Growing up in the ’90s was the best. Between TV, movies, music and video games, it felt like there was always something worth watching. I was definitely guilty of ignoring homework in favor of shows like "The X-Files" and "Martin."

These days, I mostly bounce between streaming apps and YouTube, rewatching old favorites instead of keeping up with whatever’s new.
