National Geographic Channel (NGC) has began production on The 80’s: The Decade That Made Us (working title), a miniseries that will feature the people, the inventions and the decisions that changed our future, told from the perspective of unknowing history makers who lived these moments.

The network is partnering with Nutopia, the creator of megadocs including America The Story of Us, to produce this multi-part series scheduled to premiere on National Geographic Channels globally.

“Many retrospectives have been done, but we’re going to look at this decade that defined us with a new lens as told through surprising and unexpected game changers and history makers,” said Owens. “This greenlight reflects National Geographic Channel’s commitment to partnering with renowned producers with proven track records to develop and showcase a wide range of creative content.”

In this landmark series, viewers can get back in touch with their inner Valley girls by reliving classic 80s music, inspirational sports moments, and scenes from iconic movies and TV shows, as well as the very best (and worst) of hair and fashion.
