the beginning of the series.

    This is one of the greatest shows of all time. I loved this show as a kid and have seen many of the reruns multiple times. It used to air on ION a couple of years ago and remember re-watching several of the episodes. Thanks for posting that it is now airing on HUB. I see they are currently in season 1. I have already set the DVR to record the next several episodes and will go through the entire series again :-D

    I agree with the OP the that voice over during the finale was sad. I think my eyes got watery when I first saw it...especially when they said the dad died. Great, Great show with great writing, acting, music....

    I have to say that Wonder Years is possibly one of the best done tv shows. I've been watching it a lot here lately, there is nothing really comparable to it on now days.

    i didnt think it was even up for a debate. its not possibly. it is one of the best shows ever. some of the best writing ever done, these episodes haunt me. one of the most realistic shows ever to air.
