Is "You're a lifesaver" out of date? I've heard "You're a lifesaver" many times in 80's movies. However, I've never heard that phrase in recent movies, TV show and real conversation. Isn't that so

Is "You're a lifesaver" out of date? I've heard "You're a lifesaver" many times in 80's movies. However, I've never heard that phrase in recent movies, TV show and real conversation. Isn't that so common anymore? I heard that in Stranger Things too.The show describes about 80s, right?

People still say it! It is more common to say "Thanks! You're the best" or "You're the best!" as a thank you to someone doing you a favor or doing something nice for you.
