I think I missed the news that iconic 90s TV show Baywatch was getting a reboot, because this trailer was a complete surprise to me. Ooooh. It's way too glossy and it'll never be a patch on the original but this is exciting. Honestly, just hearing those drums, the build-up, that song! It gives me tingles. I'm not entirely sure I'm comfortable living in a world where Hobie is now …

I finally got around to watching Boybands Forever, a three part documentary on the BBC that aired late last year. I had planned to watch it over Christmas but a few scenes into the first episode, I thought it might be a bit depressing - turns out these boybands haven't all had the best of experiences. So I waited until January, when we're all experiencing the blues anyway, so why …

I love this recent article on the BBC about a guy called Rob Johnson who has been getting niche and forgotten songs put on the streaming services - just by asking them to upload them! No matter how many tracks a streaming service claims to have, there's always going to be something missing, and this is all about a mission to try and right that wrong. Most of the time …

The 90s repeats of Top of the Pops on BBC Four have had a bit of a break recently (Proms and the Olympics will do that to your channels) but came back with a bang with this amazing episode. It kicked off with the Backstreet Boys which was such a surprise to me that I almost choked on my drink, and aside from the next song, continued to astound and …

During our second 90s evening (it's becoming a thing!) I noticed something during the Gladiators episode that was so smoothly done, it hadn't even registered in my mind. The men's and women's events were swapped in order throughout the show and for each episode. For example, who was introduced first, sometimes the men, sometimes the women. Who took to the Eliminator first at the end of the episode? This time …

I make no secret of my love for the 90s, and often enjoy a bit of culture from that time. However, a certain confluence of events occurred yesterday that meant I somehow went back in time and was living my best 90s life all evening. First, after hearing that Carl Weathers had died, we wanted to pay tribute to him by watching a movie he’d appeared in. Having already completed …

I just wanted to celebrate the fact that the Top of the Pops replays have started again on BBC Four, after taking an extended break to make way for the Proms. We'd just dipped our toes into the start of 1995 when the classical stuff took over but now we're back, and it's brilliant! Britpop is starting to emerge and breakthrough the dance numbers, we're still seeing warblers like Celine …

There was no Christmas Day edition of Top of the Pops this year, which was both completely understandable and also a real shock. The show has been drifting further and further from the TV schedules and therefore the public consciousness that it was inevitable it would one day drop off the festive TV guides. But it was still a shame to see it was missing. However, BBC Four is still …

I’ve mentioned before that I’m completely into the Top of the Pops replays on BBC Four at the moment, as they have reached the early nineties and I’m loving this era of music... we’re heading rapidly towards Backstreet Boys and Spice Girls and so much more goodness. They recently rounded out the year 1992 with the Christmas special, and at this moment in time, Whitney Houston had her vice-like grip …

When I want something a bit more relaxing to watch, I dip into Dawson's Creek on Netflix. Maybe relaxing isn't the right word, all those hyperbolic teenagers making a drama out of a molehill, but it's a comforting treat regardless. The only problem with it is, up until this past week, the theme tune was Run Like Mad rather than the correct I Don't Want to Wait by Paula Cole. …
