Unfortunately the ratings will never reach zero but as long as they are trending down I am happy.

On a side note I was watching one of those memorial videos on YouTube, one that was listing which celebrity died in 2020. Part way through it I realized I did not recognize most of the “celebrities”. Sure, I recognized the ones I grew up with but any who became famous since around 1990 I just did not know.

I wonder if others have had the same experience.

My wife and I have that same sort of experience when we watch Jeopardy. If the category is about pop culture, it is almost always recent stuff and we usually don't know any of the correct responses. They are getting more and more recent because the younger contestants frequently have not even seen a black and white movie. If the category is about rap/hip-hop, I don't even guess.
