    Are those Magic Eye things still around? Twenty years ago, they were everywhere.

    There’s a lot of topical pop culture references like that in Season 6 that I can’t imagine modern audiences would understand at all (the Benedictine Monks album, Models Inc., Pogs, etc.)

      I don’t think those Magic Eye things are still around. If they are, they’re probably on eBay ready to be bought by hipsters who want to be ironic and people who want to relive their 1990s childhoods, not knowing or caring that you can do the same thing by watching Boomerang or going online to see if your childhood shows are available for downloading or streaming.

          Yeah. If they did it with 1980s nostalgia, then they can do it with 1990s nostalgia.

          Oh, whatever…
