- The Carlsons enter the 1990s with Melanie and Dave looking forward to the girls experiencing their childhoods as they were actual teenagers in this decade. Among the things the girls will experience this decade in terms of wintertime activities include snowboarding, which was seen then as the activity of the rebellious, tubing, board games in this, the pre-Internet era, and the DIY project of homemade scrunchies, a fashion accessory worn by every young female. The kitchen duties are now shared by the family as women increasingly were part of the workforce, with Dave taking on his first solo meal of the experiment, using the familiar equipment the domain of the male, namely the barbecue, even in winter. The thought of the day in terms of health and food was that fat, especially saturated fat, was bad, much of that fat in processed foods being replaced by sugar. Although the lower carb trend would emerge later in the decade, other healthier options did include more fresh fruit and whole grains. Dave in the kitchen allows Melanie to partake in her own outdoor activity which became popular as the baby boomers started to age, namely power walking, seen as kinder on the joints that the 80s high impact aerobics. But as the decade comes to a close, so does the harsh winter, allowing the family to get outside for activities not necessarily associated with winter. The end of the decade also saw the issues associated with Y2K which made people reflect more on the past. The Carlsons close out the experiment with a past-time typical of Canada and which they could do in the milder end of winter.

- 2011– 45m7.2 (6)TV EpisodeIn the mid 1950s, much of the direct battle between the US and the Soviet Union was not through contact, but non-contact, namely not allowing anything that represented the other to enter the country. As such, the Soviet regime banned something they thought was uniquely American: jazz music. But the new Soviet leader, Nikita Khrushchev, wanted to show the world that his country was not as repressive as many in the west believed. So he hosted the World Youth Festival in Moscow in 1957, inviting youth from around the world to have a basically western styled party. This opened the floodgates of Soviet youth being exposed to western trappings, including jazz music, which he could not suppress in its entirety following. Over the subsequent few years, this would lead to greater contact between the Soviet and US political leaders - much of it through sanctioned nationalistic trade shows - culminating in a propaganda war over of all things the washing machine. Another battleground was the space race, which was seen as synonymous to the arms race. On earth, two emerging areas were also becoming battlegrounds. One was Africa, where a plethora of newly independent countries were looking for financial support and guidance from the two superpowers. The other was Latin America, first specifically in Guatemala, where the United Fruit Company, an American company controlling commercial trade in Guatemala through the export of bananas, launched a Madison Avenue developed publicity campaign to show its newly elected government as being Communist, even though its policies were not Communist but rather anti-United Fruit. Although this campaign would succeed, it would lead to two anti-Imperialist revolutionaries, Ernesto 'Che' Guevara and Fidel Castro, being able to seize control of the government in Cuba. Castro was not Communist but Nationalist, which many Americans believe to be one in the same. Because of the deterioration of relations between Castro and the US, Castro turned to the Soviet Union for support, when Cuba truly became a Communist country. This battleground contained perhaps the tensest days of the Cold War, most specifically the Cuban Missile Crisis. And a traditional battleground re-emerged when the Soviet regime restricted travel between east and west with the sudden and surprise erection of the Berlin Wall.
- Walking into the house for the first time, the Campuses can immediately tell that the 1960s will be lighter and more fun, which it will be to reflect the more open attitudes that emerge. Tristan is still stuck in the kitchen - at least in the beginning of the decade - but will have a new cooking guide in the form of Julia Child, who brought gourmet French food, previously solely the domain of swanky restaurants, into the home kitchen. Tristan will also have more help in the form of what she's used to in modern day: processed foods to enable cooking short cuts, including the space aged mashed potato flakes. By mid-decade, Italian became the new food trend with the onset of what is now considered the go to dinners of pasta or pizza. The end result of these food changes is that Tristan will now have more time to spend with the family in more fun pursuits. Fashion and style of the decade is influenced by the likes of Jacqueline Kennedy and The Beatles. The Campus kids move from the 1950s hangout of the diner to the 1960s hangout of the coffee house, which was the hotbed of politically charged folk music and protest. Tristan's emergence from the kitchen is in part due to the rise of feminism, with Aaron taking on this first real role in cooking, although his designated cooking appliance, the charcoal barbecue, is a different beast than the gas powered barbecue to which he is used. Celebratory themed meals are served for two milestone occasions: Canada's centennial in 1967 - which has its own emotional issues for Aaron in being part indigenous, that part which was stripped from his mother in marrying a non-indigenous person - and the Apollo 11 moonwalk in 1969.
- The Campuses enter the last decade of the experiment to find their house is designed for comfort and relaxation as people begin to see their homes as their sanctuary. Domestic gods and goddesses populating the airwaves, people like Martha Stewart, show how to entertain at home in style and with flair, a small dinner party which Tristan and Aaron will be hosting for a small group of friends for their first meal of the decade. Part of that do it yourself entertaining includes the boom in wine making shops. More prepared foods and packaged foods come on the market and all you can eat buffets become popular to make life easier for the diverse family, who begin to go off in different directions in their scheduled activities. Those domestic entertaining lifestyle shows are just part of the information overload that begin with 24-hour news channels, home computers and the Internet, the combination which kept people plugged into such events as the O.J. Simpson white SUV chase. As the population ages, low impact exercise, such as power walking and step aerobics, becomes the rage. Issues such as contaminated water lead to more and more bottled water being consumed, and with it the recycling movement takes hold to deal with all that additional waste. As with most other decades, pop music influences teen style, this decade which has a more relaxed style associated with grunge, alternative rock and mainstream country, while Tristan gets a little guidance from a style icon to dress for the decade of the supermodel. Unlike other decades however, the teens, Valerie in particular, will be doing something different from the other decades: get a part-time job, specifically at an Italian coffee house where caffè lattes are de rigeur as the gateway coffee drink to the more traditional and stronger espresso, while Robert gets back what are arguably his two greatest comfort foods, chicken nuggets and hard-shelled tacos made with a packaged mix. On "December 31, 1999", the Campuses celebrate both the end of the millennium and the end of the experiment with the most lavish meal of their six decades where they will be able to discuss with Carlo their entire experience, only in knowing the outcome of the Y2K crisis that gripped the world that actual day.
