    2. @awl I feel like it's been popular for some time now, or at least it has been from my frame of reference.

      1. @awl @narwhal Wouldn't MST3K count? There were a couple of shows like that before it too.

      2. @thelastgherkin true. Maybe it just seems there's a resurgence because I've been enjoying the truly awful more lately.
