    The Cheers theme song encapsulates a whole region of my childhood brain. I still get chills of nostalgia whenever I hear it.

    Also, the theme to Trailer Park Boys builds a particular ball of sadness and nostalgia in my stomach.

        Yeah the visuals of seeing those turn of the 19th century bar-goers was what got me most. I was just old enough to want to be interested in what the grown ups were into. I think I thought Ted Danson was a “cool guy” and I had a crush on Kirstie Alley. Other than being given studio audience ques, I’m not sure I followed any of the plot. In the same vein, I watched Moonlighting because I thought it would make me clever. Looking back I was probably the kind of kid that I would have found annoying.
