So, why does this clip look like it was ripped from a VHS tape from 1987?

In my humble opinion the Titannica sketch is great in concept and execution up to the point where they do the Enter Sandman video parody, only because it was done so much better on Ben Stiller Show. But, then again, the BSS sketch didn't feature flailing sausage limbs, so it's a draw.
Well, fuck it, that's only one point.
A couple points
While I'm inclined to agree that "Dying Asshole in Vietnam" isn't so hot, I feel you should've at least mentioned one genuinely hilarious and very subtle point about that sketch: the obvious and incredibly bad "All Along the Watchtower" sound-alike music during the opening.
A seriously glaring omission from this list
Eiffel 65's "My Console," on which the Aut0-Tuned singer simply details a laundry list of his favorite PS1 games. Don't ask me why I know this song, but once you've heard that inhuman voice belt out "TEKKEN 3" with that much panache, you're never quite the same.
People didn't wanna hear songs about things that hadn't even been invented yet
They wanted songs about new inventions!
I love how,
for all the amazing animation on this show, they still animate people crying by just having a wavy line oscillate down their cheek. This show is all about details, which are always hilarious.
Heh heh, I said "oral"
When I was 14 I read a book called R.E.M.: An Oral History, which was basically a bunch of people who knew them back in Athens bitching about how R.E.M. got famous and they didn't. But anyway, what stuck with me was how they all described early 80s Athens, what with the parties and the awesome…
I typically have viewed Otis, Aretha and Ray as the trinity of greatest singers of all time, but yeah, Cooke makes a pretty convincing case.
If you're looking to get into the influential drum stylings of Nesbert "Stix" Hooper, I'd start with Crusaders 1.
I think it's fair to make the Stones/Beatles comparison, so long as you remember that that's not cut and dried either; see "Helter Skelter" vs. "Ruby Tuesday."

Ponder this: Rob Lowe is actually three years older than Louis.
The look at the end
I took it as her looking at him in an accusatory way, and him being like "What? I didn't do anything." Maybe I'm totally wrong though.
And have some of that new-fashioned peanut brittle! On me!
If this was an error, please god, don't ever change it. Kinda like when I caught the "Robocop starring Paul Weller" typo that should've remained etched in stone for all eternity.
I guess I must have just missed something
but where, exactly, has it officially been stated that this is the last season of the show? These reviews are the only thing I've seen indicate that. Nothing on Wikipedia or anything.
Personally, when I saw him I just thought John Ritter had come back from the dead.
I mean, granted they weren't exactly unknowns at that time, but really, none of them were like, the monolithic presences they are now (nor was Sandler yet the odious, inescapable purveyor of shit movies like Grown Ups.)
