★ ★ ★ see the first part here ★ ★ ★

My mom supervised what I was watching on television at the time so I didn't get to watch what everyone else was watching. Those times when my mom wasn't in the room with me, I watched some of the shows people kept mentioning to me at school. I was that kid that didn't know how to talk about why I haven't seen this or why I haven't heard of that. Anyway, so when I seized the opportunity of being unsupervised, I ended up not understanding much of what was going on these TV shows. I said to myself, "Oh, well. I guess I'll have to wait until I grow up." I've spent most of 5th through the 8th grade being sad and left out. I was only able to understand like one show. Since then, I've revisited some of these shows. It made me understand why my mom restricted my TV viewings and why I didn't understand much of anything. One thing still bothers me to this day: How did my classmates manage to understand what was going on?

  • ✨ = The only TV show I ever understood on this list as a child.
  • ☁ = I understood some things, but I stopped watching and told myself, "I'll wait until I grow up."
  • ✄ = I was completely and utterly lost.
  • ϟ = It was too scary for me at the time OR a bit too mature for me but I kept on watching anyway because it was exciting
  • ⭐ = Revisited as an adult
  • ✘ = will not revisit
  • ¿ = maybe revisit

✎ I'm also including shows that aired when I was a teenager.
