Do you think younger generations will enjoy Futurama (both new/upcoming episodes and older content)? (lemmy.world)

I don't know about you all, but I consider myself to belong in the GenX population. Most of my younger coworkers have maybe heard about Futurama but have never seen it. So many of the references and jokes relate to older pop culture. I am hoping some of the new episodes will be relatable to GenZ and beyond. What are your thoughts?

With only a couple of channels on broadcast TV, I only had so many choices. I imagine availability on popular streaming services will have the potential of similar effects, but somewhat less.

Damn, I loved MASH. It's been awhile since I've seen it.

with streaming of music, movies and shows everything is going to be more spread out I think, I think no one will ever be as popular as someone like beethoven for example since he was popular in a smaller pool, as we go along other artists can get super popular but for a shorter amount of time, as we go artists will only be popular in smaller groups for shorter amount of time as there is just so much more music now a days, I think with streaming it will be the same with films and shows, theres just so much
