30 Years Ago ‘Disorderlies’ Was Released, and My Life Changed Forever

There are certain movies that molded my childhood. A lot of those movies simply had to do with the fact they were on TV all the damn time. Disorderlies is one of those movies.

When I was a kid, I spent a large portion of my summers in front of the TV. Yes, I did get out of the house and play. I also played a lot of baseball during the summer. But I did watch a lot of television.

For the life of me, I can't remember what channel it was always on. I want to say Comedy Central, but it could have been TBS or WGN. Maybe WGN. Anyway, it was on all the time, and I watched it every... damn... time.

If you've never seen Disorderlies, you can check out the trailer below (courtesy of Matt Camarco). This movie was also the reason I tried to beat box as a kid. And yeah, I still can't.
