Episodes
1. The Decade’s Greatest Rivalries
The 24-hour news cycle arrives, and with it, a booming tabloid industry hungry for scandals and strife to fuel its engines. With breathless nonstop coverage fanning the flames of the biggest beefs of the decade, the ‘90s become famous for its high-profile divorces, fighting figure skaters, feuding rappers, battling boy bands, and the first presidential impeachment in over 100 years.
2. Comedy Rebellion
From a primetime cartoon family getting into it with the president to a show about nothing, the 1990s tore the comedy rulebook in half. The decade revitalized old icons and gave rise to bold new voices―from the young Black comedians of Phat Tuesdays to the drag queens of "To Wong Foo." The cultural landscape was shifting, and comedians were leading the charge.
3. Teenage Dreams
A new generation of teenagers with cash to spend flips the script and molds the decade in its own image as TRL rules the airwaves, Scream redefines a genre, House Party kicks off a dance craze, Dawson's Creek gives fans all the feels, and Cher from Clueless reigns as Queen of the Catchphrase. Whatever!
