The ABC series of Wonder Years originated in 1988, but thestory takes plac
ein 1968.  The story arc is from 1968 to 1973.  A few years back a similar
show came out where the stories were based on stuff he recorded as a kid on
his parent's camcorder.  The show was about the late 80's/early 90's however
it didn't have that same magic as Wonder Years did.
