I understand that this song was intended to be funny, but it depresses me every time. WARNING! If you are a 80s or 90s kid who is currently going through depression, this isn't really something you should be watching. It definitely will cause you to miss the good old days, if you know what I mean. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0ygjD04vyU The ending where the message pops up that reads, "INSERT CHILDHOOD HERE!" makes me tear up every time because it's very true. So many people abandon all of their childhood favorites when they grow up and only enjoy watching movies/playing games that are "hip" and "edgy". That is why I love Robot Chicken so much because the writers for that show have shown me that there are plenty of adults out there who haven't let go of their past memories. Robot Chicken is a show about having a passion for nostalgia as the writers/voice actors have clearly stated over time. I find it refreshing to see a TV show made out of love for nostalgic favorites. There's nothing wrong with remembering things from your childhood. Just like Robot Chicken, this song has a great message to it about nostalgia. Even as an adult, sometimes it's okay to "turn on your NES and save the princess" or "team up with Megaman in the year 200X" after a long day of work.
