The AV Club revisits one of my childhood staples: Clarissa Explains It All. As I like to say about many things, it made me a weirder, and therefore better, person.
I also wouldn't want to see it again, for fear it was not as good as I remember. The same applies, to a slightly later version of myself (though not that much later), to Absolutely Fabulous. Amazon recently dropped the price on the Series 1 dvd, which I bought. It... does not hold up quite as well. At least not at the beginning. But it does remain the show from which I learned that British people are funnier than Americans.

that thy conscience may not be blunted by adjustment
to wrong causes."
