    I was born in 2003 but I wish I was a time traveler to see and experience all of the 1980’s and 90’s. Great music, movies, and no social media.

  3. TWSTF 8 on November 22, 2022 at 6:06 pm

  4. April Hitchcock on November 22, 2022 at 6:07 pm

    My parents waited in line for 3 hours to get me a Tickle Me Elmo… I was 13 😂. But my own children now cherish that sweet little fuzzy doll.

    I wanted a bowl cut so bad, and my mom refused. She said "you will thank me in 20 years once it’s out of style". She was right, thanks mom.

  6. Al Dizzle on November 22, 2022 at 6:10 pm

    now u see beanie babies at yard sales for 3 for dollar. lol.

  7. Christian on November 22, 2022 at 6:10 pm

  8. Armin Sanjana on November 22, 2022 at 6:10 pm

    Sadly the PC world we live in nowadays,, we’ll never have raunchy comedies…

  9. joseph lafrance on November 22, 2022 at 6:10 pm

  10. Seth Wooten on November 22, 2022 at 6:11 pm

    Funny how all these trends seem to come back slightly modified every 20 or so years

  11. SelfMade 128 on November 22, 2022 at 6:13 pm

    The 90s is unmatched!
    The amount of nostalgia in this video! 🙌🏾
    Just wished you would put arcade gaming somewhere in here! 🕹

  12. Cobra Commander on November 22, 2022 at 6:14 pm

    The 90s was the best era for disaster movies to you forgot anything Pokemon and the internet dial tone and the game consoles and games and how 3d gaming was pioneered in the 90s.

  13. Hannia on November 22, 2022 at 6:14 pm

    I want to go back there 😭

  14. joseph lafrance on November 22, 2022 at 6:15 pm

  16. Rashaun Williams on November 22, 2022 at 6:17 pm

  17. Maddie Olson on November 22, 2022 at 6:18 pm

    😁

  18. Super Mad on November 22, 2022 at 6:20 pm

    There was no trends in the 90s .. there was only … Life!

  19. Paganavenger89 on November 22, 2022 at 6:22 pm

    Grunge is bad ass! 😎

  20. Bob Laubach on November 22, 2022 at 6:26 pm

    South Park began in 1996; Family Guy began in 1999—notable mentions.

  21. Fresh Brewed ASMR on November 22, 2022 at 6:30 pm

    I was born in 97 and yet I wished I grew up in the 90s. One of my favorite movies from the 90s is Hocus Pocus

  22. joseph lafrance on November 22, 2022 at 6:35 pm

    the slave look

  23. Xhris Sharp on November 22, 2022 at 6:36 pm

    Where’s Pokemon

  24. LavenderPants86 on November 22, 2022 at 6:37 pm

    I was hoping you would mention the guy who paid $500 to get a ticket me Elmo so he could run over it with a steamroller.

  25. Antonio Jaramillo on November 22, 2022 at 6:37 pm

    It’s funny hearing my teen daughter tell me I was born in the 1900s makes me laugh because to me the 1900s is the early 1900s not 70s

  26. Browns Fan on November 22, 2022 at 6:38 pm

    Forgot to mention Alice in Chains in the grunge era. STP wasn’t from Seattle

  27. sargonsrobot2 on November 22, 2022 at 6:38 pm

    I wish the afterlife can send me back to the 1990s

  30. valemon de la rosa on November 22, 2022 at 6:39 pm

    AND Selena?

  31. Sifilore on November 22, 2022 at 6:39 pm

    U missed 1, superheroe shows. DC and Marvel animations were at their best like Superman, Batman, Spiderman, X-Men, and many more. There was also anime like Sailor Moon, and live-actions of Power Ranger, VR Troopers and others. While there were great super-shows from the 70’s, 80’s, 2000’s , and 2010’s; the 90’s brought them higher up then ever. Especially with Batman, X-Men, and Gargoyles introducing dark elements for the first time.

  32. Catrina G. on November 22, 2022 at 6:39 pm

    I still watch Beverly Hills 90210 on hulu. They graduated on the show in 93 like I did so the show will always have a piece of my heart.

  33. TeamRaptor on November 22, 2022 at 6:41 pm

    Glad my old ass was able to experience the 90s

  34. Italianneese on November 22, 2022 at 6:42 pm

    Nineties were the last decade before the world completely started going south. Social media is the biggest contribution to the decline of humanity

  35. Fiona Hamilton on November 22, 2022 at 6:42 pm

    The racheal is now the Karen

  36. smolincubusbf on November 22, 2022 at 6:43 pm

    Yes the 90s back when I wore diapers and took naps in a playpen with my barney blankie

  37. Michael Totman on November 22, 2022 at 6:46 pm

    The tickle me Elmo reminds of A experience u had with my talking storytime but bird….yah Danika Kirkpatrick

  38. Lee Tharachai on November 22, 2022 at 6:46 pm

    You forgot Pokémon!!

  39. Jaxon Barbee on November 22, 2022 at 6:48 pm

    My uncle bought 4 of the tickle me Elmo’s thinking it was a geinus investment they ended up being so mass produced he ended up donating them a few years ago

  40. Raven Zosaries on November 22, 2022 at 6:50 pm

    I’m surprised pokemon wasn’t on here

  41. sasha murashi on November 22, 2022 at 6:51 pm

    what makes it strange to me is that I was born in the late 2000s and somehow knew watch 90s cartoons

  42. Garett Wolff on November 22, 2022 at 6:56 pm

    I never understood beanie babies and never will that SNL sketch you showed was hilarious tho.

  43. Emma McIntosh on November 22, 2022 at 6:57 pm

    No mention of Britney Spears. I am stunned!

  44. OR lord on November 22, 2022 at 6:59 pm

    Let’s put something straight: "macarena" is NOT! "Latin" is from Spain 🇪🇸 and most of us latinos would appreciate if you clarify the statement, thank you!

  45. Branden Drew on November 22, 2022 at 7:00 pm

    I was to young back then but I watch the 90ds cartoons and play with toys from the 90ds and I’m 30 now what crazy times I miss it .

  46. James on November 22, 2022 at 7:00 pm

  50. Sabrina Marie on November 22, 2022 at 7:03 pm

    I swear Gen X was stuck as the turn key kids so much that we all bought TONS of toys and fun stuff for our kids and thats why there is like massive abundance of 90s toys colors etc. Then the internet came along and now everyone just wants tech lol
