I feel old

astri13It's been many, many years since I watched a TV-show that featured this scene:
Boy and girl go on date - boy's daddy issues get in the way and they start fighting, boy smashes something in anger, girl runs away, boy chases after her and tearfully apologizes - they KISS.
If this means nothing to you, you weren't a teenager in the 80s. :-p Anyhow, my 12/13 year old? (like I said, many, many years) mind adored that scene. And even recently when I watched it again, I still felt shivers of nostalgia. Even though knowing that if I saw something like that today, my cynical self would rip it to shreds.
Now, out of plain curiosity I watched another show of the same name - hard to guess what I'm talking about here, I know. *g* And in this case, time makes all the difference. My cynical self went to town because my pink-robe-clad nostalgia self wasn't there. So, this was my first and last foray down memory lane in that particular case.

I know I watched this show, too, but... I don't remember any smashing...? I do remember something about a hotel room after the prom? But somehow that didn't work out?
The de-virginization hijinks? Yup, though it did work out in the end. :)
The first kiss was pretty early in Season 1.
