Like New Kids On The Block? Then You’ll LOVE Guys Next Door

The year was 1990. The New Kids on the Block were an unstoppable force with their triple-platinum-selling Step By Step. The group would perform close to 200 concerts that year. NBC, looking to cash in on the boy band craze, decided to create their own group, dubbed Guys Next Door. Unlike NKOTB, Guys Next Door did more than just sing. Between music videos, the group would put on a comedy show, like Saturday Night Live. Unlike NKOTB, no one really cared they existed.
Despite scoring a hit with the cheesetastic “I’ve Been Waiting For You,” the show’s popularity never took off and it was promptly canceled and doomed to obscurity. Thanks to YouTube, Guys Next Door will never be forgotten.
Now that NKOTB are back, we wonder if a Guys Next Door reunion is far off. We would possibly pay a buck to see them live (given that it’s convenient enough for us and there’s free snacks).
