Is this more or less believable than 2 Live Crew being the 1990s first amendment freedom fighters?
The reason Family Guy gets shit on publicly more than Two And A Half Men here and most other places is that Family Guy has more that mention watching it. Obviously, Two And A Half Men has more viewers but those kind of people aren't posting on the average pop culture/television website.
The holistic healer scene
never felt like it went with Seinfeld. Tor was just too strange even for a one scene Seinfeld character. Most of his dialogue felt like they were taking the weirdest things someone had heard of a new age healer saying and threw it in there. I never felt it worked.
First Blood is a laughably bad film surrounding an interesting idea for a movie. I've enjoyed far more Stallone movies than he deserves but I can't defend First Blood beyond ironically enjoying it.
I was pretty much done with pop music around the time NOW 1 came out but couldn't avoid it due to being in college at the time. I'm still vaguely aware of some of the songs from this volume existing but I've only heard a few of them multiple times.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
David wearing those contact lenses and screaming during Coupon: The Movie is one of the highlights of the series. The dark sunglasses work as a portrayal of shameless, Hollywood types but little do you realize they are there for a much more hilarious reason.
Jeanne Trippelhorn was probably more famous then than now. She had just been in Basic Instinct, The Firm and Waterworld. You'd probably have more trouble getting modern audiences to recognize her than in the mid 1990s.
Jeepers Creepers is a sketch that I mildly enjoy but most of that is due to looking like absolutely nothing else on Mr. Show. I only mildly chuckle at it but I respect doing a parody of something that wasn't even remotely popular anymore.
What about squirrel Marge saying "Don't do that! Don't do that!" Admittedly, it's made funnier from Homer having absolutely no idea it's about Marge but it's still pretty hilarious.
The therapy scene was definitely the funniest thing I had ever seen at 10 years old. I now dread this episode because of it. I've seen it way too many times to actually enjoy it anymore and it overshadows the rest of the episode.
The commentaries for the first three seasons consist of "This is the first time X happens" and "'Is this the first time X appears?' 'No, he was in the last episode but you weren't here for that commentary.'"
I love the hell out of this show and will miss it like crazy
Let's face it with Kyle and Henry leaving for other projects, even if it did return for another season, how good would it be?
I'd be hard pressed to find a more influential episode of television from the 1990s that encapsulates 1990s television than The Chinese Restaurant. I'm sure someone will come along and prove me wrong.
It's rare for me to say Hollywood is finally doing something right. It's a weird feeling.
That video and music for Ewww Girl Ewww is so spot on. I can't help but laugh and TTOMO's return in season four.
Bob Odenkirk yelling is never not funny
but so is Bob Odenkirk being extremely enthusiastic with an accent. Examples, Super Pan salesman and FF Woodycooks.
I find it strange that everyone remembers Smithers being black in one episode but no one mentions Lou the cop being white the entire first season.
Homer's POV shot
This is so fantastic. You can read everything without actually seeing Homer at all. Maggie poking his eye and the subsequent animation is pretty great as well.
As I recall, Brooks left and they all laughed which basically ended the episode halfway through it. It amused me that they literally couldn't watch the full thing.
