I never said that DIL would be remembered years from now. I said it was a massive hit that, at the moment, has cultural impact. You could argue the same thing about Miley Cyrus. Maybe her twerking antics and wrecking balls had massive popularity for "a few weeks" and it's now blown past.
Also, for your reference ...
