With streaming and on-demand services making entertainment as accessible as ever, television is currently in the midst of a renaissance of sorts, as there seems to be a new binge-worthy series introduced to the public every time we finish the last. While this current era of television is both convenient and wildly entertaining, there's nothing like catching a blast from the past from tuning into your favorite TV shows from yesteryear.
Like most things during the '90s, television was at its peak, with a number of iconic and groundbreaking shows keeping up captivated on a weekly basis.
