you forgot the sound that brings all 90s kids together...the sound of getting onto the internet!
Branmnbbbsbb kkkkshshssjksksk
It both excites and gives us panic! 🤣
Couldn't use the phone. Lol. AOL and Netscape
56k modem is my ringtone :)
Dialup screech!!!!!!!
Favorite memory from back then was coming home Friday night sleepover with friends. Some pizza ordered, a movie rented from blockbuster, and end the night with friends and brothers playing N64. Those were the days
The 90s were so simple and fun. I grew up in the 90s. A era that has been hard to replicate. Early 2000s was close second. This was a major nostalgic video for sure
I was a kid in the 80's and a teen in the 90's. Miss those days so much.
the 70s and 80s were also cool
@@catluva74 going to have to take your word on that. I wasn't even a thought back then. Pretty sure it was very interesting time. The music was top tier for sure
I’m a 2010’s and 2020’s kid!
My parents are 70s and 80s kids! My siblings and my brother-in-law are all 2000’s kids/2010’s kids just like me!
I was already an adult in the 90s but I still think it was the best decade. I really loved the 90s and achieved a lot too.
My most favorite films from the 90's:
- Home Alone
- Home Alone 2: Lost in New York
- The Lion King
The 90's was a truly amazing decade when it comes to films, games, music, and TV programs.😊
Forrest Gump.
The Adam’s family
You are the absolute face of list 25. No one could do it better.
Thank you so much Tim (may I call you Tim?). That means a lot
He's also THE @$$ of List 25! Just kidding...
I miss my easy bake oven! We didn’t come inside until the lights came on at night! I was born in 1985 and I loved all of these! Thanks for the nostalgia flashback!
70s, 80s, and 90s were simply the best!
I agree. The year 2000 was just as awesome too. In many ways it was an extension of the 90s. Things started going downhill around 2004 or so.
The 90's cartoons were outstanding! From Animaniacs to Courage the Cowardly dog to Dexter's lab just to name a few. It introduced Mark Hammel's iconic Joker!!! SOUTH PARK
Don’t forget watching eyewitness in class too! The moment that TV cart came in the room, you knew it was going to be a good day! 😂 and the book fair! Damn, I miss the 90s!! It truly was the best time to grow up!! 80s made me and the 90s raised me!!!
I remember candy cigarettes. I haven’t seen those around in years. I actually used to watch brain surge on Nickelodeon. It was one of my favorite shows.
Popeye sticks are the closest! I was “smoking” chocolate cigarettes when I was 3!
As a kid of the 90’s and having seen Nirvana, Pearl Jam, STP and Temple of the Dog live I’ll admit it truly was an amazing time. Sucks so many ended up dead. RIP Kurt Cobain, Layne Staley, Chris Cornell and Scott Wyland, Andrew Wood!
Figure It Out was my life!!! I miss the 90's so much! Playing in the neighborhood until the street lights came on- they were code for "Get your butt home!"
The 90s "It" will always hold a place in my heart
You forgot the furbies acted possessed especially in groups or low batteries and would turn on at random times on a closet shelf months after being put away.
I remember those, most everybody either had a furbie or wanted one. The funny thing was you could train them how to do things. Mine could dance after a while. My uncle taught his how to cuss.
I'm blessed enough to have enjoyed 100% of the things on this list. What a blast from the past, thanks Mike!
Anytime
I had a Dukes of Hazzard peddle car as a kid. I bought my son the mustang power wheels in 2008. Time flys. Glad Mike is back.
Out all the things I loved about the 90s, BlockBuster is the one I absolutely miss the most. Going to BlockBuster every Friday to rent some movies and video games plus grabbing some popcorn, candy & soda was the highlight of my weekends and an experience that streaming cannot replicate today imho.
Blockbuster and any other video store. I miss being a kid!!
@@rickperry2196 agreed and in addition to video stores, I also miss toy stores such asToys R Us and Kay Bee Toys.
I really miss that time, not that there's anything wrong with Netflix, or Disney Plus, or any of the other online movie things. There was just something about being able to go to Blockbuster and pick out a movie and with your family or your friends and pop it into the DVD or VCR and just have an amazing night. I really miss that.
@@rosebrown4799 I definitely agree
Same!
10:39 I, too, have all of the Goosebumps books! I have some of the special edition books, too! Good looks for this pick, #List25 !
I was a 20 something in the 90s, and it was great time to be alive. I liked it better than the 80s, and I remember the grunge movement very well.
It was a terrible decade I didn't like grunge music and I was a teenager
Thank you for the dose of nostalgia this morning Mike and co.
Oh how I miss the 90s so much. Those were the best times ever!! I would give anything to go back to those times.
LISA FRAAANK! LMAO!! OMG! I can't stop laughing. I loved her.
One of my favorite memories of the 90’s Waiting till midnight on Saturdays to watch Headbangers ball on mtv and getting your VHS tape ready so you can push record on all your favorite videos so you could have a mix vhs tape of all the best music videos to play after school or when your friends came over!
Me too! 😂
It was the best! I tell my kids and just look at me like yeah alrighty Mom whatever floats your boat lmao
I loved headbanger's ball. We used to record it on the VHS. I miss when MTV used to be just that MUSIC TELEVISION 😞
In living color is hilarious!
Back when music was on MTV!
Thank you Mike!! First welcome back you look amazing!!!! And two...thank you for reminding me about growing up during that time watching Hey Arnold with my lil kids...so keep up the great work!!
Me? A child of the 70's.
We also passed notes in class.
We could spend an entire Saturday morning watching cartoons on one of the three only television networks that existed at the time.
We could listen to our favorite tunes on vinyl, on cassette or 8 track.
For a quick minute we could watch a movie on a video disc.
An afternoon of fun didn't cost a small fortune. When I was a kid admission was free at the San Diego Zoo was free for kids under 16. Most movie theaters had a double feature on the bill. Many neighborhood parks offered free summer activities.
Good times, good times!
I must admit that 90's kids did have it pretty good.
I have one child who was a 90's kid. He was definitely a fan of the Goosebumps series.
Born in 1974 so I was able to grow up in probably in my opinion the best decades.
Started a physical journal as a teen in the 80's and I've been writing on and off in them every since.
This was fun, thanks for the trip down memory lane I was a teenager in the 90's and it is probably my favorite decade.
Loved my see through landline phone. I loved going to the mall with my friends and spending hours there and then calling my mom collect and saying as fast as we could "Can you get us?" And hanging up so she wouldn't be charged.
I always look forward to List 25 new uploads, keep up the great work.
*Can't stop at just one, now you must do all the decades... maybe start with “when baby boomers; gen x, y & z’ers; etc were kids”
P.S. If you want this Gen X’ers List 25, let me know 😎
Sailormoon was pretty big in the 90s. I remembered always waiting every Sunday morning just to watch the anime even though I read the comics more than watching tv. I used to collect sailormoon cards and stickers and still remember the smell of the candies they came with.
I was a kid in the 90s and enjoyed 90% of the things on this list. IDK if I have a favorite memory since I was 7 by 2000 but I do know the clothes and jackets we wore was a style that when looking back I'm like "what did my parents dress me in?" 😂 yet when I see the blue white and purple jackets it instantly takes me back to being a kid.
So glad your back doing the list25, stopped watching when you left cuz it wasn't the same. This was a really great list, I remember the 90's and this video made me tear up a little. It was a great time in life.
I turned 21 in 1991, I stopped drinking in 1993. Lol.
Still had a chance to see 8 track in vehicles before compact disc made into every ride. Cigarette machines, ash trays made into the back of car seats, Oldsmobiles, Pogs, Nokia phones with snake, a whole different world away now.
I loved my Pogs
I grew up in the '80s and 90's and started having kids in the 2000s, as my kids grew up I made sure they got to experience a lot of the same things I did as a kid. We still to this day have a VCR and VHS tapes that we watch, a tape deck and cassettes we listen to, burnt CDs for car rides, and my girls played with Polly Pocket. My kids watch Bill Nye to help with science homework. This video was a blast from the past, I loved it.
Great Furby impression, Mike! 😁
Mike, for someone who doesn't like horror movies, you owning the GOOSEBUMPS books way back when is funnily ironic.
I know lol.
i was born after the 90's but still grew up with these stuff, I miss ittttt but great vid, keep it up :)
Lisa frank was life
Sorry Mike by the time you got to singing the Bill Nye theme song I had already done it in my head🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I currently have a collection of about 400 VHS tapes, plus 100s of Cassette Tapes, Vinyls and CDs 👌
I still keep a paper journal and write first/second drafts and do any creative writing with a pen and paper (though any coursework is typed when I hand it in). I just *love* stationary! The smell of the paper, the wonderful feeling of writing that first letter in a fresh notebook, the joy of finding a quirky stationary set or a beautiful cloth bound notebook. I can browse stationary and book shops for hours while spending my rent money! And now that I'm starting my degree soon I have an excuse to buy even more stationary! 😁🤓
I also had all of the original Goosebumps books which I passed down to my cousins who later passed them on... like a family heirloom 😂
I was in my 20’s something during the 1990’s. I still have lots of VHS tapes, CDS, only a few tape cassettes, Super NES, and even Sega Genesis. I was more into 1980’s when I was a kid. Even part of 1970’s. I was born in late July 1970. I remembered playing 8-track tapes when I was little and even record players,too. I did a lot of stuff from the 70’s and the 80’s.
I was truly a 90s kid and most of this stuff on this list. Watching Saturday Morning Cartoons should have been on here also. I remember doing all that, especially running around the neighborhood with no supervision. The 90s were an amazing time to be a kid.
Who says you can't still pass notes in class?? Modern teachers might not be on the lookout for it! 🙂
Animorphs has to get an honorable mention on this. I loved those books
We need to bring back technology and trends of the 1990s. Everything today is SO complicated, digital, and technological.
Carson Daly has been and still is hosting The Voice on NBC since it started. I think he also comes on Today morning show a lot too
Carson Daly is the host on The Voice, but that is all I know about what he is doing now.
I miss watching music videos on MTV....This generation just don't know what they are missing.
I was born in 81 & my favorite show on Nickelodeon was "You Can't Do That on Television" but I believe it was in the 80's & ended in 1990.
was a teen in the 70's (Yikes) but I remember my son went from beepers to a cell phone pretty quickly. He was 12 years old! He loved Bill Nye. He's 37 now. I hope he catches this video. He lives in Tampa😄! Another good one, Mike✌️
Great video! Missed you, Mike! So glad you're back! ❤️
Me too!
Best note ever. Should we tell our parents? They will probably take it away not to mention hate us.....
Honey it's a kitten, we will be fine
I Still have my collection of VHS and still watch them too. LOL
Great countdown on memory lane !!
As a child of the sixties, we rarely passed notes, but we did whisper stuff to each other, because our desks were closer together. The only things we did throw was someone's stuff if we were teasing them or inkballs, that paper balls dipped in ink from an ink cartridge, bottle or ink well, or crisp ( potato chip ) packet water bombs out of windows. 😁
Candy cigarettes and candy necklaces go way back to at least the sixties, I ate them then. You can still buy candy necklaces in the UK.
I've still got a see through mini scanning radio from the nineties.
We had chocolate cigarettes and I was born in 1985. Those were the best! My dad was born in 1960 and tells me so many great stories!
Wow I remember those candy cigarettes we used to get those as kids in the late 1970s
@@brettboulette5106 Our candy cigarettes in the 70s also had a clever design feature; There would enough of tiny passages from end of the 'cigarette' to the other. The effect of this was that if you blew air through it you'd get a puff of powdered sugar that mimicked a puff of cigarette smoke.
Dude! Carson Daily is the host on The Voice! Original host, and they’re on Season 22! He and Blake Shelton are the only two originals left… PLUS he is Catholic, and got ordained so he could officiate Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani’s wedding on July 3, 2021! 😁
Good to know!
I took a see through landline phone to college in 2008. Everybody who saw it LOVED it!
Actually going "trick or treating" was another thing I miss. You have to go to some event or hike miles nowadays to get any candy. Its been a totally different experience for my own kids. I think I miss almost everything about the 80s and 90s though.
I was barely around in the 90's, but I remember a lot of this stuff from the 2000's. :)
NO!
ONLY 90s KIDS CAN UNDERSTAND!!!!!!!!!
It's always something said that it was simpler times in decades that passed. I just come here to watch history. I was born in 1992 and I can remember a few of these. So there was a lot of stuff in the 1990s then. The internet got popular, and went from taking several minutes to connect to being more accessible. I am the generation of watching movies on the VHS in my childhood and now I don't even watch movies on the DVD anymore. It's great to see the Internet and apps these days give us access to any music instantly. It's great to have WiFi today. I can really remember Bill Nye.
I'm happy that my kids like to pop in one of many VHS tapes once and awhile. They like to kick it ol Skool sometimes. They play NES, watch DVDS and listen to CDS as well.
I'm generation x but I still had fun in the 90's. Lol, my Mom was obsessed with Furbies😂
And I’m now away to Google to look for a Digimon Tamagotchi
Amazon has some. I got the 20th Anniversary Yellow so I could get Gabumon
@@list25 great shout! I’ve been looking at them for the past hour and went for Navy Blue for Agumon - what a great nostalgia trip. I’m a 30 year old waiting for a tamagotchi to arrive.. life’s great 👍
I miss the 80s and 90s,
I know what you mean,😞😥
Just last week I was raving about how awesome colored plastic devices were. I want!
WOW.. Thanks for the nostalgia. The 90s... The decade in which i rode my bike as kid for the last time, and also the decade I got married and had kids, man TGIF, hanging out unsupervised, u had TRL but we watched rap City.. The CD/DVD case..🤣🤣 my wife and I had separate ones. The first time I seen a translucent phone was the first time I was in my soon to be wife's bedroom.
Fond memories of the "simpler" past times (years, or epochs). As a child or the 1960's, as a surviving baby boomer, the one most important new and memorible of "new" intertainment devices was the transistor, small portable radio. Prior to then, people had non-portable, tube/plug into the wall only radios. But the transistor radio allowed to take music with us, AND, special events, like the baseball world series games, we could access between classes on school days. (usually no radios were allowed during classroom-times).
Also, many of us boomers gained more from our teenage experiences, that we could use in the adult world, from the simple fact that most of us were REQUIRED to pay attention in classrooms, and learn, or else "get into" trouble for not behaving well enough. If this sounds "restrictive" or repressed, and it was, so why didn't this repression cause problems? Because it gave us a sense of what the limits in life were, especially "gettin' rich". The make more wealth ideals of the 1980's was just a load of hype and hustle, and this failed. And that failure was unavoidable, but a much higher percentage of people, us AND our parents were aware of what was going on. We had a much more disciplined manner (some of us) of reviewing current news and events, and most of this was due to having confidence in our knowledge and understandings. A good educational background was the main key element, along with freedom of speech and of the press/media news stories. Now, this isn't about most of the boomers being smarter or better, we were just who we were, when we were.
Thanks Mike, good to see you back and presenting your fine video programs. Go RUclips! Go git 'em! 🤗
As a Noughties kid...I must admit, I never heard of the Grunge until recently, so I wondered wondered about it, thanks for posting
Gotta throw a nod to Gen X here too! 😉
I was a child of the 70's!🤣
Ya get out of here ya jive turkey this a 90s kid video lol I'm just kidding.
You forgot the Dread of someone finding your journal and reading it.
Ok Mike! I love your videos! And I have to say that being a child in the 70s & my teen years where the 80s… but we had candy necklaces, pixie styx and we had the candy cigarettes way back when… but our candy cigarettes had the red little tips. My daughter who was born in the mid 90s never saw them with the red tips. But I do love watching your videos! Please keep them coming!!!
Deal
I still play my game boy.
Me too! Tetris for the win!
Oh by the way Mike if you're curious Carson Daly is currently the host of the voice and has been since the show started but I'm not sure what he's doing outside of that
We late ‘60s, early ‘70s kids had notebooks and paper tablets with rainbows, and butterflies, sort of a prelude to the Lisa Frank style. And Osmond and Partridge Family faces. Whenever a girl swung her locker door open, there was a pic of Donny, or David Cassidy, or Bobby Sherman. OMG, now I’M getting nostalgic!
In the UK our game shows were Get Your Own Back, 50/50 and Funhouse. Some of the things on this list must had been US specific because I don't remember them in the UK.
Pixie Sticks and Candy Necklaces came out in the 1950's and Candy Cigarettes date back to the 1930's. All of them are still available today. Candy Cigarettes are harder to find but they are still available in some Candy Stores. They also come in a smaller size as "Candy Sticks" in boxes with cartoons. Thank You, Dollar Tree for childhood candy.
I was a pre-teen/teen in the 90's and I remember all this stuff vividly, Fun Fact: I still have my Blockbuster Video card.
I just saw Polly Pocket toys at Target lol. They're definitely still around. Sure, they look different than they did in the 90's, but they still exist.

80's and 90's was definitely a different time kids today really won't get to experience....kind of sad. But amazing how they can ask their phones anything and get an immediate answer to Any curious questions they have. For us, it was either a process to find out or we'd just shrug our shoulders and speculate.
good times I had as a 90s kid
While reading a film reference book, I discovered that some fifties films, were remakes of thirties films, so a Hollywood obsession with remakes is nothing new.
No indeed!
thats right nitggh wirñg remakes
Oh the memories of watching all the shows on TGIF. Thank God Its Friday !!! Once I sat down on the couch me not moving until it done. Legend of the Hidden temple was a great show on Nickelodeon as you actually learn how to work as a team as well as history
My fondest 90s memories - Friday night. You ask your mom if your friend can sleep over. She says yes and takes you to Blockbuster to rent some movies and maybe a PS1 game. Dinner rolls around and you get pizza, Bagel Bites, or Hot Pockets. Saturday morning you and your friend take your bikes and you are gone for hours before anyone starts asking questions.

I grew up during the '70s and '80s and I had a diary with a lock my brother's kept reading lol so my senior year I learned how to write Gregg style shorthand like they use in offices at the time... I drove my brother's crazy because they couldn't read it
I JUST saw a Polly pocket the other day at Target with my niece.
I even said, “I can’t believe that’s still a thing” my niece got mad at me for being OLD
8:10… Wild and Crazy Kids was also there in the line up :)
Big fan of that show!
my sister still has her gameboy to this day. and yes it still works. i believe she has a Kirby game for it
This brought back a lot of memories 😂 Although my 7 year old daughter seemed very unimpressed with a lot of the toys. Children today have no taste 😄
yes get her gi kart or àtv
I’m a 70’s kid, (boomer), but these lists are fun to watch.👍🙌🇺🇸
Dude, I still have a large VCR collection, and 3 VHS machines. My daughter has no idea what they are, lol.
Nothing like the 90's, such a dope time, and such a dope video. Well done Mike!🙏
Technically you can still pass notes and have a physical journal.
...and although you can have VHS tapes, cassette tapes, and CDs, they are definitely not seen as much.
...so many remakes. I own the Parent Trap, the sequel and the remake.
...I recently found an unopened AOL disk.
...also my profile asked what computer I had...so I said that I didn't have one, I accessed the internet using an old shoe.
Renting movies and games for a week was awesome. It actually helped to see if they were good to buy or not.
Never heard of Polly pocket. Golly Gee, I must have slept through the 90s. I remember Blockbuster, Beany Babies, and getting regular AOL, but not much more.

Since I was born in 1979. So I got a feel for the 80s as a child but most definitely the 90s left a mark in my life as a preteen and teenager. All my 10's were in the 90s pretty much 😂😂😂
I see the 90s like the 60s. There was so much going on in music, pop culture, politics and just changed the world in general to what we still live today. And that in a nutshell is what the 60s did for that generation and we got a taste of that in the 90s.
Definitely a decade of seeing a lot of things for the last time and some for the first time.
I had a 2 300 cd/dvd cases both full, one for music, one for movies. It took me almost 4 months to put all of them on a 8tb media drive, whew.
Every decade had it's own uniqueness about it but I still say the 80s we're the best!!🎉🎉
I remember hearing alot of Brittany and Christina. Then the rap and hip hop. Remember when every car had the speakers, Ba-boom. Don't miss that!✌️

Just a few things.... first, this video is awesome! I was a teen for most of the 90's so experiencing all of these things was amazing! Thanks for the nostalgia!
Second, R.L. Stine had another horror book series called 'Fear Street'. These were my favorite! They were geared more towards tweens and teens, where Goosebumps was more for the 12 and under crowd. I read and owned both series at one point in time, but they're now gone due to a fire, a flood and some lovely storm damage many moons ago.
Last, we never had a Blockbuster in rural PA. Our "chain" rental place here was West Coast Video. Does anyone else remember those? They were absolutely everywhere! Even the tiniest of towns had at least one WCV. We also had a ton of mom and pop video places too, where when the chain decided to raise their rental prices, the mom and pop store stayed the same price, or offered longer rental times or 2-for-1 specials. I so miss brick and mortar rental places! Redbox just isn't the same!
Love seeing you back Mike! Keep up the great work! ❤️
