    I’m a late gen X. You aren’t wrong. Millenials were also largely ignored as well. Once they aged out of the Disney channel/Nickelodeon range. Traditional media was a wasteland for them. They went and built their own media on sites like YouTube. I’m not typical for a gen X. Most of my viewing is YouTube. I have access to Netflix HBO and Disney. That’s mostly for family. I haven’t watched anything on Netflix in years. I did recently watch the gun superman on HBO when I remembered it. But most of the time I’m watching LGR, Jan Beta, Adrian Black, Action Retro, Joe Scott, Veronica Explains, vivziepop, kurzgesagt, one of many many PBS channels. Not to mention long-form podcasts like behind the bastards, pod save America, et cetera, et cetera.

      Yeah I can’t remember too many built for millennials. I want to say How I met your Mother, but we were just a bit too young for that. I don’t know of any other sitcoms that were really for our age group growing up. It’s a trend, hollywood ignores the youth then is upset when they’re older that they don’t want to watch their stuff at all
