Didn't we see Gretchen's visage on Late Night w/ Conan when they did the "if they mated" bit with John Malcovich and Hillary Swank?

1972!

Does anyone else think Seth Aaron would make a good stand-in for Robert Pollard?

Robot Grinch?
To these rheumy old eyes, Mila looks like The Grinch.

GastrognomeTM is the perfect nickname for Kevin! Well done! I like Tweedledee and Tweedledum V. as well - we've been referring to the V. brothers all season as "Meth" (Michael) and "The Affectless Serial Killer" (Bryan)

American Water by the Silver Jews - played in it's entirety, especially anytime between dusk and dawn.

Great Episode
and it was good to see ol' Chelcie Ross behind the bar. . .

Tab is a diet cola that was popular during the 70s, although I'm pretty sure it remains in production. I've never tasted any, but my grandparents always had plenty of Tab in their fridge, along with Fresca. Any Fresca love out there?

RIP Mrs. Slocombe.

I rushed out to buy the "You Never Know" 7 inch on Vinyl Saturday and felt somewhat let down after giving it a spin. I agree the song is fun, but parts of it reminded me of the sing-songy sections of "Everyday People" by Sly and the Family Stone. Oh well, different strokes. . .

Yes, Father Amco! I haven't seen him around in a while- I wonder if the evil insurance cartel guys finally rubbed him out?

Ricin Beans hit the nail on the head with the Thunderdome reference. For a series that generally gets all the details right, I felt the drug house was a slight misstep - disturbing, yes, but just a bit too fantastical and heavy-handed. In my former career, I saw the real thing on many occasions - last night's

I was thinking the exact thing same thing, Bender!

I thought the casting for drug house scene was just a bit over the top, with the above-mentioned ghoul / The Hills Have Eyes guy, as well as the tattooed face guy and his body modification cohort. . .

"You'll sleep like a baby. . .on a Superior Waterbed!"

I had completely forgotten about those Soundwaves commercials - they always featured that same random woman in a bikini. I wonder what her story was. . .

For me, it's between Thunderbolt Transmissions and Colonial House Apartments. Anyone else remember that suave swinger Michael Pollack? The best part was at the end when the buxom lass sprung from the depths of the Colonial House pool holding a king-sized 1980s VCR over her head. I think a free VCR was one of the

After Mothership Connection / Funkentelechy / One Nation / Maggot Brain have been digested, America Eats Its Young is most definitely a worthwhile purchase. I believe that "Loose Booty" is on that one. Westbound has a single disc Funkadelic comp named "Finest" that's an inexpensive gateway into the Funkadelic

Well played, Mr. Sinatra. RIP Bruno Kirby. . .
