What do you wish they still made?

NenaMarie84 · August 2014

Is there a toy, snack food or article of clothes (or anything for that matter) you had as a kid that you wish you could still get today for your child to experience? Or a tv show you wish still came on for them to see? Let the reminiscing begin!

My Mom is a huge game show fan and watches the Game Show Network all the time. We visited last week and I watched several old school episodes of Supermarket Sweep! Love it!

I wish TGIF Fridays still existed with Family Matters, Step by Step..all those shows back to back Friday evenings.

@sclover92‌ They were the best weren't they?! My sister and I had bunches and would build little cities across the bedroom

bee1916 · August 2014

I also wish they would bring back the old Polly Pockets and the original American Girl dolls. For TV shows, TGIF and Legends of the Hidden Temple. I wanted to be on that show so badly!

Double Dare. I used to create an obstacle course for my sisters when I would babysit them. (They were 6 and 9 years younger than me.) One time, I filled the bath tub with oatmeal to hide a "flag." Not my best idea ever.

But they make them again! I just bought one for a friends sons birthday. He loved it! I almost bought one for myself too. I picked it up at Toys 'R' Us.

You can't do that on television, are you afraid of the dark?, Fifteen (with Ryan Reynolds!), Jem, Hugga Bunch movie and dolls......I can't find Twix peanut butter anymore....I used to eat that constantly! Now, it's only carmel.

Roses87 · August 2014

Rice krispy treat cereal.

@rgoblue what is fraggie rock?

peanutmuse · August 2014

@Roses87 -- were you born in 1987? Just curious if that's what the 87 is for. That's the only logical explanation I have for you not knowing what Fraggle Rock is, lol.

@MiaMyPuggle -- You Can't Do That On Television always gave me the heebie jeebies for some reason. I think it was the adult character, Les Lye.

NOOO! The next time I fill my car up or get groceries, I will be on the lookout. I'll be very sad if this is true!

Fraggle Rock scared me...Wasn't there something that tried to eat them??

My brother, sisters, and I would recreate American Gladiator in my house. We are lucky no one got killed. I distinctly remember flying down the stairs in a laundry basket and my brother hanging over the entry way banister just as my mom unexpectedly walked through the front door.

Also, I have no idea what Popples or Fraggle Rock was.

NenaMarie84 · August 2014

I just remembered the California Raisins show. Cartoons were so much better 20-25 yrs ago!

km_md · August 2014

I was born in 1987 and I know what fraggle rock is! No excuses lol I used to have an awesome FR book bag.

Roses87 · August 2014

@peanutmuse yes I was

SandFHasse · August 2014

@PHXmom2be‌ Some Wal Marts in AZ still sell Dunkaroos. They are usually down the snack/cookie aisle on the top by the other dunking snacks. I wish they were easier to find.

@Roses87 -- see above. Shame on you, young lady!

(And I call you "young" lady because I am ten years older than you. ::sigh::)

I hated Fraggle Rock!!! It also scared me. Loved TGIF! Full house and family matters. Saved by the bell. I played with barbies way past a normal age but those are still around.
