There’s a lot of landline / phone booth / message machine based jokes and story lines.
I don’t think 20 year olds will have an easy time picking up the show as they can’t relate to those problems.
I think Seinfeld is very much riding the nostalgia train now.
Mad men don’t assume any of its audience knew what the 60’s was like, so it has a chance of being more timeless.
- Philadelphia 4y agoWe all used to watch TV from the 50’s and 60’s in the 80’s and 90’s. You pick up on the context as you watch. A lot of situations are universal and timeless.
- anshumankmr 4y agoIn America and Europe, yes. Landlines are still being used elsewhere.
- oblio 4y agoWhat you're saying is: we're in agreement :-) And to the original topic, a good LotR series would be closer to "timeless".
