About this book
The '90s were so money! Sit back and relive ten of the best years of your so-called life... Presidential scandals, rap feuds, Baywatch -- the '90s had it all. It was the decade during which we first visited 90210 and had coffee with our Friends. We got on the Web and started to Google and lol. We learned that a show about nothing can definitely be something, and that men and women hail from different planets! (Who knew?) And for at least a second or two, we may have wondered whether the Blair Witch was real.
The perfect companion to E!'s 101 Reasons the '90s Ruled miniseries, this book relives memorable moments from a momentous decade. Every page will make you say, "Dude, I totally remember that." Unless, of course, you are very, very young (or don't call people dude). Packed with cool photos and irreverent commentary, 101 Reasons the '90s Ruled is Absolutely Fabulous.

Information
REASON #1 1990 Seinfeld
What’s to say that hasn’t already been said about this show about nothing? Jerry, Elaine, George, and Kramer are neurotic New Yorkers … yada, yada, yada. The show was the most-watched sitcom of the decade, and its much ballyhooed season finale attracted 76 million viewers … which sure isn’t nothing.
