    My weird coworker did this with wrestling.

    Started watching wrestling from the 80s to understand “the story”. And I mean there are classic moments like Hulk Vs The Giant, but weird…

    I’ve been doing this with world history. Just got to the fall of 1908. Feeling really bad for this young guy Adolf, rejected from art school.

      But at least the Cubs won the World Series. As a fan, I think they’ll continue to win the World Series several times over the next few years.

    Makes me wonder how many watchable hours of NBA games there are.

      That season where he played with Bugs Bunny was weird. So many players lost their talent all of a sudden.

      Gotta get into the slow, more scientific feel to appreciate the pre 70s stuff. Still 100% recommend. Feels like science class mixed with a wonderful 50s movie.

    Not quite the same but very much the same feel…

    I started doing this with the X-men comics. The first 60 or so issues are very rough and I haven’t gotten through them yet. Apparently they did a 1-off around issue 63 where they reboot the series with a lot of the characters you’d expect and that’s where it starts being good but damn I don’t want to skip Jean Grey fainting while wondering if Scott is attracted to her and then getting captured one more time!
