Every time I see this topic, I flinch. Or I shudder. Take your pick. As an adult struggling in the 80s, with Ron & Nancy in the White House & their political ideas only really being good for very wealthy people & meanwhile something like a modern day plague was killing more & more friends who were also young adults, ... it would require another term, certainly not nostalgia or the good ole days. But, it does explain why escapism in soaps became a much sought after criteria.

Looking back on the 1980s as an adult.

1984 the peak.

1986 s--- got real w/ the AIDS crisis, Space Shuttle Challenger, Chernobyl.

1989 the world was on the verge of change w/ Reagan leaving office, Tiananmen Square, Berlin Wall.
