The kid having his own walkman at home. Someone is raising a legend.

[xdeathknightx]

You know you're old when the producers confidently get things wrong because they never experienced it either :D

[lipstickcloud]

The kids have really fun personalities here, so cute. Them know stuff from 4 or 5 decades before they were even born!
As a kid in the 80's, I wouldn't have been able to name a bunch of stuff from the 30's and 40's,
besides Laurel & Hardy.

I'm generally impressed by kids and young adults today who can grow up in the crazy world we've created for them and be reasonably well adjusted. Thanks for giving them a supportive platform.

[jzarbaugh]

According to the actual song “Valley Girl”, the term is “barf me out”. And it didn’t mean to freak out. It was something you said when you were grossed out. In the song it was followed by “gag me with a spoon”, which was similar.

[stevenkaye]

Gotta give these kids credit -- they did pretty well!

[rockyroad]

Jane Fonda was doing aerobics. Jazzercise was a "brand" of dance aerobics that Jane Fonda had nothing to do with.

[ducomaritiem]

Hey kids, I'm 61, lived through the sixties, seventies and eighties! Seen it, been there. Now I'm a tech-teacher, still love you kids! Great reactions!

[nataliedunn]

holding the cassette player "I've always wanted to see one of these in person".... is anyone else feeling old right now?!😭

[Dbear]

Amelie describing the Hello music video & Gina looking lost 😂😂😂

[micker]

This was how much fun the 80's were. Just fun movies and music. We lived in the moment and could have peace and freedom. We actually watched and listened to a concert and didn't sit there filming it with our phones, to impress people on Facebook.

[marinapappas]

As a teen in the 80s, this video was pure nostalgia for me. Definitely felt my age watching this! 😂

[phreak]

I am pretty impressed. These kids got way more than I thought they would.

[hillardschlachman]

Michael J. Fox in The Fast and the Furious - 😂😂😂😂😂

[wolfiep]

I was born in 70's and grew up in 80's, the best decade EVER for music.

[Tirryna]

2:01 I don't remember calling them parachute pants. We all called them Hammer pants when I was a little kid.
Parachute pants were what we called the huge-legged jeans in the late 90's.

[conchubar]

These kids give me faith in the future, non dismissive of the past styles, culture etc and did so well with the questions

[paulfrank]

I was a teen in the 80s. Some of this stuff is inaccurate, and some of the slang and styles were regional or only used as a joke.

[johnb-k]

Even though they got a few things wrong, I am actually impressed with their knowledge of the 80s. I think they did much better than the millennials/young people react group did on an early show.

My faith in anyone younger than a Xennial is being slowly restored!

[UnrealDreamgirl]

The producer said "Indigo Montoya" for the record there's no 'd' it's "Inigo Montoya"

[DjVanillaGuerilla]

"And I give it to someone special" 💀. So happy Gina caught that right away lol
