That video made me scream wildly also, but not in a good way.

i hope someone in the media makes a reference to them "hangin' tough"

I saw Donny on TV at the Celtics game the other night and he confirmed a come back. Nostalgia is a biatch America. Somethings are better off dead.

Seeing as how the NKOTB weren't even around in 1984, I'm sure that the video wasn't from then, submittard.

Never has a "WTF???" been more appropriate.

Lance is so dreamy.

you'd think blonde tv girl would be able to afford a pair of pants that fit.

I would have screamed wildly, too, something along the lines of "OH GOD, MY EARS--THE END IS NIGH, AND YET THE SKY IS BLUE, NOT BLACK AS SACKCLOTH!! GOD, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN US" etc., etc., something like that.

"Step by step, oooo baby. Gonna get in your world."
Yeah, I loved them in second grade.

Well my name is Donny
And I'm here to say
They call me Donny
'Cause that's my name
Bananas are good in every way
An apple a day keeps the doctor away
Purina Cat Chow
Chow, Chow, Chow!
If my friends could only see me now
I'm walkin', I'm talkin'
Roger Clemens was called for balkin'
Word, Sister!

If you could provide a link to that clip, I would be eternally thankful.

As it is, I'm 1000 years thankful for putting some of the lyrics up. The only part I remember is "Jordan" singing something like, "Whenever I buy my own shirts ... woo!"

So thank you. :)

Anytime. Now, I am off to the google.

/Ashamed to admit I knew the rap portion by heart

Here are the complete lyrics. (Apparently someone took the time to write out the lyrics to all of SNL's parody songs. Yikes.)

What was the name of that parody boy band in the 90s that had a TV show and a song called "The Hardest Part of Breaking Up Is Getting Back Your Stuff"?

They didn't even sing!!

Saying that, watching them all together brought back icky, icky memories of perhaps the only time in my life I contemplated killing myself every single day (junior high). And what was even MORE creepy, is that they were EXACTLY THE SAME.

Donny was all jokey and wise-ass. Joey was cute and jokey. Jordan was high-voiced and pretty. Jon was shy and looked like he was going to throw up, and Danny just stood there being short and monkey-faced.

Oh god...I just don't think I'm ready for this...

Wicked Awesome. Thanks again!

1984?
The New Kids were about 8 years old in '84.

whats is old is new again

donny wahlberg looked about 45 when he was in Band of Brothers seven years ago.

the only people who keep this 80's garbage alive are:
a)people who were not born yet
b)people who were too young to remember how terrible the 80's were
c)people clinging to the "best years of their life" when they went
to high school in an Iroc Z28 with their feathered mullet blowing in the wind coming in from the T-Top.
d) people who fall into c) and still have a T-top Z28 and feathered hair who don't know it's twenty years later.

we used to have 70's parties when i was younger, my parents would say it was because we didn't live through it all, i see their point now.

so when are the 90's coming back? that should be great, grunge, techno GHB ecstasy hammer pants, cross colors, marilyn manson oh boy i just can't wait.

1984, try 1989/1990. Believe me, I remember. Every girl in 7th and 8th grade were absolutely infatuated with New Kids On The Block. And Debbie Gibson.

What did the guys get? Milli Vanilli? pfft...

Closer to 1988. There was some show on Nickelodeon that they debuted on. A kid's version of a Late Night type program, if I recall correctly. I can't remember the name. They came on, did a song or two, and that was the last I heard of them until maybe a year later.
