I like the cheesey stuff

Movies:
Grease 2
Dirty Dancing
Goonies
Superman II
Feds (Rebecca DeMorney & Mary Gross)
Adventures in Babysitting
Full Metal Jacket

TV Shows
Facts of Life
Cagney and Lacey
Designing Women - most people think of it as 90s but it first aired in 86
Murphy Brown - started in 88
Charlie's Angels- I'm including this cuz it ended its run in 81 and although the Shelly Hack year (79-80) sucked I was still a faithful fan :-[

I said on another board that the 80s seemed to embrace the era of the 50s & 60s. There was a lot of homage paid to this era mostly in music but films threw back too like Back to the Future...

I discovered all the great shows from the 50's 60's in the 80s so I watched a lot of:
Leave it to Beaver
Donna Reed
My Three Sons
Andy Griffith
and of course Lucy
