Yeah, but it’s not common enough anymore to be so in your face, it looks like what it is a tv show made back in the day, reflecting the cultural zeitgeist.
People are still struggling with the same issues now, but not to the same degree, we have made a lot of progress, and it just won’t hit the same.
I miss the x-files, but people who didn’t trust the government or thought their might be shady coverups were anti-American and so it lost its popular appeal
Thanks for explaining. In a loose way we’re saying something similar - All In the Family doesn’t work anymore as a show. I think it absolutely highlighted the friction between conservative parents and their more progressive kids, but that friction hasn’t been resolved and it’s rubbed open a nasty national wound. And ain’t nobody living thru an apocalypse gonna watch a show about the end of the world.
Did you watch it? Archie is not portrayed as a role model 🙄
