The ’80s Issue: The Goldbergs Go Dirty Dancing
Nobody puts The Goldbergs in the corner. The 1980s set ABC sitcom is having the time of its life with this year’s big movie homage, Dirty Dancing. “My whole childhood was filtered through movies,” says series creator Adam F. Goldberg (who has based the show on his own rambunctious family). “That’s how I related to the world. For this episode, I looked to my mom. This was her movie. My memories of Dirty Dancing are me being dragged to it and her watching it over and over.”
