Yeah, her age came as a surprise to me, too, because I was pretty sure she was 43 *then*.

Yeah, that's the hole, for me - Fake Monica is just annoying and unpleasant.

Sorry, people who usually say this. I saw my advantage and I took it. "Why does Ross, the largest Friend, not simply eat the other five?" wasn't gonna ask itself.

Why does Ross, the largest Friend, not simply eat the other five?

Liked for the cheery "Thanks MANHATER!"

Yes, this. I would agree with the argument that society isn't getting *more* tolerant quickly enough, but it's insane to argue that we're moving *backward*. I live in gentle Canada, and there were no out gay kids at my high school, because they would have been beaten into comas. Ten years ago. Ten years later? The…

Would you say that it's worth rewatching "Ellen" just to see whether my recollections are right? 'Cause I'll do it.

On a non-insulting-the-reviewers note: I'm glad that "'Ellen' went downhill after she came out and that became the whole show" is actually a thing that other people think happened and that I wasn't just a homophobic asshole teenager in the late '90s.

Wait, did I read that right - was the legendary SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMS 11 in 1997? That's…horrifying. To the degree that I can tolerate him (that is, just barely), it's because I'm picturing a 90-year-old man. Anyone younger (say, an 89-year-old man) should be a little more with it. But, then, this…

Also, no need for you to refer to yourself as "(my) Uncle Phil". Even if you meet the qualifications of being completely humourless (check!) and weighing 400 pounds (unconfirmed, but I wouldn't be surprised), I do not meet the qualifications of being the Fresh Prince.

Chris Savage: I'm a Canadian liberal, but I'm going to donate $500 to the Michigan Republican Party just because your answer to this letter annoyed me so much.

Let ME be a part of this!

@avclub-04d524031f29c89d78cae864bd6f0de7:disqus Well, that's likelier than anyone calling up any Devo video on purpose, that's for sure.

@avclub-63c17d596f401acb520efe4a2a7a01ee:disqus , per The Lovin' Spoonful's "(What A Day For A) Daydream", I'd certainly like to bury my face in somebody's new-mowed lawn. But probably not yours, unless "David" is a girl name these days.

Looks like bad news for the…Impson family!

I haven't seen the episode in far too long (damn local affiliates, not running any pre-2009 episodes), but if I recall correctly, that's another brilliant part of the bit. He's called "Ben" on the title card and when the announcer first refers to him, but then the announcer says, "Here's your host…"Gentle"…Ben."…

"Who thought it would be a good idea to use a grizzly bear as a chat show host?"
 Anyone who doesn't think that's a great idea can go to hell.

These are great Bumblebee Man moments, but they come nowhere close to "no noise…suggests no bees!" or "The bee bit my bottom! Now my bottom's big!"

I've always wondered if Gentle Ben was supposed to be based on the kids' books/show from before my time (I gather it was supposed to be Lassie except with a bear instead of a dog) or if they just stole the name.

Maybe you all are homosexuals too!
