What? Weren't older millenials in their 20's when Blue's Clue's ended?
I’m a millennial but too old to have ever watched Blue’s Clues, so I couldn’t give two shits when Steve left.
Also, it’s hilarious that this meme completely ignores Gen X.
I'm an older millenial that identifies closer to Gen X. I think mine would be ... Will Smith crying to Uncle Phil about his dad on Fresh Prince? That was pretty iconic. Wasn't a good bye or finale one though.
Seinfeld finale was kinda bleh. I skipped Roseanne, Friends and Frazier's finales to be honest and the fact no one references them never made me catch up. The Simpsons seemingly won't die. I'd say Futurama but like, it keeps coming back with declining quality. I guess I can't choose?
What would yours be?
Steve wasn’t the finale of Blue’s Clues, so I don’t think it has to be a series finale. For me in the 90s, I can’t think of any tv shows that made me cry, but i can think of quite a few movies. Over all, My Girl is probably the only one that completely destroyed me emotionally.
I fell off from Friends and Frasier years before they ended, partially because I didn’t have time to watch tv at that point, but for Friends it was also because I just didn’t care anymore. Not sure whether I can really say I was representative of the Xennial demographic though. The finale of Roseanne, on the other hand, was the groaner of a punchline to the hack comedian’s joke that the final season was, so it certainly wasn’t iconic either.
That scene from Fresh Prince that you picked is a great one. I made another comment suggesting Atreyu trying to save Artax, and I suppose I should add the super dark finale of Dinosaurs. Otherwise I can’t think of much else; so many of the iconic characters I grew up watching wore out their welcomes because tv execs in the ‘90s somehow figured out how to suffocate the lightning they caught in a bottle.
Maybe the Cheers finale, in 1993
Two main things I remember about that finale. Cliff ending the conversation on shoes because their topic was about shoewear. Lastly, Sam saying to the incoming patron: "we're closed".
I loved Cheers.
I was well into middle school when blues clues came out and graduated highschool when it ended.
Same. Are you from 82, 83, or 84?
Oh well, whatever, nevermind.
Not like this.
How do you know that his name is Steve if you never watched it?
He’s been a meme for over 20 years, and I’m a member of society.
Gen what? Don't invoke the wrath.
And they were devastated by it.
And re-devestated (in an emotional way) when he told us he was proud of us!
I'm not gonna lie, that choked me up really good, I really needed that at the time.
