    Late gen Z, generally modern indie centric tastes; there might be a deeper genre name than that, but that’s what I can think of off the top of my head. Also has some 70s-90s stuff, including picking up a few of my favorite They Might Be Giants songs, mostly Lincoln-era stuff.

      Yes, this scans.

      Indie-alternative is in there but not much recent mainstream American pop.

      The music reinforces my concern that Millennials are trying to make this show for the younger Zs and Alphas, but they are really making it mostly for themselves.

      Which isn’t likely to be successful in the way they hope.

      One of our Zs is giving the show a try but it’s not a natural sell the way Lower Decks was for them or Discovery’s early seasons for another.
