Bold, brash, and smart as a whip, Jayne Mansfield simply loved to push the limits of decency. In the 1950s, Mansfield’s scandalous hour-glass figure caused an absolute frenzy. Her buxom chest was so popular, talk show host Jack Parr even once introduced her onto The Tonight Show by saying, “Here they are, Jayne Mansfield.” Making great use of her good looks and figure, Mansfield was not only a rabidly popular actress, but also one of the most vivacious and visible icons of her age—until it all ended in one of the most shocking tragedies Hollywood had ever seen.

The 90s didn’t just do sitcoms, they practically engineered the comfort-food blueprint. The jokes were built for rewatching, the characters felt like people you’d actually miss, and the episodes didn’t demand a spreadsheet to understand what was happening. Even if you didn’t grow up in the decade, these shows still hit because they’re simple in the best way: funny setups, sharp timing, and just enough heart to make the laughs stick. Here are 20 90s sitcoms that still feel like they’re playing in a different league.

A look at Amanda Bynes’ rise from child stardom to public struggles, and how she’s now choosing peace, privacy, and healing after years in the spotlight.

Fame turned Jayne Mansfield into a symbol, but symbols rarely tell the whole story. Education and strategy shaped her career, but behind the seemingly clueless blonde, there was ambition that helped her cement her name in Hollywood.

Everyone remembers the hero, until a different presence lingers longer than the plot itself. Val Kilmer’s Tombstone performance proved that dominance on screen didn’t need strength to feel dangerous or unforgettable.

Detective shows are some of the easiest series to get hooked on. There’s just something so satisfying about watching smart people piece together clues, follow bad leads, and finally crack the case. Whether it’s cozy mysteries, grim psychological thrillers, or long-running procedurals, these shows nailed the formula and gave us detectives we still love following.
