The Cosby Show and Growing Pains in the '80s, but here are a few blasts from the past that you probably forgot all about. Some of my favorites on the list are Small Wonder, Shirt Tales! Shirt Tales Day By Day This one wasn't on for very long at all, but my cousin and I were obsessed with it. There was one episode in which a guy "snapped to a beat that only he can hear" and for some reason we though that was hilarious and still laugh about it to this day. Mr. Wizard's World Today's Special This was on during the day while I was in school, but I remember being excited to watch it on those rare days when I was home sick. Not sure why I found it so appealing... but they were living in a department store and I'm a shopaholic in my adult life so maybe that was it?
