>contemporary sitcoms are doing flash-back episodes to the 90s and 00s the way shows used to flash back to the 70s and 80s when you were a kid

>contemporary sitcoms
there's your problem
>people will actually feel nostalgic over the '00s in your lifetime and not actually realise it was a fucking horrible decade when everything got terrible.
>>62879841
that was the 90s, though.
>>62879808
I can see how a 90s flashback episode would work, but how would a 00s episode work?
1980 was 35 years ago.
In 1980, 35 years ago would have been 1945.
Think about that for a second. Think about how far removed those cultures are. How completely unrelated and ancient seeming. That is how kids today reflect on the 80s.
Gen Y are already dinosaurs in this age and their culture is void of any substance. Gen X is already forgotten. Their only claim to fame was grunge music and that is quickly leaving the long term annals of music history.
>>62879808
Simpsons did flashback clip shows all the time
It's just a way to make money while not generating any new content
>>62879872

For early 00s
Eminem and baggy clothes bling centered angry rap culture back then.
Britney Xtina Nsync and all their clones and the bubllegum culture that spawned until 911 dimmed it
Numetal, limp bizkit, linkin park and all the clones - more angsty angry music
Emo scene and Goth scene
E-dating becoming a real thing
Old social media platforms lie myspace or even earlier ones
Char groups, etc. The internet is a goldmine for recent nostalgia
It's easy to go back 15 and make it seem long ago. They did it all the time in the 90s, making the 80s look way more ridiculous than they actually were. The 80s did the same to the disco 70s and so forth.
>>62879891
Ain't even clicking that shit.
>>62879890
Not clip shows you retard, he's talking about "flashback episodes" where the episode takes place in a different era and the fashions and stereotypes of that decade are played up for laughs.
>their series doesn't have a clipshow for its second episode
>if That 70s Show was made today, it would be set in 1994
>>62880310
damn
>>62880310
I would watch that show

DUDE PASSAGE OF TIME LMAO
This wouldn't bother you nearly as much if you ever actually accomplished anything
2006 to 2010 were the last good years for music, movies, TV shows and videogames, now everything is just crap.
We had great consoles like PS3 and Wii, now we have crap like PS4 and WiiU, we had great pop music like Daniel Powter and Sean Paul, now it's all Justin Bieber and Pitbull. We had great movies like Transformers and Pirates of Caribbean, now we have Transformers 4 and PoC 5, we had The Big Bang Theory and Heroes, now we have just The Big Bang Theory and Heroes Reborn. Everything went into shit.
>kids born in 1995 are now in their twenties
>>62879891
I don't think Youtube clickbaiters that only choose the ignorant and even then only keep the interesting reactions are very indicative of anything
>>62879841
>>62882904
>kids born in the early 90s think the 90s were a golden age
>>62879808
i know right? it's like there are different decades that are now considered "the past" than their used to be!
>>62882895
Kill yourself
>>62882955
Kid born in early 80s here, 90s was THE golden age. I hate 80s. Fashion, music, movies, TV shows, etc....
>>62883275
idiot
>>62883395
>le calling idiot meme
>tfw
Thankfully we now live in a world where we can watch whatever we want to watch.
I remember so many shitty summer days in the 90s with nothing to do, shit all on TV, didn't have any video games til I got my first job in 97 and bought it myself, no VCR, no instant porn. 90s were pretty shitty shitty if you weren't a cool kid, apart from all the angsty music, that was cool.
>>62880166
That shit was pretty good
Even though it was rough, the show had its moments
>>62883679
Why are we walking like this?
>>62880310
are you trying to upset me?
>>62883540
good old days when being a nerd actually meant being a NEET and not some hipster douchebag hopping the bandwagon
>>62883540
It doesn't even make sense for The Simpsons to "flash back" to the 90s when the show was still airing in the 90s.
That whole episode just... it can't be canon. Why even do it?
>>62883540
It was far from shitty. That was when I actually when outside and hung out with people. It's your fault for keeping yourself inside like a faggot.
>>62884043
>Australian summer
>outside
There's a reason I've got to the ripe old age of 35 without skin cancer, but it's clear you were barely cognizant at that point anyway kiddo.
I still miss emo boys, a lot of them ironically pulled off androgyny better than the crazy SJW kids obsessed with gender do nowadays.
>>62883275
I was born early 80s and don't remember much of the decade, but I have really gotten into a buncha the music and movies of the era. Makes me wish I coulda seen it first hand.
>>62884222
You were born then? Huh, I figured you were younger than me, I'm 29.
>>62884126
> emo
Does anyone remember when Buddy Holly looking dorks like Weezer were emo, not kinda gothy kinda punky androgenous boys in skinny jeans?
>time is passing
WOW WHO WOULDA THOUGHT
>>62884268
>implying time actually exists
bet you think eyes and mirrors are real too
>>62882895
yes, please kill yourself
>>62880310
It's pretty mind-blowing that the 1970s to the 1990s were like the 1990s to today. I dunno. The 1970s didn't seem that far away for me.
>>62880310
Wtf
>think about "cool" guys
>automatically think some dudes with spiked hairs, sunglasses, graffiti, chin beards, frosted tips, the offspring, nu-metal, cities, etc.
