Fantasy
Fantasy is a genre of fiction that uses magic or other supernatural elements as a main plot element, theme, or setting. Many works within the genre take place in imaginary worlds where magic and magical creatures are common. Fantasy is generally distinguished from the genres of science fiction and horror by the expectation that it steers clear of scientific and macabre themes, respectively, though there is a great deal of overlap between the three, all of which are subgenres of speculative fiction.
In popular culture, the fantasy genre is predominantly of the medievalist form. In its broadest sense, however, fantasy comprises works by many writers, artists, filmmakers, and musicians, from ancient myths and legends to many recent and popular works.
Fantasy is studied in a number of disciplines including English and other language studies, cultural studies, comparative literature, history, and medieval studies. Work in this area ranges widely, from the structuralist theory of Tzvetan Todorov, which emphasizes the fantastic as a liminal space, to work on the connections (political, historical, literary) between medievalism and popular culture.

Taglines: A lighter look at what happens in the dark. Stacy and Melissa are about to discover a new four-letter word for sex in the '80s... Help! Stacy and Melissa are in search for the world's most endangered species... The Perfect Man.
Quotes:
Stacy: [narrating] It was the early eighties, and sex was still a good way to meet new people.Stacy: [narrating] Okay, when I first met Vinny, I thought, this guy is a living argument for birth control. But as I get to know him better, I realize he's just like the rest of us: a mess.
Stacy: I was celibate for so long, I started to feel like a can of kitchen cleanser: you know, sterile and gritty and abrasive. When we made love -- I don't know, I felt like a human again, a mammal, with breasts.
Stacy: "Safe sex" -- who would have ever thought those two words would exist in the same sentence?
Stacy: Yeah. Now, when you're with a guy, you're not just sleeping with him, you're sleeping with everyone they've had sex with.::Ilene: And everyone they've had sex with.::Ilene, Melissa: And everyone *they've* had sex with!::Melissa: Gee, I'm a lot more experienced than I thought I was!::[They laugh.]
Ilene: What do you miss most about sex?::Stacy: Whoo... I miss falling asleep with someone's arms around me. And the feeling of, mm...::Ilene: Orgasm? I love orgasms.::Stacy: Mmm. I'm sick of my Mighty Intruder vibrator with the flexible shaft and the textured head.
Stacy: This is kind of embarrassing to admit, but I remember when it was actually fun to say, "WOW, that really felt great! What's your name again?"::Melissa: I've never had sex with someone I didn't know. For that matter, I've never said, "Wow, that felt really great."
[About the sexy Megan.]::Stacy: Don't let it get to you. Just think, if you separated her individual body parts with, say, like a huge a meat cleaver, and then laid them out on a table, you wouldn't think she was such hot stuff.
[After reading the "Pretend You're Sensitive Handbook".]::Vinny: Stacy, how nice to see you. Do you have a few minutes? I mean, it occurred to me, I don't even know where you work.::Stacy: Where I work?::Vinny: Yeah, you know, your career plans, your dreams, your aspirations... I really want to hear all about them.::Stacy: What I want? I don't even know -- ask me what anyone else wants. Give me three seconds, I'll figure out your whole entire life.::Vinny: Would you maybe want to share something with me about your childhood, perhaps?::Stacy: Vinny, what the hell are you talking about? I'm in a big rush. Look, I have to go talk to Melissa, because if I don't figure out something about my life soon, I'm going to crack!::Vinny: I respect your strength, Stacy, and I think you've got a lot of potential!
[Everyone is wearing a cap with a hollow post on top.]::Emcee: Well, I hope you've kept your flags well hidden, because if you haven't guessed by now, the person whose flag matches yours will be your date for the evening. Okay? But now the moment's come, so let's unfurl our flags, let's just take them out right now, let's wave them up in the air, shall we? Come on, there we go, wave it, wave it, there we go. This is how it works. You take your flag, and you stick it in the lovely hole right on top of your head, that's right. Just like that. Then, when I blow the whistle, you run, find your partner, fall in love, and have babies. Yes, it's that easy!

Fantasy
"Fantasy" was all that the title implied: Ordinary people from all over the United States would write in to have their wishes granted on national television. Although some of the fantasies were downright fatuous (e.g. one man wanted to twist his ankles inward on national television), and some of the musical acts were equally silly and at times contrived (e.g. one group who called themselves the "Rhythm Rascals," who played old-timey music and purported they performed at Disneyland's Diamond Horseshoe Revue, was actually three groups who previously appeared on the program combined into one group), "Fantasy" was definitely at its best when it focused on human interest stories, such as reuniting long-lost family members or friends and helping those who could not afford basic family needs (e.g. one Chicago area teen's parents were financially unable to get him braces, and the "Fantasy" staff helped make that a reality). Despite the aforementioned goofiness of some of the contestants' wishes, "Fantasy" had a habit-forming "hook" about it, and this was definitely a series that could be enjoyed by the whole family (in today's climate of trashy daytime talk shows and soap operas, a wholesome show like "Fantasy" would most certainly be a welcome breath of fresh air). Unfortunately, NBC pitted the program against then red-hot "General Hospital" on ABC, and as a result "Fantasy" suffered anemic ratings; some NBC affiliates didn't even air the show, contributing to that problem. "Fantasy" left the air 13 months later on Friday, October 28, 1983.

Fantasy
Every man has a place
In his heart there's a space
And the world can't erase his fantasies
Take a ride in the sky
On our ship fantasise
All your dreams will come true right away
And we will live together
Until the twelfth of never
Our voices will ring forever as one
Every thought is a dream
Rushing by in a stream
Bringing life to your kingdom of doing
Take a ride in the sky
On our ship fantasise
All your dreams will come true miles away
Our voices will ring together
Until the twelfth of never
We all will love together as one
Come to see victory
In a land called fantasy
Loving life a new degree
Bring your mind to everlasting liberty
As one
Come to see victory
In a land called fantasy
Loving life for you and me
To behold to your soul is ecstasy
You will find other kind
That has been in search of you
Many lives have brought you to
Recognise it's your life now in review
As you stay for the play
Fantasy has in store for you
A glowing light will see you through
It's your day shining day
All your dreams come true
As you glide in your stride
With the wind as you fly away
Give a smile from your lips and say
Are you free yes I'm free
And I'm on my way
