5 nostalgic '90s sitcoms that are harder to watch today

It's the premiere of a new comedy that answers the question, what are friends for? Eleanor! What time is it? Nine o'clock. A.M. or P.M.? A.M. Central or Pacific? Eastern. Bizarre. Nostalgia can be a dangerous thing. Some 90s sitcoms still feel timeless, while others make you wonder, how did this ever get on TV? From outdated jokes to bizarre storylines and cringeworthy characters, these forgotten comedies haven't exactly aged like fine wine. Here are five nostalgic sitcoms that are much harder to watch today, All right, now what is that supposed to mean? Well, you know, without Sylvia, you wouldn't have gotten your job back. Wait, she had nothing to do with this. I pulled the con. I used her.

Unfortunately, its mean-spirited humor and controversial character portrayals overshadowed any clever ideas it might have had. I'm Herman's intellect. Without me, he couldn't hold his job, pay his rent, or tie his shoes. I'm Herman's sensitivity. Without me, he wouldn't feel tenderness, honesty, or love. Herman's head had a genuinely creative concept, exploring a man's inner thoughts through different personalities. Sadly, outdated gender stereotypes and early 90s humor keep it from feeling as clever today. It's so I'd miss an important meeting, thereby sending my entire company into ruin. Also, you wouldn't have to feel the pressure of having to follow in my footsteps. None of that is true. Really? I'm so disappointed in you. High Society borrowed heavily from Absolutely Fabulous, but lacked the fearless writing that made the original iconic. Instead of becoming a comedy classic, it quietly disappeared into television history. Which forgot 90s sitcom do you actually remember watching? Let us know in the comments.
