GenX, forgotten again

I was going to say I don’t really recognize any of them, although they’re vaguely familiar …. yes, forgotten again

The only reason I knew it was M.A.S.H. was the font/color.

In this case, I don't feel too bad being missed. Keep your head down and stay out of the news :)

That said, I watched Theorists with my tween. Kinda sad seeing MP go, but not as sad as MP was.

I expect the channels will go tits up without his personality. The new hosts are pleasant but honestly unremarkable. The show was far less about the content and more of his performance. If you thought the idea was crap, you subliminally blamed it on him. There are plenty of other personalities out there doing what they're doing and almost all of them go on unknown because they don't have screen chemistry.

gen x is overlooked way too often, a ton of millennial media were made by gen x
