The '80s: The Decade That Made Us (TV Miniseries)

It was 10 years of non-stop glamour, unchecked excess, ruthless ambition and explosive technological innovation that combined to produce the historic changes and global events that made you who and what you are today. The fingerprints of the decade best known for Pac-Man and the personal computer are everywhere in your daily lives: the first launch of NASA’s Space Shuttle triggered a technological explosion in global communications that now makes your world-wide love affair with smartphones and the Internet possible; when Madonna rolled around on stage in a wedding dress at a music awards show, it sent shock waves through a celebrity-hungry world that now can’t get enough of “Gangnam Style” and Lady Gaga today. Featuring original interviews from music and film superstars as well as global titans of technology, business, media and politics, this series is an epic journey back in time with unforgettable archival footage and memorable moments that only the 80’s could provide.
