For those interested in re-watching, the amazing season one is currently showing at 1:40 to 3:40pm on Sundays and is the one thing that I look forward to , in order to make my week complete, with its feel good and light entertainment, mixed with the dramatic naustalgia associated with the sixties.

Something that captivates me is the opening theme song, that is complete with Brittany Snow who is dancing. This show is made even better with its inclusion of "American Bandstand" which is always fun and beautiful.

Awesome guys!

Well, in the States its called "American Dreams" but i suppose, the name of the show with the word "American" doesnt sound as appealing, and "Our Generation" is a title more suited anyway. Weird.

Sadly today, there is only one episode of "Our Generation" but it goes for an hour. It begins at 2:40pm after Coxy's Big Break and on Channel 7.

Tonight also has Season 1 Episode 1 of it on W under the title 'American Dreams'.

the eldest boy.. has he been on any other shows? I know i have seen him on something else before, but I don't know what.
From what i've seen, and grown up watching Will Estes - Meego, Alex Mack, U-571, Kirk, How to Make an American Quilt, The New Lassie?

Im a bit of a fan, the reason i started watching Our Generation in the first place.

To Everyone Else - I'll type up a little catch up thing on Thursday (when my HSC is over!)

And Tommy....JUMP ON THE BANDWAGON BUDDY! You're Gonna Love it!

Kirk? Kinda rings a bell.... maybe something else?
What's his real name anyway? I can't be bothered googling it.
Like i said, its "Will Estes" :)

Kirk is with Kirk Cameron where he played one of the kids that Kirk Cameron adopted, when his parents passed away and he and his siblings had to move in.

This is Kirk Cameron



Alex Mack you should remember from ABC, where he played one of Larissa Olyeniks friends.

Meego was about the Alien who goes to live with Ed Begley Jr. 's Family, that includes Michelle Tratchenberg and Will Estes.

Mhm, I know. Milo Ventimiglia. My friend Ted tells me he thought Season 1 was amazing, season 2 is awful, and season 3 starts to approach mediocrity.
