The Toys That Made Us - Season 1
Description
Each episode examines a new franchise, examining what made each line popular. The first season explores the rise of Star Wars toys, the gendered popularity of Barbie dolls and He-Man, as well as GI Joe’s Cold War era revival. Perhaps the most surprising thing about The Toys That Made Us is how the series manages to make its niche subject matter interesting for a wider audience. It draws on interviews with everyone from collectors to sociologists (including, in the first episode, an interviewee who is both of these).
