It was a cheery, optimistic time’s idea of dark and ominous
Seems almost campy now, in a Sontag failed-seriousness sense, but not quite. Just enough pathos to save it.
Kinda like a kid’s idea of a scary tale. You want to laugh but you don’t because the kid is scared.

In hindsight The Simpsons seems like the actual dark and ominous show of the 90s.

Fringe was the 2000's version, we still need the 2010's, unless you count True Detective but I think that's a different strain
