I tried watching ALF not too long ago. It didn't really hold up. It was just okay. The humor felt flat and one note. I grew up watching it and even the nostalgia vibe didn't keep me interested. Golden Girls on the other hand will still have me cracking up every episode.
Yes and still occasionally brought up. Sex and the city was a phenomenon. It's not mentioned much any more. The sopranos and 24, we're similarly huge but now ignored, whereas shows like lost and game of thrones that faded at their ends are still part of the discourse.
I watched Sex and the City a couple years ago and I quite liked it. Maybe it's a idealized view of big-city life, maybe it's unrelatable to me as a lesbian but like... women talking to women about sex and relationships? I had a good time with it.
Yes, I thoroughly enjoyed it at the time, and I’m a gay man, so again, not really relatable. It was frank and funny, but it became a soap opera about carries love life by the end, rather than the analysis and critique of sexual more and dating culture it started with.
