Yeah my FIL almost never talks about Vietnam either.  He's incredibly well adjusted, a really great man, but he has no desire to recount any of it.

Never seen La Femme Nikita (I assume you're talking about the 1990 movie, and not the late 90's TV series, which I did see a little bit.)

That actress was a SMOKE SHOW.

That may or may not have been a big part of the reason I watched.

Ok, definitely "may."

I don't recognize her or that show at all, she's definitely cute though.  I completely missed a ton of TV shows and movies in the late 90s.  I've realized that, other than music, my pop culture knowledge of the late 90s is significantly less, than the 20 years before that.

I was a young professional who was traveling about 80% of the time, dating, and then getting married.  So I wasn't around for much TV, and a lot fewer movies as well.  What little time I had for entertainment was almost exclusively focused on sports, or going to the lake.

I sort of did the same thing from about 2002-2020.  I worked rotating shift work during that time, with no TiVO or whatever we had in that era (DVR I suppose).  Also, I was newly married with young kids.  The last show I watched with some sort of regularity in that era was "Lost", and I only watched the first couple seasons before I gave up (sounds like I didn't miss much, it just got weird).  

There is a whole lot of TV that I just never saw in that era, but now I realize it was mainstay for millennials, and for old farts like me I probably wouldn't have watched anyways.  

We started streaming around the mid-2010's, and I really got into Breaking Bad, Mad Men, and GoT, and watched the last few seasons via streaming.  We could even stream stuff at work the last few years I was working shift.
