They did this a lot in the 90’s too. Production companies love to ground an IP into the dust.
That explains why I'm so familiar with boomer shows and movies, despite being a millennial. There was a lot of old content and remakes on TV then.
When I was growing up I thought Gilligan's Island was a much bigger deal than it actually was.
Tbf back then I wasn't watching remakes or reboots (mostly, and I know they did make them, but..) I got familiar with those shows by watching the reruns themselves. And even as a kid who wasn't alive at those shows releases, they still held and in many cases still do hold their original magic. Ex: Golden Girls.
But I type that as my Caddyshack VHS rolls credits so maybe I'm the weirdo. Oh well, I'm alright, nobody worry 'bout me!
