Madonna. Prince. Cyndi Lauper. Oprah. The Breakfast Club. Sixteen Candles. Risky Business. Eddie Murphy. Big hair. MTV. The Cosby Show. Cheers. Back to the Future. Blockbuster Video. Fluorescent everything. The Facts of Life. Grease. John Travolta. Olivia Newton-John. Sheena Easton. Flashdance. Footloose. Michael J. Fox. The list goes on forever. So how did the culture we all worshipped — the icons, the movies, the shows we couldn't stop quoting — become the culture we're now told to feel bad about? Did we get it wrong the whole time?
