Debating on doing a re-watch of this. I do remember there's an abundance of very dated 90s slang, so I either gotta gear up or go all in and embrace it.

This was an eyes-only broadcast!

I rewatched this recently, and yeah. You do kinda just have to accept it as a product of its time. The language is incredibly dated, but if you can get past that it mostly still holds up IMO.

Thanks for the 411 on that dealio. Gotta jet, but will prob jam to this after I finish The Expanse.

V.I.P. is also a good guilty pleasure from the same timeframe, and with similar mouthfeel.

That's one I don't think I've even heard of. Will have to check it out.

Well, if we're going for turn of the century guilty pleasures, let's go all in!

An exotic dancer is frozen in 2001 and unfrozen in 2525 by two female warriors fighting against robots that have taken over the world.

Is that an actual quote from the show? My mum used to watch it, but I never did.
