WONDER YEARS ALERT!!!

[RedHotChiliPrepper]

Was looking around on justin.tv for something to put on in the background while I put the paper together and I found someone broadcasting uninterrupted episodes of The Wonder Years. Thought everyone would enjoy this.

A couple years ago for Christmas my girlfriend got me the entire series on DVD. It was obviously downloaded from a computer (claims she couldn't find it in a store anywhere) but the quality is 100% fine. I love that show. This site deserves a Wonder Years thread.

I don't think it's officially on DVD. They had trouble getting the licensing fees and stuff for all of the music, I believe, so it was never officially released. So this is the best I get for now.

Yeah I believe she found the ("bootlegged" box set for sale online somewhere. Great stuff.

There were two random episodes on one of the stations over here at like 2 a.m. a few months ago. Don't think I've ever seen it again.

Oddly enough, they featured David Schwimmer as Kevin's older sister's boyfriend, with whom she broke up in the first episode, then married in the second. The first proved that the role of whiny breakup victim came naturally to him.

A local station used to air episodes all the time. Haven't seen them in a long while, so I guess they quit airing them.

Torrents, my friends. Torrents.

It's on once in a blue moon on either MyTV or THIStv, can't remember which one though.

Sorry I didn't find this earlier tonight, but some new network called The Hub (294 on DirecTV) just started running The Wonder Years. The pilot episode just ended and it looks like it's running the series in order.

Just before The Wonder Years, what looked to be the pilot episode of Family ties was on, and right now the pilot episode of Doogie Howser MD is on.

OH. My. Gosh. Hub has Fraggle Rock reruns.

Indeed it does. Children's programming during the day and "family" programming at night.

What I found out late last night after the Doogie Howser pilot was they ran the first two episodes of Happy Days (I guess the first Happy Days was actually on Love, American Style). I forgot how enjoyable that show was in the early years before jumping the shark.

From what I've seen online, the Hub used to be Discovery Kids.

Yup. The kids toy company Hasbro bought a 50% interest in it and it has tweaked the night-time programming. There were a number of Hasbro toy commercials last night.

I have this odd channel called RTV (Retro Television). I've gotten hooked on "Ironside" reruns.
