Millennials

I've noted the force of millennial nostalgia many times, as the Interwebs constantly pour forth lists of favorite Nick game shows from the 1990s.

Apparently, others have also seen the trend. Or at least one other person at Daily Beast, a guy named Kevin Fallon, has noted it. Mr. Fallon intones that "millennial nostalgia is a powerful, witchy thing" as he comments on Nick's reboot of Double Dare, due June 25. ("Witchy" must be the p.c. version of "bitchy," which I assume is taboo for feminist reasons.) He also calls Marc Summers an "original gangsta," which seems to be a cool phrase in the opinion of Daily Beast persons. He does note accurately that Marc's presence on the show will stave off a riot by 30-something viewers.

He calls host Liza Koshy a "YouTube star," which looks like a contradiction in terms. Is there a form of celebrity lower in the pecking order than YouTube fame? Oh, maybe bloggers are even further down the pop culture food chain.
