The show's sly conceit is that the good ol' days weren't as simple as they look when romanticized in fl and white, whether it was fear of nuclear Armageddon or a not-so-liberated mentality toward women and gays.
What the latest installments capture most deftly, however, is the sheer silliness of childhood conventions, perhaps most effectively in the second half-hour, where 12-year-old protagonist Oliver (Grant Rosenmeyer) realizes he'll be labeled for life if he allows a distasteful nickname to stick to him.
Meanwhile, the second-season debut, in which Oliver calls "dibs" on a comely exchange student (Maggie Grace), is full of all kinds of Cosby-esque banter about how some mythical kid broke those sacred rules years before.
