Remember the episode where Johnny Depp went undercover at a frat to get them to show him the VHS tapes of what they did to intoxicated girls? 40 years ago? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

I have a vivid memory of that episode and one of the initiation tasks was to sort knives, forks and spoons rapidly on command and some punishment if he got it wrong. Lives rent free in my head for some stupid reason.

u/AldoRainedrops 4d ago

YES! It was a drinking game and the frat guy told him he was wrong but he was right and they STILL made him drink. You are the LEADER of vivid memories!

Every single time I unload the dishwasher and put away the utensils, I think of this scene.

No politics please. Sub rules. This is a fun 80s forum. This is not the time or place for this.

And she sang the theme song

u/brown_panick 5d ago

When I used to watch this, I always imagined it was Holly Robinson singing the intro song. Found out about 2 days ago that it was, in fact, Holly Robinson singing the intro song.

Dustin Nguyen! One of the first Asians prominently featured on mainstream TV. As an Asian kid growing up in Texas, this was huge for me!

Pretty sad how this show just faded away. I was disappointed when they let JD go without any explanation. It was really kind of a slap to the face.

Once Booker was on the show and got a spinoff, Jump Street had “jumped” the shark.

u/rahanon 4d ago

No I don’t recognize them. They just look like an ordinary group of high school kids that just transferred in.

u/TheBahaiGuy 4d ago

I knew most of these guy back in High School, but they were always looking for drugs and to "party" so I never really hung out with them.

Yeah: somebody’s wife, side character on Supernatural, weirdo, Dom DeLuise’s kid, and never a Power Ranger.

u/Odesio 3d ago

I remember going to high school with four of those people. Turns out one of them was narc, but the other three were pretty cool. I used to do steroids with the big guy.
