The familiar strains of Joe Cocker’s take on ‘With a Little Help From My Friends’ set the scene for this milestone rites of passage comedy/drama about growing up in the turbulent 60s. Told from Kevin Arnold's point-of-view through the narration of Daniel Stern, ‘The Wonder years’ won multiple Emmy Awards for Outstanding Direction and Writing, and Outstanding Comedy Series.

The late 1960s and the Vietnam War is broadcast nightly, students are marching in protest.  Flower Power is in full bloom and change is everywhere… especially in the suburbs!

Meet Kevin (Fred Savage) a bright-eyed kid whose most pressing concern in life is junior high and all the crises that go with it, like the first kiss with his sweetheart Winnie Cooper (Danica McKellar) or the first time he ditches school. It’s the time a guy has to learn the facts of life, without his parents finding out.

With a dry sense of humour and insight one gains with maturity, a grown-up Kevin provides commentary on himself as a young boy trying to cope with the bizarre world of being a teenager. He introduces us to life in the suburbs, with Mom (Alley Mills) and Dad (Dan Lauria) trying to rule his roost. Older sister Karen (Olivia D’Abo), who thinks she’s been given the wisdom of the ages, and big brother Wayne (Jason Hervey) who exists only to torment him.  Luckily he has his best friend Paul (Josh Saviano) who’s allergic to everything but a loyal friend, down to the last sneeze.

It’s not easy growing up, but the laughter and friendship make it all worthwhile. There’s something unforgettable about those years, and now is the time to enjoy them – THE WONDER YEARS.
