Director Mike Caron on Bringing “The Fairly OddParents: Fairly Odder” To Life
The first thing director Mike Caron and I talked about was nostalgia. I am a child of the ‘90s, raised on shows like “Rugrats,” “Even Stevens,” and, a bit later, “The Fairly OddParents.” He grew up obsessed with “Star Wars.” His daughters loved “iCarly” and “Victorious.” The media of our youth holds a singular place in our hearts. They are works that helped define our sense of humor or worldview and often feel like a long-lost friend from a simpler time, one you can reunite with using just a YouTube link or the click of a remote. It was a fitting start since Caron is now a professional in the nostalgia business.
