Hmm, Roger-Jane, Don-Teacher comparison is interesting. However I think Roger married someone who probably did challenge him and got tired of it and now has someone he doesn't have to think about, while Don does the opposite. That haven't really shown enough of Roger's wife to really pin down that impression, but

I'm kinda hoping Duck, Peggy, Joan, Sal, and maybe Pete form a Legion of Substitute heroes on Mad Men. Although, really I would just like everyone back at Sterling-Coo. Except for Duck, that guy's creepy.

There is no way "Fight for you Right to Party" was not a number one. that video was played 4 times an hour on MTV when I was an eighth grader. Yes, Nirvana was good but very one dimensional. No way are they the great american band. My vote goes to……..no one. There is no one great American band that had as big an

That sucks. I actually kind of liked Southland.

Me too Necron. It used to be on HBO constantly when I was a kid. Can't believe my parents let me watch that.

I'm annoyed with my generation's tendency to be born between 1965 and 1980

Necron, I don't really think he had to time to go into the whole dichotomy of Jefferson…go read a book if you want to know. And it's not just slavery.

classic bit from 20 years ago?! Blackface was ok in 1989 in Austrailia? wow, never been there, but i find that hard to believe.

Yeah, it didn't sound like negligence or malpractice, probably just a mistake during surgery that wouldn't have happened with a better surgeon. I doubt he lost his residency for one mistake, he must just have not been a good surgeon in general. Maybe smart, but with bad hands.

You know, I never thought about it, but I bet psychiatry was a pretty good gig back then. Unfortunately, now the problem is that many insurances refuse to pay for proper mental health care, so in order to break even most psychiatrists have to a patient every 5 minutes and leave therapy to ancillary personnel. The

Podiatry is a seperate discipline all together and podiatrists don't go to medical school. General practice I guess is kind of a fallback, as you only have to do one year of residency. When I was a resident 5 years ago, psychiatry was filled with foreign medical grads who were in psychiatry because that was the only

Psychiatry is currently the fall back position for people who can't get anything else. They mostly aren't competetive and usually can't fill the slots they have open. I think Greg was probably in a traditional pyramidal residency where each year only a certain number of people make it to the next. However, I don't

Samurai Showdown beats all. The graphics on MK were terrible and you had to push a button to block, which always bothered me.

I thought I was the only the only one who liked songs just because they had handclaps! Also the Chris Cornell's vocals from Jesus Christ Pose and Ritual are ear-shatteringly awesome. I always except someone glass's to break when he hits those high notes.

Of course Betty didn't want a boy. She treats her son with even more contempt than she treats her daughter and I seem to remember that she said "All boys are liars" in the first season when she was punishing Bobby. She hates pretty much all men because she feels none of them are trustworthy, her brother and father

The gary shandling show was on HBO or showtime, I think.

I never knew Frontline was off the air. They most show reruns of it here.

I really wish Tara would just go away. She's incredibly cute, but she is a bad, bad, cringe inducing, I'm embarassed for her, actress.

He was in alot of serious stuff in the '60s I think. Mostly soap opera type stuff.

Next of Kin, anyone? Liam Neeson and Patrick Swayze as hillbiliies out for vengence in the big city, a true forgotten classic.
