      Hi. Thanks so much for stopping by my channel and watching my 80's video. I'm so sorry you didn't find some of these TV shows in my video, but there is a very good reason why. Punky Brewster is actually included in my Kid's TV Shows Intros video. You can watch that video here: ua-cam.com/video/OgRGxEkBejg/v-deo.html - and CHiPs, Dukes of Hazzard, All in the Family, Happy Days, MASH, Sanford and Son, Lavern and Shirley, Facts of Life, Fantasy Island, The Love Boat, The Six Million Dollar Man, and The Incredible Hulk are all included in my 1970s Most Popular TV Intros, because those shows all began back in the 1970's. You can watch that video here: ua-cam.com/video/MfPaG0xGv50/v-deo.html - Growing Pains is actually included in this video here, you can locate it at the 9 minute 52 second mark - I originally had included Knight Rider, the Cosby Show, and Miami Vice in this video here, but UA-cam always would block my entire video all because of copyright, so before they would allow any part of my video to be uploaded and viewable, I eventually had to remove them from the video, which was sad because to me those shows were also a big part of the 80's, but it had to be done in order for my video to become viewable. As far as WKRP and Starkey and Hutch, both of those shows are from the 70's, and this is my 80's TV Show Intros video. And as far as the Monkees, that show began in the late 60's. And finally, as far as Airwolf, Max Headrum, and The Fall Guy, yes they were 80's shows and now I know and realize they would have been great to have been included in my video, but last year whenever I was putting together all the different 80's TV show Intros, those 3 shows, and I've come across several more that should've been included, just didn't come to mind at the time, and I didn't add them to my collection to put in my video. So I apologize for that. But other than that, you should find the other shows you mentioned, in my 2 other videos. I've provided links for those videos. I hope you enjoy them as well. Thank you again for your feedback. It is appreciated. I'm just glad you took the time to stop by and watch my video and to comment. It really does mean a lot. I work hard on all of my videos and I try to do the very best I can on them. I am truly sorry if I don't always make my videos exactly the way they would like them to be. I always go by what I considered to be my favorites as well as others I remember being popular at the time, but my memory isn't the greatest anymore. I should've done a little bit more research and refreshed my memory I guess. Anyways, thanks so much for the comment. Take care.

    As a child of this decade, looking back - everything was pretty magical. TV, the music, the movies, the food, the shopping and the social aspect of all of those. The toys, the clothes. Everything was so much more laid back. People had fun. People danced. They were happy being together.

That or while I was in school. I always thought soap operas were the only thing that ran during school hours though. That's probably not true but I did think that growing up. I remember coming home from school just in time for He-man, transformers and G.I. Joe. Then I had to do my stupid homework. 😩

    Born in ‘71, the 80’s were the best. These opening songs just bring it back for me. Life just seemed so simple back then. Of course prob like most people, we only had 1 tv in the house, so we watched after school and on Saturday daytime. I did see most of these shows now and then, some I don’t know. The drama shows that were prime time I didn’t always get too watch because that was dads time with the tv 😂 I still watch some sitcom reruns to this day when they’re on certain channels. It was funny to see the actors/actresses back then, especially on shows that I never watched, especially so young!

    Hands down the most amazing decade between the music and shows. Everything was original, no lame reality shows. Back when comedy was allowed lol.

      Hear, hear! An era before reality TV is something to be treasured. The only thing close to reality and wealth you saw on TV back then was "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous" and even then you rarely saw the actual "rich" just their stuff! Plus it had a catchy theme!

    when I see family ties and growing pains themes, I tear up.I never got to
    Experience having a family like any of those.I was passed around as a child and ended up in a children's home. I enjoy these just thinking that was my life.Strange, I know. If you got to experience this you were truly blessed.

    I grew up in the 70’s and 80’s and looking back it really doesn’t seem that long ago. The time passed so fast but I would do it all over again if I could. Now that I look around I see so many people have passed away and those that are still here from these great shows look nothing like they did. But all in all we lived in the last best decades in America and we were lucky to have lived it …what a party it was ..

    I'm so glad that I had a chance to be a young kid in the 80s. A lot of these shows and their theme songs were a signal that it was bedtime. It was a great time. Everything from watching TV together as a family in the living room, eating dinner together, and taking trips to the grocery store....everything was simple and fun. Today things don't seem as fun. I can't go to the grocery store and sample candy from the big candy bins, and we have countless TV stations, back then our TV had two dials. The top dial had 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 20, and channel U. The bottom dial, I don't know what it was for haha! We then upgraded to a TV that had a remote, and more channels and that's when being in the living room became really fun! There are many other great shows that didn't make it in this video but it seemed like every show back then was great. Thank you for uploading this video. Now I'm sitting here listening to these theme songs play while thinking about life back then.
