    Alicia I love this movie so much
    CommentsXp Best movie ever!
    Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
    Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
    mamamiasweetpeaches I have been totally sucked into the VH1 I LOVE THE 70s,I LOVE THE 80s and I LOVE THE 80s STRIKES BACK. I started watching because I am a big fan of 70s and 80s pop culture. But along the way I realized that Hal Sparks is the real reason to watch. He's the funniest person I've ever seen on tv in my life. I would watch him to enema infommercials if that was the only gig he could get.(Oh yeah,the other commentators where good too.)
    hkinkennon As somebody who actually lived through the '70s, VH1's special "I Love the '70s" is fun, but not all that it could have been. The show is profoundly lacking in research, playing fast and loose with dates (for example, Nadia Comaneci would have been a "fox" for 1976, NOT 1972). It also spotlights porn -- which was NOT mainstream, as it now pretends to be -- at the expense of bigger '70s phenomena. How can you present the disco decade without the Six Million Dollar Man, the Bay City Rollers, and the death of Elvis? Where are the Dittos jeans, chucka boots, and peasant blouses? The commentators are mostly holdovers from "I Love the '80s" -- while I loved Hal Sparks and Michael Ian Black in "'80s", their commentary is often forced in "70s", and Mo Rocca -- who is about as entertaining as a dose of heat rash -- is especially lacking. Should the producers choose to "strike back" with the '70s, I would advise them to choose more commentators that actually remember the decade. But even then, choose carefully:
    whosthatknockingatmydoor this was really really good but lacks some of the magic i love the 80s produced,i think they made hard decisions cutting off some of those guys,but the new guys are very funny,Luis is a good add,i don't like the red haired chick,Dee,Michael Ian Black,Hal,and Mo are all keepers and i can see how they didn't keep all of them,like the other Mo and carrot top. my vote 9 1/10 - 2
    marissa i was lucky enough to catch this 10 episode miniseries on vh1 during the summer of 2003. being a child of the 80s, i initially wasnt much interested in watching. but after 5 minutes, i was hooked and ive been watching the repeats every time i see them on.i love the 70s offers an hour long recap of a particular year of the decade, complete with all of the wacky toys, stupid movies, memorable tv shows and some of the most familiar faces of the 70s. commentary is offered by such second rate stars as mo rocca, michael ian black, and greg proops, although after seeing their sardonic, comedic genius on the show you wonder why their careers havent taken off as of yet, mo and michael in particular.i love watching the witty one liners and the various stars playing with pet rocks and sea monkeys, and even though i wasnt alive yet in the 70s, i feel as if im reliving a part of my childhood that never existed. i love the 70s made me wish i had caught the previous i love the 80s, where im sure i would have had as much fun (and probably would have remembered a lot more). i loved these 70s!
