Gonna need another two decades for a show set in the 90s to be novel, it can only be novel once today's clothing wouldn't fit in there.
The pitch of "it's like today, only the phones and computers are larger, and the Internet is smaller" just isn't meaningful enough of a difference.
"Happy Days" initially aired about 15 years after the time in which it was set.
