I'm to young for the first one but too old for the second one. I'm also used to society ignoring my generation so that's fine.

[–] andthenthreemore@startrek.website 40 points 10 months ago (2 children)

As a non American millennial I have no fucking clue what the second one is.

[–] Vespair@lemm.ee 7 points 10 months ago (2 children)

This. Our generation grew up on Reading Rainbow and the tail end of Mr. Rogers, not Blue's Clues. Blue's Clues is Gen Z fodder.

What? Weren't older millenials in their 20's when Blue's Clue's ended?

[–] ericisshort@lemmy.world 33 points 10 months ago (8 children)

I’m a millennial but too old to have ever watched Blue’s Clues, so I couldn’t give two shits when Steve left.

Also, it’s hilarious that this meme completely ignores Gen X.

[–] lobut@lemmy.ca 12 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (4 children)

I'm an older millenial that identifies closer to Gen X. I think mine would be ... Will Smith crying to Uncle Phil about his dad on Fresh Prince? That was pretty iconic. Wasn't a good bye or finale one though.

Seinfeld finale was kinda bleh. I skipped Roseanne, Friends and Frazier's finales to be honest and the fact no one references them never made me catch up. The Simpsons seemingly won't die. I'd say Futurama but like, it keeps coming back with declining quality. I guess I can't choose?

What would yours be?

[–] ericisshort@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

Steve wasn’t the finale of Blue’s Clues, so I don’t think it has to be a series finale. For me in the 90s, I can’t think of any tv shows that made me cry, but i can think of quite a few movies. Over all, My Girl is probably the only one that completely destroyed me emotionally.

I don’t know what the fuck any of this is. What does that make me?

[–] XTornado@lemmy.ml 18 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Not from USA. Well the last one I guess you could know as is from YouTube, that said I didn't know who the guy was or is either.

Honestly I haven't seen any of that I know the rest because of reddit mentioning them in another moments. Again not from the US.

[–] Vespair@lemm.ee 9 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I'm a millennial from the US and I've never seen even an episode of Blue's Clues.

Yeah, it's off. M.A.S.H. would be Gen X. Old Yeller got both Boomers and Gen X; I'm not sure which TV show would have gotten only Boomers.

*American

Still watched and liked MASH in my country in 90s as a kid (although not my choice) enough to introduce my wife to it a year ago and she enjoyed it too, having never heard of it. No clue what the other 2 things even are.

You're missing a generation, here's a couple clips you can do a screenshot for the next time this meme gets posted.

I‘m a millennial but too… old? Annoyed by it? to have watched blues clues other than by accident while playing Gameboy. According to Google it aired from 1996 to 2006 here, which means that I was ages 2 to 12. It was just too dumb for me. Matt Patt on the other hand, I watched it grow since its start in the golden era of YouTube, the. I stopped when the dark ages started at around 2017-ish. Now I‘m sad that I didn’t do anything good in my life until May of last year.

Was matpat big with zoomers? I thought he was more a millennial audience 🤔

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 30 points 10 months ago (4 children)

Nah his biggest audience was FNAF kids.

[–] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 19 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Sounds about right.

I believe FNAF getting mega-popular was the precise moment when the scales tipped for me and I officially became old. I looked at it, and I decided that it's just dumb and I can't comprehend why the kids these days are so into it. I mean, I know the real draw is watching streamers or whoever freak out at all the jump scares and act ridiculous. But that's a pastime that doesn't appeal to me in any form whatsoever. Just, get that kind of thing off my lawn.

I did watch a ton of Game Theories videos, though.

[–] guyinachair@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago

I wanna point out, recognizing something isn't for you doesn't make you old. Your refusal to recognize it as something someone else enjoys is where that boomer mentality comes in. That's just a theory, a BOOMER theory

Truly an internet staple

Only knew Film Theorists but didn't really like them… but I'm sorry for everyone who misses them, I can imagine that it's painful when someone you like stops producing such content.

[–] dangblingus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Millennial MASH fan here: it's a gut punch of a series finale. Amazing show.

[–] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 7 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

As a Gen Z, agreed.

I've seen just about every episode because of my dad who loves it and the series finale is absolutely amazing.
