Original Title: Why are people obsessed with things not aging well or being outdated? I love looking back on shows that age poorly or had totally different social norms and seeing how different things were back then. Its like a portal to the past.
I never understood when people complain about a show being outdated or not aging well. Its ok, shows are made in their time and i love that we can watch a show or movie from any era and it reflects on what the world was like in that time. What was considered normal, what was talked about, what was relevant, etc. Its like a portal to the past that you can freely watch at any time. Not everything needs to be timeless.
