Thus, I don't think there really is an "after my time", as everything is available at any time. It's just whether or not someone might think they are interested in it.

This is exactly how I feel. I'm only in my 30s but I love a lot of music from the 50s/60s because I caught some of it on the radio and liked it enough to start delving into it on my own. It's not as if media has an expiration date - that's the beauty of it. "After my time" means nothing in today's world where it's so easy to access anything you might want to check out.

Yeah, but a lot of how we discover media is through hype. If you weren't in the target market when the hype was big, then you're a lot less likely to have seen it.

You can always watch older stuff, but there is so much older stuff that what you watch is going to be a lot more individual. I mean, you mentioned music from the 50s/60s. I might mention music from the 30s/40s. Or I might mention blues, while you might mention rock.

And frankly, there are some shows that I can only watch now because of nostalgia. I don't think I'd ever get into them now if I was watching them fresh. I'm probably not going to start watching children's shows unless I've heard from adults who got into them as adults that they're good.
