I love the television show, The Goldbergs. It takes me back to the 80s in a wonderful way. I was a teenager during the 80s and I have such fond memories of the decade of Excess and MTV.
One of my favorite 80s movies is Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. It is a classic of epic proportions and it was our fantasy to have a hooky day from school half as KOOL as the one that Ferris had.
Charlie Sheen has a small part in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off as “Boy in the Police Station”. He was the bad boy with a Leather Jacket in the police station and he talks to Ferris’ sister, Jeanie. It is a classic scene (see below video)
According to People, The Goldbergs will have a their own tribute to Ferris with an episode where Barry ditches school but his day is a typical “Barry” day instead of a Ferris’ Day Off. It will have Barry’s sister, Erica, end up at the police station and meeting the original “Boy in the Police Station”. I hope Erica doesn’t make out with him like Jeanie did.
Stay Geeky My Friends!
