Description
Hello, Wisconsin! It's 1995 and Leia Forman, daughter of Eric and Donna, is visiting her grandparents for the summer where she bonds with a new generation of Point Place kids under the watchful eye of Kitty and the stern glare of Red. Sex, drugs and rock 'n roll never dies, it just changes clothes.
Review
Author: GenerationofSwine
I'm Gen-X which I assume is that they are trying to depict here. And back then if you labeled people and treated them differently because of what they were, you were the a**hole because you were judging people on what they were not WHO they were.
You even tried to avoid wearing labels.
You had bands that made a point to wear t-shirts rejecting corporate magazines on the cover of the corporate magazines.
You mocked people who were politically correct, and Hollywood made movies mocking political correctness. Comedians made fun of it. It was rejected>
Everyone brought "Jagged Little Pill" and only the women admitted to buying it.
yeah... the 90s were completely different than the 2020s, so much so that the people that this would be made for would be insulted by the very essence of that culture.
Which is why the kids, the jokes, the humor all seems to fit well with a 2020s Nickelodeon kids show.
It rejects the 90s culture so much it doesn't even work as nostalgia. It even rejects That 70s Show's beloved tropes and doesn't work as nostalgia for the show it's rebooting.
Might as well just put on Nickelodeon.
