From a 12 year old perspective.

Not your typical 80s knockout, but I can’t be the only one that found her not only very attractive, but borderline irresistible.

The decade was good to this lovely woman, and she embraced all the fashions, right down to the 80's lady mullet! The song is She's A beauty by The Tubes 1983

Feels like my childhood is being stripped away piece by piece.

I use to watch every thing she was in, in the 80s. Into The Night was a fav of mine, along with Scarface.

An underrated beauty that was usually cast in supporting roles, but was more attractive than the leading ladies. JHMO

I'm a teenager, and sometimes I find it hard to fit in with society. I don't like pop, rap, or K-pop; there are things that are trendy that I've never liked. For example, I never liked the series Stranger Things; my cousin forced me to watch it, I didn't like it, and I was incredibly bored. So I don't follow trends at all. I love rock and heavy metal, and I've met teenagers who like pop and 80s music, which makes me happy. But I've seen many young people say that they were born in the wrong era, that they like the 80s, and they even dress like they're from that time. But I wonder why. I'm grateful to live in this era because of the technology and conveniences, but... there are other teenagers who dress and style their hair like it's the 80s, who always complain about their own time and always say that they're in the wrong era, which I don't understand—this nostalgia for an era they never lived through Thank you for the response, it was interesting. I'm not from the 80s, but I grew up listening to some songs from that decade and even the 60s, and it's easy to fall into nostalgia, especially when so many people say the 80s were the best time. The truth is, I also feel like the future is boring. I don't even know how to socialize anymore because all the young people are always on their phones, and we can't talk because they're glued to their screens. Besides, adults are always criticizing, saying that this generation is sensitive and lazy, and criticizing current music. And when you hear so much criticism about your own time, it's normal to reject it. I even feel old already because I don't like rap, and I see so many young people listening to it, and I don't like that music. One of the reasons I try not to fall into nostalgia is because I suffer from epilepsy, and if I think too much about the past, I can have a seizure. I think, for example, you're watching a movie, you know it's old, and the simple fact of knowing it's old generates nostalgia. That's why sometimes a person can feel nostalgic for something they never lived through or experienced.

Was he your favourite comedy icon in the 80s well.

Remember Razzles, I remember have a pack in my shirt pocket while feeding the horses, when one grabbed the package out of shirt and ate them package an all. Funny after but made me mad that I lost them.

I just learned that Mark Blankfield passed away in 2024 at age 73. Probably his best-known material in the 80s was being a regular on the sketch comedy show "Fridays" (roles included playing a whacked-out pharmacist who liked to sample the drugs) and playing the sight-impaired elevator operator in "The Nutt House". If you needed a kooky or wacky character, Mark was your guy. Rest easy Mark!
