We as a species are not ready for 10-15 yrs from now when gen-z memes and culture start being resurrected as nostalgia bait in media. I don’t know if imma be able to do this again guys fr fr
My “you’re old” moment was WKUK references
Also, as a millennial; my parents (boomers) watched Cheers, not I.
Uh, Cheers is GenX, not millenials. 1982-93. Not a lot of babies to 10yo watching Cheers.
I had been thinking that very thing.
That said (and I know I’m an outlier because I’ve been this way since childhood but) I don’t understand these seeming insistences on avoiding the culture signifiers of periods past.
I always loved being familiar with cultural touchstones of the past (I’ve been working on putting All in the Family on our home media center, recently), especially because it creates a deeper understanding and because as you see how they influenced the ones you grew up with.
Culture is yet another way humans tell stories and how we relate with each other and I truly love that.
That’s not how TV in the 80s and 90s worked. Most of the TV we watched as kids in the 80s would have been reruns of things in syndication. Millenials born in 82 would have grown up watching reruns of Cheers for their entire childhood and likely have memories of watching even some of the later episodes live.
Is this from Wicked?
Yup it was a deleted scene. They briefly debated doing Wicked/Marval crossover musical with Starlord in the role of Fiyero Tigelaar.
Audiences were incredibly confused and so we got the Wicked that was released.
