NOTHING is ahead of its time. Everything is from its time. What happens is that when kids grow up, become adults, they think that the time when they were growing up were "different" and "good". Watching stuff which is against this belief makes them think "oh, this is ahead of its times". In reality, nothing is ahead of its times. EXACTLY the same things and thought process was going on when the pyramids of Giza were being built. When the code of Hammurabi was being written. Nothing is ahead of its times, the only thing is that it is a realization that "grown up life" in those times was similar to "grown up life" today. And by "kids" and "grown ups", I am referring to mental age, not physical age.

I noticed that the ratings for the woman in Red spiked at the very end when the audience saw her rejoice at the Yellow man's ratings dropping to Zero. The Audience was enjoying the feud between the reporters and treating National Journalism like a Drama.

"Duncan, could you tell us some ways that you think the economy is doing badly, again?" Laurlee Hickok won that grin towards the end proves she won.

That kanye joke is more appreciated today. I believe this was filmed around the time he took the mic from Taylor Swift so you would've been unpopular being associated with him.
