TV Go Home

Is this just 1990, as I initially thought, or the 90s in general?

If it's the latter I'll be going bonkers with suggestions...


...which reminds me of two other 1990 things:

First-ever series of Have I Got News For You, back when it was good, and occasionally genuinely dangerous.

Whose Line Is It Anyway? (started the previous year, now in its prime).

Elderly Sumo Prophecy

Global Hypercolor t shirts
Reebok Pump (another Reebok. Seems they defined the decade like nothing else)
Belgians in the Congo

Blumf

Animation shows:

The Simpsons (obviously)
Liquid Television, especially Aeon Flux
Duckman
Dr. Katz
Beavis and Butt-Head
Daria
Dilbert
King of the Hill
South Park
Space Ghost Coast to Coast

Loads more, but I think most of them are pretty definitively 90s.

90s. It's a contemporary exhibition in France, in my imagination.

You'd need to put more French stuff in then. Vanessa Paradis, that sort of thing. The suggestions so far are pretty Anglocentric.

Ridiculous Music Trend Room, containing fine examples of

Second Tier Shoegazing ( Chapterhouse and that )
Romo ( I dunno, not Orlando  they were alright)
Camden Lurch ( Again, a lot of these bands were pretty decent )
The New Wave Of New Wave ( These Animal Men)
Whatever It Was That Verve Were ( " The" Verve)

^ Very sorry, monsieur, these pieces will not be in the exhibition.

Elderly Sumo Prophecy

Going to under 18 discos where they play Scatman and Set You Free by N-Trance and hoping that this will be the night where you get to stick your hand up a girl's jumper. Aged 47.

Well, fuck off, then. Bet you're perfectly happy to stick that bird in her wonderbra in there.
