Sadly, I honestly think it's because we're too old. I think it's one of those things that you absolutely have to watch at exactly the right age to become obsessed with. (For me, it was Grease 2 at 14, which I still adore despite knowing how very not good it is.) Also, the chemistry between the two leads was ridiculously good, which kept my attention longer than it really should have.
