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.
As a non American millennial I have no fucking clue what the second one is.
Blues Clues
See I still don’t know what that is but thanks for saying it anyway!
It was a kids TV show. I’m a millennial, and I saw it in the mornings occasionally, but never had any connection to it, so I’m with y’all
In a younger millennial and was still too old for the second one…
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.
Um, no? I was born in late 94 and was the prime audience for blue’s clues. I had so much blue’s clues merch as a tot. It was that and teletubbies. I would say the youngest millenials were probably a bit too young to have caught much of Mr Rogers (I didn’t) but that may be a case by case thing.
That said, I do feel a lil disconnected from the rest of the millenial generation in what I remember from the 90s—as it’s basically nothing—and I often have to teach my '91 spouse and his similarly-aged friends about tech and current slang, but I’m still slightly to old to roll with gen z lol. Being a cusp gen baby is weird.
Millennials are 1981 to 1996; you’re a very late millennial so it makes sense your experiences are more similar to Gen Z. I doubt many people only a couple years older than you watched Blue’s Clues.
Same
It was stupid to use a kids show as an example. That episode aired in 2002. Only a small slice of people born 1980 to 2000 would care.
The other examples had an audience with a much wider age range.
What? Weren’t older millenials in their 20’s when Blue’s Clue’s ended?
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.
Oh well, whatever, nevermind.
Not like this.
Gen what? Don’t invoke the wrath.
How do you know that his name is Steve if you never watched it?
He’s been a meme for over 20 years, and I’m a member of society.
And they were devastated by it.
And re-devestated (in an emotional way) when he told us he was proud of us!
I’m not gonna lie, that choked me up really good, I really needed that at the time.
I don’t know what the fuck any of this is. What does that make me?
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.
I’m a millennial from the US and I’ve never seen even an episode of Blue’s Clues.
It’s from Nickelodeon it seems so I guess you need to have the channel first and then watch it and watch it when they did it…
I mean where I am from the private cable tv wasn’t as common so it was easier for people to see most of the stuff as all was free over the air tv, as long as you had a tv and antenna that’s it.
On America it seems like it would be easier I guess for people not see certain things if they didn’t have cable or their didn’t have certain channel or similar.
As a young gen Xer the only reason I know about blues clues was my nieces.
I wish I could claim I wasn’t from the US because its embarrassing to live here right now, but I am. Never watched a single episode of blues clues, it was popular when I was in high school.
Gen X?
Gen x got MASH reruns and internalised the theme song “suicide is painless”
I woke up, read your comment and have the flippin’ song bouncing around in my head since.
We stopped crying. Except at funerals and over properly cooked steak.
Japanese?
わかりました、賢い人
Wow that is a terrible translation haha
And as usual Xers forgotten
Caise we never cry we’re in a state of constant disappointing.
I disagree. Transformers:The Movie
I forgot about that one, I was going to say when Kurt Cobaine died or the end of ET.
Gen X was too busy not giving a fuck to cry about anything.
Yeah, I used to wash MASH with my parents because one house TV’s and primetime. It was ok. I watched the finale, It was ok.
I was a hell of a lot sadder when the dropped Hogans Heroes from syndication.
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.
You’re on the tail end of Millennial, and it definitely sounds like you were the target age for Blues Clues. I’m right in the middle of the Millennial years and I was 9 when that show came out, so I only know it as that thing my friend’s little brother watched. I have more feelings about MatPat leaving, even if I stopped watching years ago. Point is, I don’t think this meme is very accurate.
Millennial is such a huge range anyway. In 1996 I was 12. There was no way I would have been watching Blue’s Clues.
Who?
He is a youtuber. He investigates and explains different topics, reviews games and trending social media.
That’s just a theory. /s
No, it’s all just a game
GEN-X THINKS YOU’RE ALL CRYBABIES
Wow, apparently I was right. Can’t even take a joke 😂
GenX, forgotten again
I was going to say I don’t really recognize any of them, although they’re vaguely familiar …. yes, forgotten again
The only reason I knew it was M.A.S.H. was the font/color.
In this case, I don’t feel too bad being missed. Keep your head down and stay out of the news :)
That said, I watched Theorists with my tween. Kinda sad seeing MP go, but not as sad as MP was.
I expect the channels will go tits up without his personality. The new hosts are pleasant but honestly unremarkable. The show was far less about the content and more of his performance. If you thought the idea was crap, you subliminally blamed it on him. There are plenty of other personalities out there doing what they’re doing and almost all of them go on unknown because they don’t have screen chemistry.
gen x is overlooked way too often, a ton of millennial media were made by gen x
Ummm… Et phone home?
*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.
Defo American. I don’t know any of them (Brit).
MASH was the most popular sitcom of the 1970s in North America. Surgeons at an Army hospital in the Korean War in the 50s running schemes and banging nurses to distract themselves from the horror of war.
Anything to do with mashed potatos?
Well, they did have a distillery in their tent, so maybe.
In 2002 I was a 15 year old millennial… I wasn’t watching Blue’s Clues
why not?
They were masturbating.
Millennial MASH fan here: it’s a gut punch of a series finale. Amazing show.
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.
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.
How fitting that he would steal his final act from another person
Omg I’m a boomer. Who are these people?
The first one is MASH
I know! Thats the only one I know and I’m barely 40 years old.
The 4077th salutes you MatPat
