| 4081 | The Goldbergs | <blockquote rel="blueluigi"><b>blueluigi wrote :</b> I remember reading a few years ago that there was development about a TV series that was going to be like "The Wonder Years", but takes place in the 80s. I wonder if this was the show they were referring to. </blockquote> This show feels very much like that. Like a "Wonder Years" for the 80's, with a bit of "Married With Children" thrown in for good measure. | Vaporman87 | Oct 07, 2013 |  |
| 4080 | Halloween Nostalgia & More! | Has there been any good "adult" Halloween specials so far? I watched the specials for American Dad, Bob's Burgers, Family Guy and The Simpsons and I wasn't really a fan of any. | PastGarden | Oct 07, 2013 | |
| 4079 | Things you don't like about this era. | So, it's true then? Wrestling has gone back to it's PG roots? I actually like the sound of that. I could never have watched a wrestling event with my children just 10 years ago. It had basically devolved into a shockfest. Seriously... when Mae Young is giving birth to a hand... that's just pathetic. Hilarious, but pathetic. | Vaporman87 | Oct 07, 2013 | |
| 4078 | Halloween Nostalgia & More! | <blockquote rel="blueluigi"><b>blueluigi wrote :</b> It'd be interesting to see what a Pixar TV show would be like. </blockquote> Indeed. I wouldn't even be very concerned with lower quality animation for television so long as the writing was up to Pixar's standards (not counting Cars 2 :roll: ). | Vaporman87 | Oct 07, 2013 | |

Much obliged. | Mr Magic | Oct 07, 2013 | |

Those are just my guesses. The internet informs everything they do, and it's chock-full-o-nutstalgia. | shakin steak | Oct 07, 2013 | |
| 4072 | Things you don't like about this era. | <blockquote rel="shakin steak"><b>shakin steak wrote :</b><br> I think it's the culture they are exposed to. The internet fetishizes the 80s and 90s, because the kids who grew up then are the people who first grew up with internet access as a commodity. On top of that: <br> <br> Hollywood is running the remake train into the ground. what can the kids be expected to think when so many movies are outsourced to the past, and we keep doing superhero origin stories over and over?<br> <br> There is a serious lack of a strong music movement for the past ten years or so. There is a lot of music coming out, but without a nationwide trend featuring many artists and enthusiastic radio support by real DJs, there's not much to connect to. I'm very grateful for my local scene.<br> <br> Youth TV programming production values have plummeted. And what kid would not thrill to the glory days of Saturday morning cartoons? <br> <br> Narrative structures in adult programming, while still prevalent, continue to decline in favor of "reality" genres.<br> <br> Pop culture is diluted now. There is so much of it and the good-to-bad ratio is pretty low. </blockquote> You are right about remakes, but if the kids looked hard enough, I'm sure that there is originality out there. A percentage of the music of the last 13 years has been decent, but without any clear direction. Personally, I just don't really like those talent/singing shows (American Idol, X Factor, America's Got Talent). They just don't seem authentic, at least today. As for kids thrilling "glory days of Saturday morning cartoons", there is some sense to that, but it just seems silly for 17 year olds to be approaching life with a nostalgic attitude when they're still very young. | PastGarden | Oct 07, 2013 | |
