In a new special edition, PEOPLE remembers 1982, the year that Madonna emerged from the clubs of New York, Duran Duran’s Rio dominated MTV, and David Letterman first sat behind a late-night desk. Denzel Washington did rounds every week on the TV hospital drama St. Elsewhere, and Norm first walked into Cheers, where viewers would join him for the next 11 seasons. E.T. placed a very-long-distance call, and Sean Penn’s Jeff Spicoli placed a pizza order to his history class at Ridgemont High, only to have it confiscated by the teacher, Mr. Hand—bogus! It was the year Olivia Newton-John and Jane Fonda reshaped their images by getting “Physical” and working out. (Is there anything more ’80s than a celeb wearing a sweatband on a red carpet?) Elsewhere, Cats pattered onto Broadway, first lady Nancy Reagan instructed America’s youth to “Just Say No” to drugs, and Charles and Diana welcomed their first son, Prince William. Relive those amazing times and more in this photo-filled celebration of the ’80s.
