[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oops, posted too soon--um, can someone explain the appeal of CBK now? I feel the story is sooo dated and regurgitated.[/quote] Eh, these things go in cycles. The story is "dated" but has nostalgic appeal. And Carolyn's specific 90s aesthetic feels fresh to people now, so that's part of it. The show is fun with great music, and between that and a lot of the cultural touchstones of the era, it's fun nostalgia for people who were in their teens and 20s at the time (which is why women in their 40s/50s are the target demo for the show). Also Carolyn and JFK Jr. were attractive and tragic, and that's always going to draw interest. It's like how Charles and Di is "sooo dated and regurgitated" but it keeps coming back. And unlike Diana, who was ultimately very open about her life and her thoughts and her struggles, Carolyn remains a bit of a cypher to people, which makes the idea of learning more about her more intriguing.[/quote]
