I'm not even old but I like watching older stuff. In my college, whenever I try to reference Seinfeld or IT Crowd nobody gets it.

Yeah, but the longer you have to wait to find someone who gets it the sweeter that moment is. I'll go a good decade not working with anyone who knows a damn thing about Starship Troopers, but when I do... That's a good, knee-slapping lunch we'll have before one of us quits to never be seen again.

Both of those hold up so well too. Just good comedy.

Don't say IT Crowd is old, ugh 💀

Older compared to the shit the new generation nowadays watches. These guys have never heard of shows like 3rd Rock From the Sun or Frasier

IT Crowd is niche. Casablanca is not niche.
