What shows have aged horribly for you? (poptalk.scrubbles.tech)

What shows have you grown out of, or has society grown out of? Were they popular in their time? Were they not so much? Why do you feel like they've aged? I'll leave mine below

As the kids say: it just hits different 🤷🏼‍♀️ Maybe I was just too young & naive to understand what it portraying was when it came to racism & sexism.

I never watched it originally, but having seen most of it later I just don't find it that funny. The show wasn't as clever as it thought it was.

I can still enjoy it, but there are definitely things in there that would not fly anymore. I try to take it in stride, that we should be happy that those sort of jokes aren't okay anymore, but I still cringe at some of them.
