It’s why so many of us are returning to rewatch old TV shows from that period. In a time of tumultuousness, returning to a bygone era can provide comfort among all the instability. Crop tops, platform sandals, and scrunchies are all the rage, while musicians like Charli XCX, PinkPantheress, Rina Sawayama, and Beabadoobee are all referencing the decade’s sonic sandpit. Along with a reboot of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, now just titled Bel-Air and described as a more ‘dramatic analogue’ of the hit sitcom, the TV adaptation of ‘90s horror flick I Know What You Did Last Summer, and even HBO Max’s And Just Like That, a continuation of Sex and the City, throwbacks to the 1990s are everywhere. The ‘90s revival shows no signs of slowing down.
