I will always be grateful to see Salma Hayek's ample cleavage.

Not to be the "correction guy", but he said "Not a lot of people watched us," which works even better for the series. Though I'll never understand how these shows seem to be popular but don't get the ratings, and yet stay on the air.

And Eliza was black, so she's obviously a descendant of Liz's little Tracy. (I'm forgetting the kid's similar name.)

That snow globe thing was a very quick reference to the St. Elsewhere finale, then switched gears to show that's not what they're suggesting.

I'm sorry, what should we be watching? TV for poor Chinese people by poor Puerto Ricans?

So, you don't want to go to a Super Bowl party for the party, but you like the commercials because football is dull.

I actually like both versions, but I think the original seemed classier, and didn't pound you over the head with the idea the show's a comedy.

You could also probably devote an entire article to the opening sequences of Saturday Night Live over the last 35 years or so. In fact, their current season seems to have ditched the theme of last several years before it of the cast running around New York city late at night.

I do think that there was a simple, bares bones charm to the original opening — and the show in general — that's lost to the more detailed and precise no-doubt computer enhanced animation. Maybe it sounds like an old man complaining, but the "cheaper" look to the show was kind of part of the attraction earlier.…

I think someone else mentioned this already, but Deep Space Nine is a great example. The original just basically showed the station on its own, with just a couple of those big-shuttle Runabouts floating around. But while the music was nice, it was also a little slower and maybe more serious at first.

I never saw that until recently, either. I think for decades of reruns they just used the "theme song" opening on all seasons' episodes. Though I think now that Boomerang (or whatever channel now airs it) shows the original openings.

It's interesting to see a sitcom have a character come so close to cheating before stopping himself. Some writers / producers would be afraid to do that fearing people will turn on the lead character. I think they get away with it by not just making her the hottie at the office. They actually do make her and Homer…

Mmm… Michelle Pfieffer.

Wow, that Simpsons clip is so amazingly high quality!

So, you equate adoption to buying children?

I forgot to add that I think I did hear that ABC got fined by the FCC for that scene.

I'm a little late to the party here, and am too lazy to review all comments… But it's amazing to me that NYPD Blue was allowed to do things that network TV now would never do. The partial nudity, the language. A lot of what they ended up having on the show was close to what something like an FX series does. By the…

I'd like to make one little revision here. With all the current political implications of the word "conservative," I think it fits Hank better to call him "traditional".

Have we even seen Bob's or Linda's parents? TV shows usually can't help themselves to add the parents of characters in.

Funnier kids, maybe, but Bobby Hill is very impressionable. I think he and Gene would get along famously.
