69. Watching 6Teen and Reliving our Canadian Childhoods
About this episode
Natasha and Jessica revisit the Canadian cartoon 6Teen, discussing their childhood memories and the show's impact.
This week on Episode Epiphanies, Natasha makes Jessica watch 6Teen, a Canadian cartoon about six teenagers who work at the mall. Jessica watched this show as a kid, so take a trip with us back to late-2000s nostalgia, a time when recording TV was not an option, we watched every episode out of order, and our biggest problem was the queer panic over a likely-bisexual Nicki. We discuss our vague memories of the show, our affection for the characters, and the series finale that still looms large in our minds. The answer to this one is kind of a giveaway but will Jessica buckle to the power of nostalgia? Or will she say goodbye to her old friends? You'll have to listen to find out.
