Remember when you could walk into work, school, literally anywhere, mention one TV show and everybody knew exactly what you were talking about?
Yeah. What happened to that?
This week, I’m getting into the rise and fall of the TV monoculture—the shows that basically had America in a chokehold and why I’m not sure that kind of TV exists anymore.
We’re going from Seinfeld, ER, Friends and Sex and the City to The Sopranos, Lost, The Office, Grey’s Anatomy, Game of Thrones, Succession, Tiger King and Squid Game. And before you yell at me about what I left off the list: good. That’s what the comments are for.
Because somewhere between cable disappearing, 900 streaming platforms showing up and algorithms deciding exactly what little corner of culture each of us belongs in, we stopped watching the same stuff.
There are more shows than ever. Probably more great shows than ever. But when was the last time you felt like EVERYBODY was watching the same thing?
Was Squid Game really the last one?
We’re getting into it.
PLUS: Keke Palmer can do no wrong, fandom is not a personality, and some of you need to stop demanding personal information from strangers on the internet.
