There was always a bad kid that the normal kid would befriend, despite the possiblilities of deception or blackmail. He was always cunning, an brown noser to the clueless parents, a deceptive liar, and a big con artist. He was one of those lovable jerks you never would have hung out with and wouldn't want to be caught in any of his crazy pranks. Which do you think was the ultimate 80s bad kid of its hey day? We are done with the teen idol status...now on to the bad seeds of the 80s? You could pick any era, remember(50s, 60s, 70s, or 80s) and list them...

Here is mine:

Jason Bateman(Derek in Silver Spoons, Mathew Burton in It's Your Move, and David Hogan in The Hogan Family)...the prankster, the ultimate jerk, the egotist who thinks he is God's gift to women, wants others to suffer instead of him...

What's yours?

Mike seaver Growing Pains

I agree on Mike Seaver, uh, Kirk Cameron. Ever since he made that appearance on Full House and has that nature thing about his skin being beautiful...that is so you, Mike Seaver...:lol:

Bart Simpson!

Eddie Haskel -Leave It To Beaver

Darlene Conner,Becky Conner.-Started late 80s.
Bart Simpson
Homer Simpson

As far as 80s bad kids go, how about Wesley T. Owens (Mr. Belvedere)?? :lol:

I like Eddie, too, but Jason Bateman was the bomb back then..

I especially cracked up whenever he is on in Silver Spoons.

David Hogan, Mike Seaver

The mid-to-late '80s definitely was the era of rebellious teenagers!

Jason Bateman was the first actor I thought of! He was a wonderful brat.
