I never saw that, but I remember seeing "Oranges Aren't The Only Fruit" on the CBC.

And the Francie Brady Not a Bad Bastard Anymore Award goes to…
Great God, I think it's Francie Brady!
Morrissey
The first time I went to London I looked for the corner of Tench and Reardon, which was in a photo in the CD booklet of Bona Drag (I think). I found it in Wapping. The street signs were gone, and in their place someone had written "Morrissey, you owe us, you fat bastard!".
That was so awesome.
Mick Jagger - Let's Work
Terrible video for a bad song, so it doesn't really fit here, but it's worth a look if you haven't seen it since the 80s.
the FNL classics
Over the past couple weeks I've been rewatching the first three seasons, and one thing that never stops being funny is Coach Taylor calling Landry "Lance". I was glad to hear that again in tonight's episode.
I agree.
I think the crowd work is Pardo's show. He himself admits that he has very little actual material in hs act.
I bought the FotC radio shows on the strength of the first season of the TV show, and I was very disappointed. I liked the Neil Finn and Brian (the proto-Murray) bits, but little else.
@The Beast Rabin: You left out South Park references.
@Inspectah Deck: Very nice.
@Ace: I think Clay said "Bobby did two months for us". Opie did 5 years, if I remember correctly, so that's a huge slap in the face from Clay.
I think Basketball Diaries had more immediacy and a stronger voice than Forced Entries, which seemed overwritten by comparison.
And the award for best "9/11 Truth Movement" reference in a comment thread goes to Preparation Heche!
No Batt, but if I'm not wrong, Jill Henessey and her identical twin sister have small roles this.
Everett True is a real person. He wrote for Melody Maker in the UK before he got the Stranger gig. And he was involved in the grunge scene very early on. I could be remembering this wrongly, but I think I read that he introduced Kurt to Courtney. But anyway, the Bush stuff sounds like BS.
Look Who's Bursting Out Of Someone's Torso
@Dr Samuel Johnson: How about a "boswell"?
Yes, all the best to Ms. Tierney, who will always be New York's cutest radio reporter in my book.
