Does this hold up?
Loved it originally, but I keep thinking about rewatching the series, and I'm not sure why that seems off putting. How is this for a second round rewatch?
shareEven better then again I've watched it like 5 times so far and every time you notice something new.i usually started watching from the 3rd season on but last time I rewatched the whole series and I forgot how great the 1st 2 seasons were
shareDo you think watching BCS first would add any additional insight?
shareNo I liked BCS but not nearly as much as BB
shareIn another 20 years it will be as cringe-inducing as "Miami Vice," "Magnum P.I." and '80s TV in general is to people today.
TV doesn't last. Neither does cinema. Books and music don't age well either .... but they age a hell of a lot better than movies and TV. I think that has to do with the fact that books and music leave a lot more to the imagination. TV and movies try to visualize what books and music know shouldn't be visualized.
"BB," in another 20 years, will be worse than the original "Dallas."
But, it will be a gold mine of unintentional hilarity.

Hmmm... this is your opinion and I (like most people I know) disagree with it (among the people I know, some disagree for one or two arts ).
While I might agree that tv series tend to not age very well, I totally disagree for the rest, especially music.
I watched something like thousands of movies and if I look at my top 50, there might be 10 movies max which were made after 2000 and most of them were made before 1990.
I agree. The good stuff ages perfectly well.
Twilight Zone, Dragnet, Alfred Hitchcock Presents are all still solid shows IMO.
The Train(1964) is probably my favorite film if I was forced to pick one.
I like tons of old music, too. E.g. Patti Page, Carole King, Frank Sinatra, Cab Calloway, Buddy Holly, Bennie Goodman, most of the soundtrack for Oh Brother Where Art Thou?, etc...
Especially movies. The Golden Age of cinema was the best. I can watch those movies from the 20's, 30's. and 40's all day long. Way better than those Marvel movies.
