A moment that is generally agreed to have had a significant influence on pop culture and everyday life. While the term was coined by Rose McGowan in context of the #MeToo movement, and is mostly associated with the K-pop community, the phenomenon is universal and a basic component of how culture works.
Real world events such as social/political movements, the election of a new U.S. President, major catastrophes and disasters, as well as entertainment such as movies, music and TV, can all function as cultural resets. Notable cultural resets in relatively recent memory include:
* The Beatles appearing on the Ed Sullivan show in 1964
* The Watergate scandal of 1974
* The release of Nevermind by Nirvana in 1991
* The September 11, 2001 attacks
* The election and inauguration of Barack Obama in 2009
* The COVID-19 pandemic

"The Nineties politically started with the fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9, 1989 and the Soviet Union dissolving on December 26, 1991, and ended with both the 2000 Presidential election which saw the victory of George W. Bush and the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 which left people so stupefied that it functioned as something of a cultural reset button." - TV Tropes' article on the 1990s

1) Something that should have been cancelled ages ago.

Mother: Did you learn more life lessons on 7th Heaven today, Timmy?
Timmy: Sorry, couldn't get past the horrible acting. But I did learn how to make the quirky faces that the actors use to reflect the serious yet light-hearted situations of the show.

Old show that is still in rotation on TV. It's a show that is created by Aaron Spelling, who thought it would be a good idea to make a show that tells people what kind of lifestyle to live: A very sheltered one. The father is a minister who has a drunk sister who attacked his kids. How, he could be a father and disown that bitch and not let her in the house, but he had to do the "christian" thing and forgive her. Of course, the kid whom she attacked forgave her as well, when anyone with common sense knows that in reality, the kid would be traumatized for living by being vicoiusly attacked by his own aunt.
A product of Aaron Spelling's decaying brain.

This is just one of the many examples of the blatent fakeness and stupidity that this show is saturated with. But, hey, I guess stupidity under a vale of morality is appealing to some people.

A really sappy family drama that's been on since '96.
In all honesty it really should get cancelled because the writers keep on recycling the same old stories each season.

Basic episode ending.
Eric: We're really disapointed in (Fill in kids name) we love you and we want you to know that we are here for you not matter what.
Annie: (Fill in kids name) your Father and I love you and we raised you to behave better than this now go on up stairs and we'll come up with a suitable grounding.
Kid: Thanks Mom and Dad I love you both too.

TV show that you either love or hate. The most common reasons it is watched are for family morals/values, because Barry Watson, David Gallagher, and/or George Stults are 'hot', because some comfort is found in watching the show, or for snark value.
The show is extremely highly rated, so it's obvious not that bad and has a good basic idea behind it.
