Whats your favorite movies, shows, or series that takes you back to your childhood, teens, 20s, etc.? Can be a movie from back then, or a movie made later showing that era.
A series for me would be Stranger Things. Outside of the main story, the setting it takes place in takes me back to my childhood days in the 80s. The clothes, furniture, cars, walkie talkies, etc. Riding around the neighborhood on bikes, and parents didnt care like they do today. Oh I miss that time.

Ironically, Seinfeld and Friends.
And, otherwise, Star Wars and Planet of the Apes.

Vision Quest.
It takes place about the same time I was in HS and I was a wrestler who always had to cut weight.

I like a lot of the older series. Been watching some of the Columbo ones lately.

Recorded the Original Star Trek on BBC a couple months ago. Hadn't seen many of them in years. Takes me right back to the good ole days.

Back to the Future. Really takes me back in time. Sometimes forward.

Not that I've seen a lot of it recently... but In Living Color, and old 90s SNL does it for me.
Seeing all of those young comedians just getting their start really takes me back.
Any John Hughes movie as well.
