When I was little, the wonder years used to be on syndication and I only saw 2 or 3 episodes and I found it to be boring. In 2011 or 2012 I think, the hub decided to air the whole series. I started watching when the hub aired the episode where kevin joins a band. Since that moment I was hooked and couldn't stop watching. They aired the whole series 4 or 5 times before they suddenly took it off the air. I could relate to the show a lot more now that I wasn't a kid anymore. I like how it was realistic especially the ending. Life doesn't always work out the way you want it. I loved the episode where kevin gets dumped by winnie at the observatory. The face he makes is the same face I made the last time I got dumped. It also reminded me why I don't want a relationship. Another touching moment(which I think I remember it wrong) is when kevin sees winnie at a party or he gets dumped by her at a party and he goes home and see's his dad in the garage and he just cries in his arms. It's powerful stuff. Then there's the episode where kevin goes to the dance with his lab partner and she ditches him and the hot girl kevin wanted to go with also ditches him. He finds himself looking around for winnie cooper and she is looking for him too and they almost run into each other but they don't. Watching that show reminds me a lot of my childhood and it depresses me but it is really touching. TV shows just don't have that effect on people anymore.
