Everyone always talks about how good the 90's were. What was bad about the '90s?

I remember watching something really interesting on TV, and they had finally arrived on the topic I was waiting for. And just when they were about to show the answer to something I'd been wondering about for ages, my grandma walked in front of the TV.
I vividly remember that sad sinking feeling as I silently concluded "I guess I'll live the rest of my life without knowing, then..."
I learned how to program the VCR when i was really young. Then Pokémon came out. I missed the first episode, but i was so happy that I could watch the series, I didn’t care that much. Then, I learned that the series was repeating, and they were showing the first episode!
I set up my VCR to record it, as I was at school when it played. I got home and dashed to the family TV, and started watching. I was sooooo happy to finally see the episode that started it all!
During the Spearow horde, Pikachu jumps on Ash’s shoulder. Then the cable cut out. Silence. Until it comes back, and Ask and Pikachu are laying on the floor, coming to grips with what just happened.
I fell the the floor and WAILED, pounding both fists on the floor. I is maybe the most devastated I’ve ever been in my life.
You could have gone to the library and looked in the encyclopedias for a sentence fragment on the topic.
Damn, that must have been so frustrating!
