Zeitgeist?
I am weary of watching tv shows (Criminal Minds, for one), where people are killed or degraded by serial killers.
This is a time of life, love, and joy; perhaps we are tired of bad news, mediocrity, and people with their faces stuck in their texting machines.
And irony. Irony has been hip since Letterman started his show back in '82 (or so). The smartass jaded pose, the nonchalant dryness, has grown tiresome.
Bring back the sincere, the earnest, the optimist. This is a shotgun thread, I know, but something is going on in the collective unconscious. For the better, I think.
