I remember this show and would watch every week. Rob was very good. Sonya was a family friend and my sister's best friend from first grade. She went on to do well at a PBS station in a northern state. I can't recall if it was Minnesota or Wisconsin. She passed away while living there. We still miss her terribly.
I loved this as a kid and still do really glad I found this RUclips channel!!!!!
2021 same poop, different century
The only thing that has really changed regarding the subject matter here is the fashion and hairstyles.
My home state Louisiana
Same old, Same old, just different time.
Those teenagers look like they are in their late 30s!!!!
At the end whats going on ?? Im from France originally from Senegal and I'm just... woaaaw I never thought I will see after an American show
🙏🙏🙏
I heard the 80’s gangs was vicious, South Side wrecking crew, Zion city Smurfs I wonder if any one is left from that generation to tell those stories, heard Bon Marche mall had allot of shootouts in it in the 80’s
Wait… crime wasn’t invented by this generation? 🤔 the cop in the Yankees jersey is literally describing Youngboys in 1986
did they get the ages of the guys in the group wrong or something ? that dude is no way 17 he gotta be 37 easy
Teenagers in the 80s all looked like they were in their 30s. All of em.
21? More like 57 9:45
Wow that opening theme is awful. It like the Good Times theme on crack.
Wow everyone was so young! Many have become Elected Officials, Church Leaders and Educators! Hands on with the community, Right? Did we loose a generation or did WE FAIL the generation? Relationships must be formed between Leaders and the generation and those to come! The Ministry of Jesus was seen by all because He walked among the people! He didn't build a structure and say "if you want what I have, come over here"! He met them where they were!
