A long time ago, about three decades back, there were no streaming platforms, no YouTube, and no other choice for TV entertainment but the TV itself. So you bought a TV program guide, circled the shows you'd like to watch, and planned your week around them (unless you had some futuristic VHS device that could record your series for you). If you happen to like one of your circled choices, a whole ritual will soon have developed - snacks were made, the phone was off the hook, the comfiest couch spot dibbed a day before, and your pee times coordinated with commercial intermissions. Even entertainment required a bit of effort in the '80s, but oh, how nostalgic it all looks now.
If you'd like to revisit those sentimental times, we've rounded up a list of the best '80s TV series. Some you might know by the heart, others looked rather silly at the time, and some of them might've skipped your radar back then. But, no matter the grounds on which you've opened this article, you'll end up binge-watching at least one of these '80s shows by the time you've finished reading.
So now, scroll on down below and check out our top contenders for the best TV series that have spawned in the '80s list - from Star Trek to Married...With Children, all of your favorite shows are here. All you have to do is pick your choice, find a streaming platform that has it (which isn't much in the '80s spirit, but so be it), and relax on your couch. Don't forget to vote for the worthiest TV series, and share this article with your friends!
