I have no idea what this is.

So, this Gen-Xer doesn't know it.

Re: I have no idea what this is.

Yeah, it really isn't a GenX show. It is very much a millennial show. Maybe Zers don't know the difference between Xers and Mills. Gen X humor peaked long before this show came out.

It's a seriously weird and goofy animated cartoon. My ex loved it. It is...mildly amusing for like...ten minutes, then you're done.

Also Gen X, relieved to see it's not just me who doesn't know this.

I'd only vaguely heard of it.(Also Gen X)

When I think of peak Gen X humor, I think of, like, Clerks and South Park.

Millennial here. I liked it when I was in high school. I think the guys who made it must technically be Gen X.

Hey, you’re back! (Or maybe you’ve been back, and I’ve just missed the posts lol)

I think HR is a millennial thing.

(Anonymous) 2021-12-29 12:30 am (UTC)(link)
Made by Gen-Xers; core audience undoubtedly millenial.

I'd say early millennial, yeah. Because I'm right at the tail end of Gen X and I remember a lot of my slightly-younger friends being really into it at the time, so it was sort of inescapable. (And not terrible!) Almost sort of straddles the generational line, but definitely it's not straight Gen X.

(Anonymous) 2021-12-29 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not sure you can say early millennial, millennials started being primary audiences in the early nineties. Saved by the Bell was Millennial humor, so was Daria (although parent shows of both were late Xers, the latter's parent being a very late outlier).

[personal profile] pantswarrior 2021-12-29 12:47 am (UTC)(link)
Good point. I was definitely too old to have any interest in Saved by the Bell, at the very least. I didn't realize they were contemporaries.

(Anonymous) 2021-12-29 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
IMO Saved by the Bell is clearly Gen X. But my definition of the generations here differs from most peoples' - I don't think millenials start until 1983 or 1984.

(Anonymous) 2021-12-29 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
Millennials start being born on Jan 1st, 1980. I agree SBTB started as GenX-ish (it was a kiddiefied version of the Gen X's last great movie, Ferris Beuller's Day Off), especially in its Good Morning Miss Bliss iteration, but by the end of its run it was very Millennial. It is a transitional show.

[personal profile] hey_hey_hey 2021-12-29 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
The generation divides are firmly defined by the US Census and various polling groups, SBTB is firmly a Millennial show with a strong young Gen X fanbase. The original series was rerun for years and that unwatchable New Class shit aired until the late 90s/early 00s, that show is more Millennial nostalgia than Gen X.

(Anonymous) 2021-12-29 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
The US Census Bureau has their opinion, and that's fine.

The oldest millennials were still kids in the early 90s, so not the primary audience for anything aimed at people like 15 and up. When I think of Gen X media I think of stuff aimed at people who were older children/teens in the 80s and late-teens/young adults in the 90s. I was the one who mentioned Clerks and South Park upthread, and those were made by Gen X people and aimed at an audience of people the same age as them, give or take.

(Anonymous) 2021-12-29 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
that's okay, Gen X doesn't care and is used to being ignored. Whatever.

(Anonymous) 2021-12-29 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
Personally, I've always felt Homestar Runner was at the least a show Older Millennials liked the most. Or maybe I'm saying that because I'm one of those Older Millennials and Homestar was like one of the biggest things for us back in high school at the height of its peek.

(Anonymous) 2021-12-29 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
I'm an older Millennial and everyone I knew who was into that show was either my age or younger.

(Anonymous) 2021-12-29 05:43 am (UTC)(link)
COME BACK, ALLIE!!!

COME BACK, ALLIE'S SISTER!!!

(Anonymous) 2021-12-29 07:31 am (UTC)(link)
I’m tail end Gen X (77) and HR peaked in popularity when I was 28. That was the same time I was introduced to it by people ten years younger than me and to this day I cannot figure out why they laughed so hard.

(Anonymous) 2021-12-29 06:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Xennial here ('79) - never heard of this shit

(Anonymous) 2021-12-30 08:00 am (UTC)(link)
That’s honestly amazing considering how omnipresent it was.
