That is so not true! Either you are not yet an adult, or you are an adult of a different age. The entire last season was such an hommage to the 80's! Perhaps anyone growing up in the 90's or 00's are too young to pick up the humor. For instance, they spoofed films - scene for scene! - like The Goonies ("Booty Scooty") and The Breakfast Club ("Hey You, Don't Forget About Me In Your Memory"). They spoofed classic shows like Gilligan's Island (The 5 part Island series) and Scooby Doo ("The Cruel Giggling Ghoul"). They even mocked the classic games like Dungeons and Dragons ("Riding the Dragon") and the edutainment game we all played and grew up with in school, The Oregon Trail ("Oregon Trail"). I could go on and on!!! I watch the show and think the EXACT OPPOSITE of you - that this show isn't written for children, but rather for all of the writers who must be in the late 30's early 40's or for the parents of the children watching the show. The show is much more entertaining to me as an adult to my son. But we still both watch it together!
