I was a late-1990s kid, I hope my answers aren't too stupid
Do any episodes survive of 1950s Australian version of "What's My Line"?

The tv shows. They were all so marketable, it was almost as if they took over pop culture. No matter what genre, there was just enough content to aim at kids as well as adults, whereas right now, the content is mostly for one or the other. The only shows with any real mainstream appeal right now, are the ones that actually acknowledge their fame. Basically reality tv or any show about music, which just sucks.

The ridiculous fashion trends. JNCO jeans and the less expensive Lee Pipes I used to get these pants stuck in my bike chain LOL. They were always paired with Airwalks or Vans shoes. If you were really cool, you had a chain wallet. The one great thing about JNCO jeans is you could carry a liter of soda in the back pocket.

I don't think anyone has mentioned pagers/beepers. Maybe it's just a regional thing, but I can remember several teens and adults having them. Cell phones were the size of bricks and charged like $10 a minute back then. Remember?

So, most people opted for a pager.

Speaking of which, I recall the late-1990s, when:
A mobile phone was just a phone (I'm not sure when they started having the "Snake" game on them, was that late-1990s or early-2000s?)
Nobody under 18 had a mobile phone.

Good one Paco. I was watching Saved By the Bell last Saturday and Zack had that huge phone. Lets not forget Beverly Hills 90210 when they had the car phones. They talk about people today talking and driving back in the 90s if you had a car phone you could talk and drive.lol.
I remember the pager and beeper I never had one I didn't need I think some kids at my school had a pager or beeper.
