Okay, waitwaitwaitwaitwait.

Groundhog Day made the top ten list, but The Breakfast Club was merely an honorable mention? Granted, TBC got entirely overplayed on basic cable for many years (it's probably playing right now), but should such a classic suffer for the uninspired programming of network executives?

Must justice be this harsh?
