    I can confirm this. I am a huge fan of Mystery Science Theater 3000. I am Gen X. They were self-described “post-boomer(s).” I didn’t get some of the references to pop culture older than me, but often the delivery made it funny anyway. And people much younger than me who love the show feel the same way.

      Tbh one of the coolest parts to me is that I can learn about other old movies and stuff that they reference, and then when I rewatch the mst3k ep I get other jokes that didn’t hit for me watching the first time.
