Knowing it's an 80s show, but there were topics dealt with that still stands the test of time. Which episode do you personally think stands the test of time.

"Breaking Point", which deals with teen suicide, has stood the test of time. Suicide among teenagers is still a major problem in 2006. Probably even more so than it was in 1981.

I'm really bad with titles, but this series had a lot of good characters and I think many episodes held up with time.

"Breaking Point" - it's chilling as the girls didn't even know there was a problem with their fellow student until it was too late.

I think the episode that stood the test of time when it came to addresing serious topics was the one where Blair's mom had breast cancer. "A Friend in Need". This still is a serious thing among women today and I thought that the point was driven home when Blair confronted her mom in the hotel room.
