I enjoyed it enough when I was a kid, and it's a fine show. I like gentle kids programming more than obnoxious shit that kids watch on Youtube or whatever. But yeah, a few years back it sort of felt like suddenly everyone was talking about him again and how "important" he was to them. Like in that weird, infantile, nostalgic lib sort of way that always irritates me.
A lot of the nostalgia waves occur in response to when Fox News or someone adjacent blames him for raising a nation of 'cowards' or 'weaklings' or whatever toxic slur they use at the time.
That makes sense actually, yeah.
