  1. I would love to see Pogs brought back. They were a terrible trend but when I was a kid nothing could bring me the kid of enjoyment that they did.

  4. Oh, I’d definitely LOVE to see those slap bracelets brought back. Those were the neatest thing ever!

  7. You know, I remember people lamenting the loss of Crystal Pepsi (thought they got overwhelmed by the SNL parody of Crystal Gravy), but I gotta say, twenty years later, I still miss 7-up Gold.

    Even found an article explaining its failure: http://www.nytimes.com/1989/02/11/business/7-up-gold-the-failure-of-a-can-t-lose-plan.html (the best part of that article is that the executives believe their focus groups on what made 7-up the um…raging?…success they thought it was.)

    But, you know, I also miss the Keebler O’Boises chips, so what do I know? Sucks growing up in a test market.

  9. There was a show on Nickelodeon called “Double Dare.” It featured trivia, wacky physical challenges, and obstacle courses. There were also sequels to the show like Family Double Dare and Double Dare 2000. I loved that show in all its forms, and wish they’d bring it back.

  11. Given the price of shipping abroad from the U.S., and the fact that seamail was eliminated a few years ago, I can very much understand why you don’t want to have a contest which includes relatively heavy items to be shipped abroad. You’d get totally raped by the postal expenses.

    Last time my husband went home to California for a visit, he shipped a bunch of stuff home and it was horribly expensive.

  12. Reruns of the 1984 Jason Bateman sit-com, “It’s Your Move”, broadcast on TV Land (or another cable network like it). With only 18 episodes, the show was ahead of its time, and deserved a bigger push.

  13. i wish they would bring back mcdonald’s deep fried volcano cherry pies. scalding hot off the fryer was the ticket baby….

  14. How about the WWF…that was great but ruined with the whole WCW and WWE and all that jazz bring back the original with Jake the Snake, Stone Cold, The heartbreak kid

  16. Wow, awesome. I want to see Crystal Pepsi brought back. Apart from that, I want them to bring back Throwback after 8 weeks because I’m loving it.

  17. I’m still bitter that Veronica Mars got cancelled. I’d love to see that movie eventually get made.

  18. Man, I would LOVE to see Legends of the Hidden Temple again. That show was too sweet

  19. I’m not sure if this was ever trendy, but there was a show on Cartoon Network some years ago called Cyborg 009 that I LOVED…but it disappeared mysteriously. Oh, and, this definitely isn’t old enough to be retro in any way, but I want Pushing Daisies back :((((

  20. Anyone remember David the Gnome? I don’t remember much, but I do remember I really liked it.

  21. I wish they would bring back “Fantasy Island” – there were always such intrigues! Such dilemmas! And of course, happy resolutions (with moral teaching) at the end of each episode.

  22. I’d like to see McGyver again, starring Christian Bale. Seems like he’s the go-to guy when it comes to reviving franchises.

  23. I’d like to see that weird drink…Orbitz. It was a clear non-carbonated drink with little edible balls in it. I remember the citrus being not too bad but the other flavors tasted like ass. I thought it was sooooooo cool, back then.

  24. I wish the Mars Co. would bring back the Marathon bar. So many people I know miss this chocolate and carmel confection that I have no clue why they ever got rid of it in the first place.

  26. I kinda wanna see John Lennon brought back, but since that can’t happen I’ll suggest Creepy Crawlers. Pointless little things…

  31. Bring back the Eek! The Cat cartoon…bring back blue creme soda…bring back white Crunch bars….bring back the original Cheesy Gordita Crunch from Taco Bell!!!….bring back M.U.S.C.L.E., (Millions of Unusual Small Creatures Lurking Everywhere)…remember those?

  33. Rondo soda. It was rugged and grapefruity and good. I miss that yellow can full o’ citrusy goodness.

  35. I gotta gets this, yo!

    (enough of that)

    Nothing would be sweeter than washing down my favorite gut bomb blasts from the past w/ this sweet nectar of gods.

    BRING BACK THE KFC CHICKEN LITTLE!!!!!
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzzh_XbblN4

    I might just settle for the “”ORIGINAL COKE”” w/ cane sugar or new episodes of “Salute your shorts” as constellation though.

  36. I would like so many things brought back but one is: The original Slice sodas with 10% fruit juice.

    @Tony: I loved It’s Your Move!

  38. I would like to see that funny guy Gary Coleman from different strokes be brought back. Oh wait, I forgot he hasn’t quite left yet.

    How about bringing Jesus back?

  40. I would love to see Vietman brought back so I could once again kill the VC for America

    and Nehi cherry soda

    THAT IS ALL

  41. Planters Cheese Balls need to come back. No other cheese ball is quite as delicious.

  42. They were a fleeting special edition, but I wish I had stockpiled a bunch of inside-out Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. Not that the original needs improvement, per se, but the inside-outs were tasty and delicious.

  43. Those awful yet hilarious 90s video game cartoons like Zelda, Mario, Mortal Kombat, and Street Fighter. “Well excuuuuuuuuse me Princess” Classic.

  46. I want vanilla pepsi back. Of all the vanilla-fad drinks out there, this was my favorite.

    I would also love to see Fruit Brute brought back.

  47. I want ABC’s TGIFs to be brought back….Step By Step, Family Matters, Full House….all of ’em….with the original cast! That would be epic! Mostly though things should stay in the past…there’s normally a reason they’ve faded from popularity 🙂

  48. I’d really like to see some old shows like Pete and Pete come back, no doubt. And yeah I know you can get it but fruit stripe gum needs to make a resurgence.

  51. I want tv theme songs to come back! You know, the catchy ones you can sing along to. Everyone knows the Cheers theme and every so often one of my friends will bust out into the Fresh Prince theme. But now we just get little instrumental blips.

  52. The Andy Griffith Show. I would love to live in Mayberry, but I would drink Pepsi with my Moon Pie!

  53. Super platform shoes. I always wanted a pair.

    Ooooh, that oatmeal with the gummy bears in it. That stuff was good.

    There used to be these flavored waters in flavors like creamsicle, those also were awesome.

  54. I would love to see “Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip” make a comeback. Brilliant show with the power of an incredible ensemble cast. The network didn’t give it enough room to get up to full speed. NBC does that these days.

    That being said, I’d like to see a comeback of the day when networks gave new shows enough time to grow into their own. Like HBO does.

  55. I would like to see fins on cars brought back and “Firefly” on television.

  57. Can we please get back either Crystal Pepsi or Snapple’s Natural Root Beer? As you can see I like clear soda that tastes like it shouldn’t be clear 😀

  58. Sour cream & onion Doritos. That’s going all the way back to the mid-70’s…but they were awesome. Or at least that’s the way I remember it.

  60. I NEED the Smurfs to come back. Not re-vamped, re-voiced smurfs; just put those original episodes back in syndication at times/channels people actually watch.

  62. Bring back Sledgehammer! because it was the best cop show ever!

    Also Kraft should not have stopped making Nabisco’s Crown Pilot crackers. Sure, they’re barely edible out of the box, but thousands of Mainers love them in their chowder or in various and sundry casserole recipes.

    And for some reason, the only discontinued cereal that comes to mind is Crispy Critters, but I don’t think my mom would ever buy it, so I don’t know if it was good or not.

  63. I would love to see Crystal Pepsi brought back, and not the second one that came out, the bona-fide original goodness that is Crystal Pepsi

  64. Mountain Dew Pitch Black, I and II. My life, complete once more!

    Oh, and all the weird flavors of Herr’s potato chips, like baby back ribs.

  67. I’m not sure if this is something I just made up, but as a kid I kind of remember popcorn that had different color powder in it so that when you popped it it would come out green, or purple! I would like to see this brought back, that is if it actually existed.

  68. Umm lets see born in the 90’s so for me i’d have to say things that i’d want back..

    1.) Rocket Power!!!
    2.) All That(Nickelodeon)
    3.) Hey Arnold

    YEah I use to love cartoons..

  70. Ha, going to show my age here, but, I’d love to see these snacks from the 80s called Peanut Butter Boppers make a comeback.

    I’m 36 years old and haven’t eaten one since I was probably 11 or so, but I *still* crave them. Fan-frikken-tastic, I tell ya.

    Oh, and the TV show Hart to Hart 🙂

  71. I’d like to see Mystery Science Theater 3000 brought back.

    In terms of beverages, definitely Orbitz, one of my favorite drinks. Or Crystal Pepsi.

  72. As part of their rebirth, I really would like to see Bennigan’s bring back the Sean O’Flannery’s Wheelhouse Burger.

    “A juicy, mouth-watering burger topped with a savory fried cheese wheel, fresh parmesan cheese, and zesty marinara sauce.”

    That is living.

  73. I would definitely like to see “The Six Million Dollar Man” brought back. Steve Austin was the coolest!

  75. Mountain Dew Pitch Black and Vanilla Pepsi (best soda ever btw)

    Choco Donuts were also hella beastly

  76. Can’t believe I’m first on this.
    Bring Arrested Development back! (George Michael Bluth just don’t know how to act.
    GOB has illusions hid behind his back…)

  78. Back in the early 80’s the preppy girls wore shapeless embroidered Mexican dresses. Let’s bring those back.

  79. I am with the Crystal Pepsi and Planter’s Cheese ball lobbies.

    I would also like to see a remake of “Close Encounters” with today’s kick ass special effects and a much hotter leading man. (Insert your favorite hunk’s name here.)

  80. I enjoyed the make 7 … up yours commercials with Orlando Jones. They aren’t that old.. but they were priceless…

  81. I wish they’d bring back SoBe Mr. Green energy soda. It was like Moxie without the horrible horrible medical taste, it was herbal and kind of sweet and actually really awesome as far as the energy boost went.

    It was also a totally disgusting swamp-muck green color that I also loved, but everyone else I know hated.

  84. I look AWESOME in a t-shirt tied with a knot or better yet with a t-shirt buckle!! Come on, t-shirt buckles! Doesn’t that just SCREAM something that Urban Outfitters would sell?

  85. 1. Dunkaroos!
    2. Orbitz (not the gum, the drink with the floaties)
    3. Stuffed Crust Pizza from pizza hut.

  87. Bring back minute maid orange! or is it still around in other places? Oh, and the oatmeal with the jelly stuff that goes on top… mmmm

  88. Light jazz. Oh Kenny G, how I miss your dulcet saxophone and chestnut locks…

  99. I would like to see not being a moron come back into style. Just a week or two of idiots not being morons would be a pleasent throwback to a more innocent time when i wasn’t mad at everything.

  102. I would really like for Ben and Jerry’s to bring back the good ice cream flavours they took away. Ei. Uncanny Cashew or Chubby Hubby

    Every time I find an ice cream I like from them, they discontinue it. Bastard.

  103. My wife is addicted to this stuff…I’d give it all to her.

    As for what i want brought back? Macgyver, man. Mac was awesome.

  105. Bring back Pushing Daises, I loved that show. I also miss Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific!

  106. On the TV front, I want Carpoolers back.

    On the food front, I want Ben & Jerry’s Rainforest Crunch back.

  107. I wish I could get those cheese puff balls that came in the canister. Those were the best, and I don’t give a goddamn if you can get round cheetos in a bag: IT’S NOT THE SAME!

    And the skip-it thing was a fun trend and I could work off the fat ass that would result from consuming canisters of cheese balls. Everywhere I go, I would have to do a little skip hop over the constantly rotating ball hooked to one of my ankles. I promise I would wear it constantly.

  108. Orbitz, Orange Julius. They exist somewhere, but they went out everywhere i’ve lived since the 80’s

  110. Oh, if only they would bring back “The Greatest American Hero”! I have the t-shirt; I’m ready when you are, William Katt!

  111. SWATCH WATCHES! Worn on the ankle…and more than one on the wrist.

    The eighties…sigh…

  112. I would kill for the revival of PB Crisps. They were amazing and should still be around. ALSO. Resses Crunchy Cookie Cups. (chocolate cookie under the peanut butter.) They were my all time favorite candy bar.

  113. Since Pepsi’s all about going back in time lately, how about a revival of Crystal Pepsi. I don’t care if it’s back for a week, month, or year, just bring it back! And not that citrus “Crystal from Pepsi” stuff, I mean the real Van Hagar “endorsed” Crystal Pepsi.

  117. Bring back good Saturday morning cartoons. I would get up at 6 am and watch till noon. It was awesome!

  120. Would love to see the bonkers candy from the 80’s come back. I used to love those things as a kid! I know they came out with a version of bonkers not too long ago, but they were sooo not the same as the original.

  121. i would love to see beanie babies come back so i can sell all of mine and make loads of money.

  122. I’d love to see a healthy economy come back. I can be mollified in the interim if Con Agra would bring back Big John’s Beans ‘N Fixin’s. Best baked beans ever.

  124. I want Nestle Alpine White bars back! White chocolate with almonds, they were SO good. Hershey’s white chocolate tastes like ass.

  125. I want the Beetlejuice cartoon back. I know I’m probably the only person who actually watched it but I freakin loved the show.

  126. Brilliant Red Fiestaware should be brought back, because low doses of radiation never hurt anybody.

  127. I would love to see Drive-in movie theaters return to their glory day, but I would also love to have a Pearson’s 7up candy bar, my Dad would love to see Lawrence Welk, I would like to see Love American Style or the original MTV with videos. How about pop in the returnable 16 oz glass returnable bottles! ~ Robyn

  128. Food to bring back: regular chicken nuggets at Burger King. Chicken shaped into crowns and “fries” doesn’t do it for me.

  130. I’d like to see Fat Albert back. Screw all this PC crap. Bring back that original Fat kid who know how to mack down at junk food like there is no tomorrow. He is a kid for the entitlement generation.

    Each week you could focus on a new unhealthy product ready to be unleash on the youth of America like to locust to the fields.

    Hay hay hay it’s Fat Alberts Public Service Announcement of the week. “2 for tuesday at 31 flavors.” or “Make you own Deep Fried Twinkie kits on sale at Kmart.”

    I say forget the whole health food crave and go for glutton without remorse.

  131. TVwise, I miss Friends. Foodwise, McDonalds needs to bring back the Salad Shaker.

  132. I miss Jello Pudding Pops. I still refuse to watch anything on CW after they cancelled Veronica Mars. I really really really miss that show. I also miss Alias and Dirty Sexy Money.

  133. It’s not that old, but I would love to see Dr Pepper Red Fusion come back. Still wear the ratty T-Shirt

  135. Quantum Leap needs to come back; leaving it as something of a cliffhanger was very disappointing.

  137. to make some people happy i would like to point out: 1.you can still get dunkaroos in certain stores around my parents home (indiana). 2. i wear a swatch. (it is cool, really, i promise) 3. there is an orange juluis a few miles away from my apartment. 4. jell-o still makes delicious pudding pops.

    i would like it if the following things returned: 1. “just shoot me” 2. pizza-hut flavored doritos (not the new ones with ranch either) 3. planters made a 3D peanut shaped cookie shell filled with peanut butter sometime in the mid-nineties. 4. etco cooler, the green hi-c with monster on the front. 5. the fruit snack you would peel from cardboard in a maze shape.

  138. I think I’d like to see those plastic charm bracelets come back. I used to have about a thousand cheap plastic charms with bells . . . maybe it was just an Ohio thing. I don’t know but they were cool.

  140. Strawberry Shortcake! I have fond but faint memories of it as a kid and would love to see it brought back. I know you can find the dolls in some stores but it doesn’t feel quite the same.

  145. they should bring back the show perfect strangers. just air the original episodes instead of the current programming. balki and larry. hilarity ensues.

  146. I would loooove for Saved by the Bell back. original cast, no new class crap

  147. Gosh so many things I would love to see come back LOL
    I would love to see Bubs Daddy bubble gum come back lol
    I would love to see McDonalds bring back the actual fried pies, cherry was my favvvvv!
    I can remember when candy bars were a nickle and could get a huge bag of penny candy for 25 cents 😀
    TV shows…. Mighty Mouse of course lol
    Pam

  148. Planters Cheez Balls!! Oh, and those cereal things in the can…they wee like giant froot loops in a can.

    And maybe Tab Energy. I really liked that crap.

  149. There’s tons of cool stuff that needs to be brought back…Crystal Pepsi, Smurfs, sexy, Jellies shoes and bracelets, Hammertime…but the most important thing that needs to be brought back is the McRib.

    That’s right suckas – McRib was, is and always will be the bomb diggity.

    And I love Pepsi Throwback – plus it has less sugar grams than regular Pepsi.

  152. I would love to have them bring back cane sugar Dr Pepper, nothing like real sugar goodness.

  153. i wish they could bring back stark raving mad. comedy on nbc (back when all the nbc shows were funny). it starred tony shalhoub and neil patrick harris. it was great. but of course it was canceled. never fails. if i really like it, it’ll get canceled. but the old pepsi is a good idea. i wish all the companies would go back to just sugar. that was goooood stuff.

  154. I wish they’d bring back TGIF! Best. TV. Ever. And also, Bump in the Night. Saturday mornings at their finest.
    And when is the McRib coming back?

  155. Gummi Bears the tv show, Crystal Pepsi, classic Lisa Frank stickers, fuzzy slap bracelets, Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?, and most importantly…SURGE.

  156. I’d like to see sexy brought back. Oh, wait. Justin Timberlak already did that…NOT!

  161. They need to bring back “Freaks and Geeks”. The original Apatow team. That show was awesome.

  167. I don’t think there are any trends that I really miss.

    The ONLY thing I really miss was watching SNICK on Saturday nights when I was 12-15. My mom would get a pizza and I would spend a few hours in a different, more entertaining world.

    Nowadays it’s rather hard to get that happy off of such a simple thing.

  168. AHHH! Real Monsters and Invader Zim. New eps of Zim would make my life wonderful 🙂

  169. id love to see either nintendo cereal or voltron back… not that version with the cars.. the one with the lions!

    some of my best childhood memories invovle both voltron and nintendo cereal. preferably at the same time.

  171. Awww come on, MTV. What is wrong with you? Those reality shows you now run constantly? They kinda, well, suck. Take a cue from Pepsi and BRING BACK DARIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  172. Pepsi Clear! That stuff was horrible, but such a novel concept!

    And tightrolling your jeans. I try to bring that back on a regular basis, but nobody else seems to want to jump on the bandwagon!

  173. OH! I would love, love, love for some of the real family dramas from the late 80’s and early 90s to see a revivial. Life Goes On and The Wonder Years in particular! Wonderful shows that weren’t all about teenagers acting as though they are 35 years old!

  175. I would like like to see The Snorkles come back, the cartoon, and not as an updated version either…. Oh, or The Wuzzles, those crazy mixed up animals. Part bee, part hippo? Of course it’s awesome!

  176. I’d love to see 7up Gold come back. I never got a chance to try it originally, and I’d love to.

  177. How about some old Nick shows: Salute Your Shorts, Rocco’s Modern Life, GUTS (agro crag ftw), Double Dare.

  178. All my guilty pleasures… Saved By The Bell, Real Coke (not this “Classic” crap), Sports Night, Big Wheels, etc.

  179. I want the show Greg The Bunny, which only ran one season but was amazing, to be brought back. It had seth green it was awesome…

    Pogs rock too…. still have all my old ones at my moms house i think…

  180. Hot Warheads candy and the Wendy’s Chedder Lover’s Bacon Cheesburger please.

  182. Spirals! Those crappy corn snacks shaped like corkscrews and doused with nacho cheese powder!

  185. I wish they would bring back Cookies and Cream Twix. Those were the best. Ooo, and also Surge. Aww, to eat a Cookies and Cream twix while sippin’ on a Surge, pure bliss.

  186. I’d like to see a return of the overall as a fashion trend. not only is it easy to dress, and look totally fly but it would effectively kill the sagging pants complaint.

  187. Remember orbits? I would love those to come back. Brings back my childhood.

  188. Clear Pepsi! Except for the supposed cancer-causing elements of course.

    Oh, and that game we used to play in elementary school with a tennis ball and a wall. Throw the ball at the wall, if you fumble the rebound you had to run and touch the wall before someone pegged you with it or hit the wall with it. We used to call it Suicide.

  189. I wish they would bring back the Love Boat. We use to eat pizza, drink pepsi and watch the Love Boat and then Fantasy Island. Great family nights! Now I’m cravy a pepsi and pizza.

  190. I would like to see The Kroft Super Show be brought back. Or better yet, Dusty’s Treehouse!

  191. I want to see them redo Dr Shrinker. Or, the Great Space Coaster. Oh hell both of them please.

  193. Drive-in movies, because teenagers need to stuff themselves in cars, parents need to make beds for their kids in the hatchback, and popcorn and soda taste best when you are sitting on the hood of your car on a summer night.

  194. Ice Cream Cones Cereal! It had chocolate or vanilla puffs and sugar cone-shaped pieces. My brother and I used to bounce off the walls after eating it 🙂

  196. I say it’s time to bring back the old game show “Press Your Luck”. Big Bucks! No Whammies! STOP!

  202. I was going to say Mother’s Circus Animal cookies, but it turns out they’ve already been brought back!

    So, I’m going with My So-Called Life (Yes, I was a teenager in the 1990s).

  203. Bring back Global GUTS on Nickelodeon, McDonalds Arch Deluxe and the WB Frog.

  204. ZOTZ that we would buy from the stranger that dished out confectionary to children. so sweet so fizzy. much better than the so sweet soooo sweeeter Dr. Pepper gum yet not as fun as the condom-looking packaged stinkbombs we got from the same guy.

  206. I WISH pepsi would bring back diet pepsi with vanilla in 2 liters. yummmmmmmmmmmmmmm and if pepsi won’t bring that back how about the diet pepsi with french vanilla it was slightly less great but still good.

  207. Anyone else miss those old Doctor Dreadfull sets? I had all of them, and would love to see them come back, bigger and better! The stuff was sometimes icky, but always fun to make, and some of it was actually not bad to eat!

  208. i hope nobody’s said these (i’m too lazy to read all the comments)

    1. old school tart n’ tinys without that nasty spree-like candy coating
    2. old school tv from when i was growing up like hey dude/salute your shorts/sqare one
    3. when wendy’s had a salad bar

  209. Far from original, but I have to say Crystal Pepsi or Pepsi Blue.

    Alternatively, Keebler Magic Middles.

  211. I wish they would bring back trans-fats. French fries taste like shit now.

  214. I would kill or die for the Pizza Hut Priazzo to make a come back. More specifically, the Roma Priazzo. Oooohhh, so good.

    I would also like Crystal Lite to make their Ruby Red drink again. The stuff actually tasted like grapefruit juice. I found it and only had it for a month before it disappeared. Crystal Lite bastards.

  215. I have a few:

    1. Arch Deluxe
    2. ‘Yo momma’ jokes
    3. The TV show ALF

  216. Original Mr. Pibb soda. NOT PIBB XTRA!

    and the slogan “Put it in your head”

  218. I would love to see Dt. Cherry Chocolate Dr. Pepper again…I LOVED that stuff…I miss it so much. Ruby Red Squirt would be another one…it may still be around, but I havent seen it in years…

  219. I would love to see the TV show King of the Hill brought back after this season.

  220. I wish they’d bring back the old imacs that looked like big toys with their flavour-colour-names!

  224. I’d love to see jellies come back… and it should be socially acceptable to eat those giant pixie sticks at every meal regardless of one’s age.

  226. The original SNICK line up on Nickelodeon, Angry Beavers, and Rocko’s Modern Life.

    Oh and at least one more season of Firefly or another movie.

  227. I would like to see the Mike & Ike people bring back the Cherry & Bub flavor, or whatever it was called – it was a pack of cherry (red) and bubblegum (pink) flavored Mike & Ikes.

    Though now that I think about it, it sounds kind of gross. Maybe I shouldn’t wish for candy that I liked when I was eight…

  228. i would like to see the great american bank robbers (eg billy the kid, john dillinger, etc…) brought back, but in zombie form. they would be fun zombies to kill. forget about these “raised by the tv” zombies. i want some bad ass zombies to hunt down. i don’t want to chase a zombie that stops every 20 feet to catch his breath.

    or rainbow bright. she was cool… and colorful.

  230. I want the soda “OK!” back. It was like orange soda and dr pepper mixed together. So tasty.

  231. I want Arrested Development back! I could also go for a cheesy gordita crunch from Taco Bell. Fortunately, I think the latter makes a return about as often as McDonald’s likes to bring back the McRib.

  232. I’d love to see McDonalds follow Burger King’s XT trend and bring back the Double Whopper.

    And yes, Arrested Development needs to be miraculously brought back to life.

  234. Orbitz drink
    Planters crispy cookie things with peanut butter
    Surge soda
    Day-Glo t shirts

  236. I would like to see the return of the light brown (tan) M&M. Not only did it taste as good or better than its M&M brethren, it presented an earthy segment of the color spectrum that many people can relate to. The tan M&M was shamed when there were open auditions for its replacement while it was still in the bag. The reintroduction of the tan M&M, even for a limited time, would not only be delicious, it would bring closure to the indignity suffered by the tan M&M.

  237. I’d like to see the old formula for Nesquik chocolate milk mix make a comeback! They’ve made it so that it stirs very evenly and smoothly now, but part of the fun of drinking Quik/Nesquik was using a spoon to scoop up the clumps of chocolatey sugar floating on top of the milk and eating them!

  238. I’m glad the 60’s and 70’s are gone. I can’t think of anything I’d want brought back other than my youth. Oh, and Great Shakes. Those were good.

  240. I want the trend of whatever movie property comes out gets a terrible cartoon show. Whoever stars in it gets turned into kids like Robocop babies or Terminator gets a mokey robot sidekick. It’s all about the terrible 80’s quality cartoons that had outlandish insane storline that had mutants and trips to other dimesions. My favorite idea is a Matrix cartoon called Neo and the Matrix where the Matrix takes the form of a person and they go on adventures through time.

  241. I would love to see the TV show Las Vegas come back.

    I love the Pepsi Throwback, the sugar makes it so good. Im totally addicted to the stuff!

  242. Ok I am totally showing my age here but I would freak if they would bring back Koogle!!! Remember that stuff? Differerent flavored peanut butter spreads…I think there was cinnamon and banana and maybe strawberry but the only one I ever had was chocolate and it was soooo good!

  245. – jello pudding pops

    – Hubba Bubba blueberry gum

    – Dr Pepper gum with the gel center

  246. These might still exist…but I would really like to see Dunka-Roos brought back. I remember showing them off to my friends whenever I had them packed in my lunch box!

  248. I rather like Boo Berry cereal and I can only find it around Halloween time. And bring back Nitro Cola. That stuff was the bomb.

  250. Before there were powerbars and zillion other ‘bars’ – Carnation Instant Breakfast had this really really dry breakfast bar that tasted like chocolate covered flavored powered milk. But it was SO tasty! I loved the peanut butter ones and have never ever found anything comparable.

  253. I’d love to see decent shows on Nick come back, like Legends of the Hidden Temple and GUTS.

    And Pepsi Blue. Maybe Crystal Pepsi since I was never old enough to try it myself. 🙁

  255. White Chocolate M&M’s and the Wire. Allergic to real chocolate, those were the closest I could get.

  261. KaBLaM! it was the best of those ’90s kid shows and i want more, in particular, Action League Now! for watching pleasure.

  262. I want to see H R Pufnstuf brought back. That show was sweet back in the day.

  264. I would love to see Clearly Canadian brought back. Man, I loved that clear fruity bubbly water.

    For TV shows, I would love to see Punky Brewster brought back, only so long as it didn’t star some overly generic Disney brat.
