We all know the Spice Girls. But what was that other British girl group? You know, the one that sang that catchy little number "Never Ever?"

Question 6 of 8 Score: 0

This handheld digital pet was supposed to make you feel like you were taking care of a real child:

The Tamagotchi was released by Japanese company Bandai in 1996. The game begins with an egg on the screen, going through several stages of growth and even getting "sick" (the skull icon let you know you would be tied up for awhile).

"The Rachel" was a highly sought-after haircut made famous by Jennifer Aniston, who played Rachel in "Friends."

Question 7 of 8 Score: 0

Fess up: You went to the salon and asked for this haircut specifically. You usually didn't end up looking like that, though.

"The Rachel" was a highly sought-after haircut made famous by Jennifer Aniston, who played Rachel in "Friends." These days, the 46-year-old actress says she's "all about a low-maintenance approach."

Question 8 of 8 Score: 0

Let's call this one a freebie. Who played Michelle on 'Full House'?

If you didn't know that Michelle Tanner, the youngest of Danny Tanner's daughters on the hokey-yet-lovable sitcom "Full House," was played by the Olsen twins – who are now certified fashion icons, mind you – then you were obviously asleep between 1987 and 1995.
