5 Classic '90s TV Shows Netflix Should Bring Back

It's finally here, "Full House" fans. Netflix has answered your prayers and resurrected the Tanner clan for "Fuller House." Here are five more classic shows from the '90s Netflix should bring back. 

'Family Matters' (1989 - 1998)

Why the internet has yet to Kickstart another trip to the Winslows' house feels wrong. Like "Full House," "Family Matters" was a cornerstone of ABC's "TGIF" line-up. It's fans deserve further adventures of Urkel and, of course, Stefan Urkel. If all works out, maybe Urkel and the Tanners can have another crossover episode. 

'My So-Called Life' (1994 - 1995)

This show practically writes itself: Angela Chase, now all growns up and a mom herself, struggles to raise her teenage daughter -- who has a crush that makes Jordan Catalano look like Screech. Speaking of Screech... 

'Saved By the Bell' (1988 - 2000)

Sure, it started in the late '80s, but it wasn't until the '90s that teens got hooked on the Bayside crew. As much as we'd love to see Mark-Paul Gosselaar do double duty as both Zack Morris and Peter Bash on a "Franklin & Bash & Bell" hybrid, we'd settle for Zack returning to Bayside to teach kids the dangers of '80s cell phone use and how to stop time for fourth-wall breaks. 

'Freaks and Geeks' (1999 - 2000)

Truer words, Haverchuck. Truer words... If you haven't seen this show, stream it on Netflix. Then write them all the letters about doing a reunion show that catches up with the adult-versions of our favorite characters as they adjust to life in the real world -- as Nick Andopolis plays drums in some band. 

'Where In the World Is Carmen Sandiego?' (1991 - 1995)

Listen up, gumshoes -- this show needs to happen. Netflix has a strong block of animated children's programming, time to add this live-action fan-favorite to it. But only if Rockapella signs on.
