It's not age, it's a willful hubris that anything that happened before the year you were born is not worth your time to be concerned with.

Despite their popularity, I don't really consider any of those things really to be.all that relevant or memorable.It's not age, it's a willful hubris that anything that happened before the year you were born is not worth your time to be concerned with.
I didn't even watch it so I was speaking generally. But I've heard people LITERALLY say they don't care about anything that happened before they were born.Despite their popularity, I don't really consider any of those things really to be.all that relevant or memorable.
Yeah not even MC Hammer, sorry to say. He was on top of the world for about 2 years, then dropped off the face of the music scene altogether. His style of hip-hop was killed off rather quickly by NWA and its spinoffs (Ice Cube, Easy E, Dr. Dre) and then Death Row records/ Snoop Dogg, and was mostly forgotten except for the occasional laugh (along with Vanilla Ice). It was kinda like the early 90s equivalent of Styx in the late 70s.
I honestly do not remember Kid N' Play.
SBTB and 90210 were geared almost exclusively towards the YA crowd, which is incredibly fickle and has little inter-generational staying power.
The vast majority of sitcoms were basically forgetable. There are certain exceptions - like the All In The Family, The Brady Bunch, The Cosby Show, Leave It To Beaver, which persisted re-runs. If anything, Seinfeld was probably the more relevant sitcom of the 90s if anyone knows anything.
If those people are older than about 15, then they are idiots. I don't think Bresee is one of those people though. I'm surprised he knew Martin Lawrence, he hasn't really been in anything major for some time. Same goes for Steve Urkel (Jaleel White)I didn't even watch it so I was speaking generally.

I probably shouldn't have included them in my "fortunate not to know" statement because they really don't come anywhere close to being the dumpster fire that "90210" and "Saved By the Bell" were. I just didn't relate to their humor, so that was overstating on my part. The fault is mine.I hear ya. I thought House Party was a trip though. So was Class Act, but I understand your point.
Oh gosh...that's painful to watch
