I remember watching the show "The Wonder Years" everyday during my adolescent years (i'm 22 now). I miss that show, and i wonder when did it stop being produces ? and if i can find DVDs of it anywhere. what was your favorite episode ?

Cheers.

They've obviously grown up. You�re absolutely right as this was one truly wonderful show. Frankly, most shows aimed at children and adults are usually sadly lacking, if not a complete embarrassment catering to the LOWEST common denominator. This series was full of charm, humor and it was intelligent in that it always had a redeeming message.

It was right up there in quality with the 70 series �The Waltons.�

That show stopped being produced a LONG time ago. Fred Savage had a couple other series and a few movies after that. I'll bet you could find the reruns somewhere. Maybe Nickelodeon? I used to enjoy that show, but it wore thin after a while.

I never watched it. It seemed kinda lame to me, but that's just my opinion.

Best TV sitcom was Family Ties IMHO. That Justine Bateman was a fox rAAArrrr!!!

I watched it because Paul was so hillarious and Winnie was SOOOOO hot. Kevin drove me insane in all episodes for his shyness. I've seen Fred Savage in some microscopic roles, and most recently in Austin Powers 3.

They ended the episode playing the closing theme to The Natural. I guess whenever your desperate enough as a tired TV producer resort to Randy Newman.

Man I loved that show, one of the greatest. The last episode was probable the saddest and most touching ever on tv.

And yes, Winnie was "hot".

Every guy in America was hoping Kevin would get in her pants (during the high school years of course).

There is a great resource called www.sitcomsonline.com that answers these questions for Wonder Years and many other shows. But honestly I wasn't a big fan of that show.

I recently turned 55, and I wonder where the years went, too!

they could show where everyone is today.

y? So they could reiterate what they told us in the final episode?

His Dad died, his older brother took over the business, Winnie married some other dude and he has a wife and kid. That's all I remember but I think a reunion show would be kind of redundant. I loved that show.
