Pictured: Millennials talking about the silly wizard power fantasy like it’s Shakespeare. Harry Potter truly is to Generation Y as Star Wars was to Generation X. It reminds them of a “better time” when they could remain ignorant of all the horrible things happening in the world (paid for by their tax money).
Agreed, I think a more modernish (I say ‘ish’ because it’s like over a decade old now) equivalent would be something like Gravity Falls which I hardly ever admit to liking because it’s Disney, but it’s a genuinely funny and well written show, same goes for Owl House, which got cancelled for being too gay.
