Power of nostalgia

Unlike most people here, I'm no fan. I don't collect anything, I don't watch it as often as possible, ....
When my youngest siblings watch tv and I am in the living room, I usually read a book. Books I really like. And what I like is Stephen King, and Anne Rice, ... But when this show starts and it's one of my favorite episodes, my concentration always strays away from what I read (or do or whatever). I can't say this is the kind of series I watch nor that I am the true audience of it. And I actually am no fan.
It's just, beside the fact that unlike many tv shows I watched then Aladdin had some depth, it's just those happy memories. It's like Aladdin and Jasmin are old friends and we now went different ways. It's like the series has set it's mark somewhere in my heart, deeper than anything I do and like now. I know that it's silly, but I sometimes think it's the way convertists and ex-religious must feel about the religion they once grow up with. Oh, and although that's just as silly, some lines are actually funny. I dunno, perhaps it's just weird.
I wish I could simply say "those darn children's cartoons, I hope they grow out of it soon" without lying- like my parents do, but I just can't. Though they, in turn, sometimes can't about some old comics.
I wish I could simply say "I maybe older than the targeted audience but I so love this show" without lying but this wouldn't be possible either.
The reason I feel this way about the show is simply not one of the reasons I have liked it as a child, but the reason I feel this way is that I liked it (for a reason- there were shows I watched, shows I didn't watched and shows I watched in the morning and played about all day) and all those happy memories.
Anyone else feel this way? Am I alone? Am I silly?


I`m not talking to myself- myself just won`t stop talking to I!
