Thank you!
Yes it took some time! Most of it was going through the videos to select the best match, making sure it was the official artist channel where possible, and not too ad heavy.
I’d estimate about 30hrs total but I had a blast doing it!

The pilot, season 1 is one of the best pieces of TV in history, it could almost stand as it own as a film. Most people got hooked after watching the 2hr pilot. It’s simply amazing.

Report back after you watch it! The whole first season is crazy good though; so is season two.

I will! Ill start this weekend. I recently found my parents soundtrack LP and gave it a spin. It rook me back to being and kid and being mesmerized by the opening sequence/music. I always left the room for the actual show but now i need to go back.
Also the toutube compilation of cameos on the show blows me away.
Have you heard of the wrestling tag team the Outrunners? Big time influenced by the aesthetic.

You are a legend. This was my favourite show as a teenager in the 80s, and I've watched the show a couple of times through on DVD since then. But not for a while. Reading through these lists and episode blurbs, it all comes back to me. I dont even have to hear the songs. Thank you.
