I’m a child of the 80s and I love the pop culture of that time. Check out this huge list of 1980s movies and TV shows streaming on Netflix, Hulu, Disney+ & Prime Video!
My girls love learning about what life was like when my husband and I were kids. They love hearing stories about our childhood, but kids are very visual too. That’s why we have so much fun watching some of my favorite childhood TV shows and movies together.
I get pretty excited every time I notice new movies and TV shows on Netflix, Hulu, Disney+ and Prime Video that are from my childhood. It brings back memories of sitting around on Saturday mornings watching cartoons with my brother and sister. Or nights where our family would pile in the truck and head to the drive-in movies. Great memories!
One of the reasons I love streaming services over cable so much is because we aren’t tied to watching a show when it airs like we were as kids (not to mention the lack of commercials!). My girls can take turns picking shows or movies to watch, and we don’t have to stick to a time schedule set by someone else.
And now that they’re growing and getting older, we’re enjoying many of my favorite 80s movies together. I just love that my girls love 80s movies too! And if you haven’t seen all of the 80s-style teen movies that Netflix is coming out with, you have to see them! They really do have a John Hughes feel to them.
I know that I’m not the only huge 80s pop culture fanatic, so I put together a list of 80’s TV shows and movies that are streaming on Netflix, Hulu and Prime Video. You won’t find any remakes on this list – only original 1980s shows and movies!
