“The plethora of list TV shows that cover the post-punk/disco period seem to glory in a glib form of self-loathing, with even nostalgia for things we loved – and especially things that attempted to matter in some social or political way – filtered through a constant kitschifying dismissal of our own culture as something to be ridiculed … the shallow version of irony and cruel gossip that passes for pop cultural discourse in twenty-first-century Britain.”
