So, apparently younger generations don't have as much generational awareness, because they have access to sooo much more content.

I'm an elder Millenial, and I grew up watching what was on TV, and then whatever VHS/DVDs my parents deemed worthy of purchasing. So, the things I would watch would be newer movies and TV shows, of course, but then also older movies and cartoons, as well. I had a larger range of social references, just because I was plumbing from a shallower well. It seems like it shouldn't work that way, but new content is being made at a unprecedented rate. Not just major studios, and Streaming Services, but things like YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and Twitch. I might watch a Midnight movie from the 70's, because that was all that was on, but younger generations never need to. There's just an endless supply of content from whatever you're into at the moment.
