I agree. Even if the women know about the series and perhaps have seen the movies, when the show was on and popular, they would have been looking at it through very different eyes. The show was on between 1998 and 2004. I really think that the typical 17-19 year old PNM is not going to "get" the cultural references. I sometimes have conversations with my 18-year old niece and sometimes forget that something I'm talking about was way before her time.
You sound really attached to the idea. What do others in the chapter think? I don't know how you choose themes, but I think that getting a lot of feedback from the chapter would help a lot. Honestly, you don't want to be that *one chapter* that did some outdated tv show that was on when most of the PNMs were in preschool.

We aren't going to focus on any "inside joke" kind of things except for their personalities because each four girls represent the four points in ADPi: sisterhood, scholarship, sorority, and self.

But would any of them really know what "a Carrie" is? heck, I was an adult at the time and I couldn't name them all without some serious thought.
