Back then, if you missed an episode you couldn't watch it until there were reruns…
Remember back in the day when you could only watch something if it was playing in theaters or if you got the print TV Guide and planned ahead to stay in and watch it? What a wild time. Like, we miss it but we don't at the same time, you know? Like, we're grateful that we can watch anything we want at any moment, whether it's streaming or pirating it. But we also miss the ritual of really wanting to watch something for months, then it finally being aired on TV or released in theaters and you plan a whole day around it. You can't really do that anymore… Is it weird that we kind of miss flipping through the pages of the TV Guide? It was just a fun little thing that was lost with the times. Kids will never understand that kind of movie magic anymore. Heck, they wouldn't even understand these memes if they haven't seen some '80s classic, amiright??
Speaking of movies from the 80s, check out these fun Back to the Future memes here!
