Kevin Arnold recalls growing up during the late 60s and early 70s; the turbulent social times make the transition from child to adult unusually interesting. IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094582/

My brothers and I watched this show regularly especially the first three seasons. I remember how even though it was set in the 60s and 70s it fairly accurately represented the universal experience of being that age. I'm about 10 years younger than Kevin so I wasn't that far removed from that time.

One thing I remember about the show is how much young men identified with it and how most girls didn't. I've always been hesitant to rewatch it because I don't know how it would hold up and I'd rather keep my memories of watching it.
