Artificial nostalgia and 70's tv shows
I’m too young for it, but this tribute to Saturday morning live-action TV shows from the 1970’s fills me with me with artificial nostalgia. I think the false sense of familiarity comes from all the influence these shows have had on those slightly older than me. Take, for instance, the credit sequences from 1973’s Lidsville, which is obviously a source for the 1997 Mr. Show sketch, The Altered State of Drugachusetts.” Merlo even looks like Bob Odenkirk.
