Luckily, we’re big 80s and 90s nerds up in here at FFP, and we’ve put together a gnarly list of tween and teen TV shows and movies that rocked our worlds in the 80s and 90s. 

From enchanted teenage witches to super transforming robots heroes, we’ve found the most iconic examples of shows and movies that basically every kid needs to see before they grow up.

Just remember: these aren’t our educational TV shows of today. And these shows are definitely not for your little kids. “Back To The Future”, for example, has a lot more adult humor and swear words than you probably remember.
