I did not see it for so many years because it took FOREVER to get released on DVD, but watching it again was a breath of fresh air and I couldn't figure it out. Yes, part of it is childhood nostalgia, but that's only part of it. What I realized I loved so much watching them is despite the dated 90s fashions and trends, like the futuristic Mondo-burger pre-Backstreet outer space suits, was how REAL everybody looked. Look at this:

These could be the kids in anybody's neighborhood, they could be your next door neighbor, they are REAL, REALER than anybody you see today. Look at Monique,

That is just a natural, REAL beauty, not a Barbie doll, not a Pussycat doll, not a Bratz doll, just REAL, she's not all made up and gawdy and glittery and whatever else they do with the girls on Nickelodeon and Disney now, it's just a group of realistic looking teenagers, everybody looks real, like the Midnight Society in Are You Afraid of the Dark?, everybody's not perfect, they're not a clone of each other, they're just REAL. That's something you never see anymore sadly.
