[@georgemaherjr2290]

Wasn’t “Step by step” part of the TGIF lineup also?

[@Pinkranger87]

Yeah

[@juliemcarthur3004]

Yes it was

[@davidjkus]

I thought the same

[@davidjkus]

It was more TGIF than Full House ever was.

[@brittanysmiley7284]

I was thinking the same thing, like no mention of step by step?

[@ChantalOfTheNorth]

In an 80s baby and a 90s kid. TGIF was a ritual, along with Saturday morning cartoons. This is such a blast from the past ❤.

[@brandymorrison2607]

76 baby. 80’s kid. 90’s teen. Same age as Candace Cameron Bure actually. And same here for me 😊❤

[@shouldhavekeptmymouthshut3741]

Gumby... do you remember fudge? I can't picture the characters at all, i just remember watching it on Saturday mornings.

[@iieshacarter]

Yeeesss! Perfect start for the weekend.

[@DerekBoldiene360]

@brandymorrison2607 Did you know Candace Cameron. Was in Boy Meets World 🌎 She played a witch in that show. A real evil one even though. I heard she's a Christian real life.

[@DerrickJLarson]

Ty for writing that. My brothers and sister would sit in front of the TV and religiously and quietly 🤫watch TGIF. We would be so enthralled by every show: Family Matters, Full House, Hanging with Mr. Cooper, Dinosaurs. I especially liked "Boy Meets World".😊

[@joshuaa1605]

Man we were so lucky as kids. To have TGIF on fridays and then SNICK on saturdays was just epic as a 90s kid.

the shows that stood out to me were Dinosaurs, Step by Step, Boy Meets World and Sabrina the Teenage Witch

[@StrikeTeam0316]

Being born in 87 I absolutely loved the reruns of all of these shows. At the same time, I can absolutely see why “Seinfeld” was much needed when it came around.

[@TrinhNguyen-sh4fj]

I love these shows as a 90s teenager. I miss the old days so much! I always looked forward to TGIF back then. I wish we had a Time Machine to go back to those days. The memories will be in my heart forever. Thanks so much for this!

80s baby here... i always wonder if we're just getting old and falling into that stereotypical middle aged person whose complaining about how things were much better "back in the day".... or were they actually better back then? Of course i think they were but is that because I'm just getting old?

If I was asked about my childhood, TGIF would be one of the memories at the forefront of my mind.

[@C_R_B_R_E_A_K_R]

Born in 90, this is the ultimate childhood memory. I absolutely remember watching every Friday at my grandmas while my mom went to my sisters football game! Boy meets world, Sabrina, Step by step, family matters!!!!! Popcorn and Dr. Pepper

When the narrator said 30 years ago, it brought back that feeling I had when my doctor called me middle aged. TGIF was the highlight of my week this brought back some serious nostalgia.

[@charlescummings2205]

This was the best way to keep young kids home on Friday night. I would go to school on Friday and couldn't wait till Friday night.

[@J-Bird88]

Excellent point! The only time I would miss it was to go to roller skating and still now to this day when I hear”now I’ve had, the time of my life…and I’ve never felt this way before “…that was always the couples skate. My best friend and I would hold hands and skate backwards.

I was born in 81' and TGIF was something i HIGHLY looked forward to every annoying school week! I watched it during the Step by Step, Perfect Strangers and rotation years for the fourth show which had trouble lasting as long as the other shows. Classic times to be an American.

[@williammccollom6847]

Sabrina didn't join TGIF until Full House was already canceled Sister Sister, Perfect Strangers, Step by Step, Dinosaurs, Hangin' With Mr. Cooper were part of it in it's prime

[@nlee4566]

A TGIF documentary! I been waiting for this to happen for decades!!

[@IK_4]

Family Matters and Full House were part of the original TGIF, and it was more than 30 years ago. Sabrina and Boy Meet World came much later, I never knew they were a part of TGIF. I’m 46, I was still in middle school when TGIF came out.

Unfortunately we will never get another TV block such as ABC’s T.G.I.F. again for the world has changed.

Sister, Sister was only on ABC for two seasons then got cancelled and picked up by the WB.

[@stacyfabiszewski4633]

Full house, Family Matters, Boy Meet World and Sabrina were my all time favorites ! I also really liked Who's the Boss, Punky Brewster, Growing Pains, Doogie Howser, MD, Facts of Life, Family Ties, My Two Dad's, and more. Then i Loved when Friends was on . I know after I put Sabrina the rest wasn't on TGIF, but they were ALL so good and and of course I Loved How I Met Your Mother ! Friends and How I Met Your Mother came a little while after TGIF, these were ALL Fantastic shows, sorry I am a sitcom nut ! I don't want to forget about Mad about you and Cheer's ! ❤ Also Beverly Hills 90210, Melrose Place, Just the Five of Us( i think that was the name of the show) Awwwwwww Memories ! Tv is NOT at ALL like it was back then ! Not even the slightest and it breaks my heart ❤️

[@susanfit47]

I liked all the shows.

[@davidjkus]

Ok Step By Step was also apart of TGIF I’d say more than even Full House.

[@richierich3541]

Very true. Full House moved to Tuesday night when Step By Step premiered. Step By Step remained on TGIF during its first six seasons. The final season it moved to Friday nights on CBS along with Family Matters.

[@SuperMarioBrosIII]

@@richierich3541 Actually CBS Friday Night Block Party to be exact!📺🥳🎉🌆

[@robertstarks698]

Full House was on Tuesday Nights as I remember. Was never on TGIF but still a classic show!!!

[@josephclegg3562]

Full House started on the T.G.l.F lineup before moving to Tuesday nights to make room for Step By Step.

[@paulportell3748]

I'm surprised this wasn't split into at least 3 parts. The first TGIF lineup did not have Family Matters or Boy Meets World. But it did have Perfect Strangers and Just the 10 of Us. Also, other short lived series occasionally appeared in the 90's lineup, like Baby Talk and Camp Wilder. Plus, there was Step by Step, Dinosaurs, and even brief a series with the Olsen Twins in the primary roles.

[@HoodCap2023]

Step by step, Hangin with Mr. Cooper, Sister Sister

[@kiki29073]

People need to Stop thinking that actors and actresses have to be the same character in the role they play! That's why they are acting!

[@fehner27]

My favorite example is Patrick Muldoon when he was on Saved by the Bell as Jeff. When Kelly broke up with Zack, Patrick was receiving death threats for a while. Poor guy.

[@fiercebandicoot]

It was kids that thought that. Middle schoolers adolescents

[@leiamims3633]

So true! When people would say they met an actor or actress, that said person was actually nice and sweet and far from the characters they play. I love that!

I didn't grow up on TV. Igrew up on VHS and DVD'd but over the years I have.seen some T.G.I.F. shoes my favorite that I have seen so far are 1 Full House 🏠 2 Boy Meets World 🌎 3 Family Matters 4 Sabrina The Teenage Witch 5 Step By Step 6 Sister Sister All those shows are really good

[@jennifer_m.8613]

Most of the TGIF lineup aired in all afternoon reruns on then-Fox/ABC Family for years; Full House was 12:00-1:00, followed by Step By Step or Growing Pains or Family Matters or Sabrina or Boy Meets World. In the summer when Mom's soap operas came on, my sister and I gladly and willingly went downstairs at lunch time and didn't come back upstairs until dinner time. Oh, those were the days! 🙂

as the co creator for the network at the end said: all these shows are now comfort food I'm glad I have almost all the episodes in DVD box sets I think I'll do that this Friday night buy some popcorn 🍿 and other snacks and go back in time yes I have cable but Friday I'll pretend like cable doesn't exist yet (how many remember trying to watch TV with rabbit ears?)

they need just the 10 of us on dvd or have reruns so we can watch it again.

[@EeyoreHyde94]

Cool video but at the (34:33) mark it just stops playing and doesn’t load while the video time keeps running, I tried watching the video on 2 different devices and it still isn’t playing the full video. May be something to take a look at? Great video topic though!

Redo this video and mention Step By Step. Family Matters/Steve Urkel helped boost the show when it first started. I just watched the episode where Steve Urkel appeared on Full House.

Was this done before Bob Saget's passing? It would have been nice for them to have addressed that. May he RIP. TY for sharing this. God Bless You & stay safe.

I Loved TGIF ! I was Always watching constantly, i couldn't wait until Friday night's, i loved ALL of these shows and were so disappointed when there was No more TGIF, i was very upset and lost on what to do with my Friday night's, personally I got depressed and then I came out of it, but it was really hard on me. Today there's nothing like TGIF. I was so excited for the Fuller House reboot and the Boy Meets World reboot, as well as Punky Brewster, but again I was so sad when they again cancelled everything. They're all such good shows and i was so mad and upset that they all were cancelled again. The reboots didn't last, the network's needed them to keep going, now days including the reboots they cancel shows way, way to fast and I hate it. These shows I love and miss dearly, sorry but what they have on today is All reality shows and I am definitely not a fan of any of it. I did LOVE my TGIF night! ❤❤❤❤ They were all fun family shows.
