I really like this show. I have to catch up w/ a couple of episodes I missed this season, but I it's pretty much appointment TV for me.

One thing that seems to bother people, that doesn't bother me much, is how they seem to blend the pop culture of the whole decade together (the show is based in the 1980s, for those who don't know). I have no issue w/ it, as my memories of the decade are usually that way anyway. I don't think, "well, I watched Master of the Universe from 1984 until 1988" or "I played X video game in 1989". No, my memories of stuff like that are just blended. That's kind of how the show handles things.

I also really like the fact that they based the show off of home movies the creator, Adam F. Goldberg, made during his childhood.

Now that #Selfie is #OffieTheAir, I hope they move it back to Tuesdays before Agents of SHIELD.

Yeah, he does say "it was 1980-something," and that's kind of how I remember that decade too. The home movie clip at the end is a really nice touch.
