If you could go back to any decade from 1900 to 1990s, which would it be and why?

Rene · 09-30-2005, 11:42 PM

the 90s, i miss it the shows, the clothes, the music- it was alll great

AD FAN · 09-30-2005, 11:44 PM

Definately the 60s: Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr, Beatles, Beach Boys, Dylan, Space Race, the clothes, etc., etc.

Southern Hellraiser · 09-30-2005, 11:44 PM

A bunch of my favorite TV shows started in the early 90's, but I was too young to know anything.

Karen* · 09-30-2005, 11:45 PM

It would be either the 80s or 90s. I was born in the 80s, but everything about growing up in that decade seemed so interesting. I love the 90s too because that's the decade in which I grew up.

I've always wanted to go back to the 1920's. Flappers, speakeasies, all that stuff. It always just seemed like a great era to live in. But you know once the Depression hit, I'd like to be transported back to the present.

The 70's. It was a great decade to grow up in.

Nighthawk76 · 10-01-2005, 12:35 AM

1960's...I've always wanted to experience the sixties first hand.

PZelda · 10-01-2005, 01:25 AM

I grew up in the 1980's for a while, as a little kid. So...I'd like to go to the 1960's and live 'em out, as well as the rest of the decades... Groundbreaking 1960's, campy and doped-up 1970's and the wild and colorful 1980's. The 1990's weren't that bad...Not my favorite decade, though. I miss 1990 - 1992 and wouldn't mind reliving those years.

One thing I would have loved to do, if I had been around then, was to go see 9 to 5 when it hit theaters in December of 1980. It would've been a lot of fun to see it in theaters.

vashti1999 · 10-01-2005, 01:49 AM

The 80s were the greatest ten years of my life, I'd love to go back and stay there.

platinumblondelife · 10-01-2005, 02:18 AM

The mid/late 90s because that's all I remember since I was in 6th grade in 2000...but I <3'd elementary school, the music, shows, etc...

Mijada · 10-01-2005, 12:47 PM

I'd love to visit the early part of the 20th century. A lot of big changes going on. I would have liked to have seen when cars first became popular and I loved the clothes and the architecture back then.
