21 Jumpstreet

Before There Was

     

     So I'm still going strong on my "21 Jumpstreet" marathon. I was obsessed with this show when it first  aired back in the day. And about 5 years back, I got a majority of all the seasons on DVD. This show is like crack to me. Or better yet, it's like being wrapped up in a blanket, next to a fireplace on a cold winter's night.

     I just need seasons 4 and 5 to make my collection complete.

     But I realized a few of the reasons why I love this show so much:
1. This show was pre-internet.
2. This show was pre-cell phones.
3. Solving crime in proper 80s fashion.

     Therefore, a majority of the story lines center around the development and arc of strong characters solving crime as undercover cops in high school, minus the interference of our current (and often times unnecessary) technology. It's fun to see a glimpse of how life was without our current innovations and how we appeared to relate to one another not so long ago...
