Exactly. I'm not saying it's a good thing or a bad thing, just that I think it is a thing. The virtually endless supply of media and current popular culture content almost by definition leaves little room or need to turn to pop culture material from the past. As a general rule, that is - Campyfan seems to be doing well in bucking that dynamic with his kids.
