Dark Side of the '90s (2021)

I admit I wasn’t well-informed and that there were surely other things going on. But this is an American 90s show. Not a lot of dark things happened in America in the 90s, or at least not as you say to my knowledge. I stand by my people’s rose coloured glasses being broken after 9/11. There was a lot that happened then but the internet wasn’t big enough and the news media wasn’t as big as they are so you just didn’t know about it like you can now. Also, this series doesn’t hold back. It’s Vice and their wrestling ones are pretty real, so if there were bigger, juicier issues, I’m sure they’d have done those instead.

A person could be easily fooled by the titles of these episodes who hasn’t watched full thru & think it’s solely about that, but they do a good job of weaving in the more darker things into the show.
First WTC & OKC bombings,Columbine. First Iraq conflict, Rodney King + LA riots just to name a few of the f’d up things that went on. I mean you wanna throw in finding out that the CIA put cocaine / crack into the streets as well it was the 80’s but the 90’s it came out I believe.

Enjoy the remaining episodes!
