“Cause and Effect” and “The Best of Both Worlds, Part II” are in the corner, about to throw hands

You’re conflating “Joe Millionaire” with “Who Wants to Marry a Multi-Millionaire?”, but it’s totally understandable: Rick Rockwell’s net worth was estimated at $2 million, making “multi-millionaire” technically correct but still wildly misleading.
During Roger Stern’s run on “Avengers,” readers were asked in the letters page if they wanted Sub-Mariner to join the team. I wrote in and said “yes.” A few months later, I and the other readers who’d written in got a letter from Stern in response, thanking us for voting, and announcing that Namor would join the team…
The B-52's “Love Shack” is one of those rare songs that I remember where I was and what I was doing the first time I heard it, and it’s entirely because when they get to the “Bang bang!” part, I assumed it was another song riffing on Neal Hefti’s “Batman” theme and turned up the car radio to hear it more clearly.…
One of my favorite moments at a movie theater was in 2010, when I was at the concession stand before “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1.” The teenager behind the counter asked me what movie I was going to see, and when I told him, he said, “You know it ends on a cliffhanger, right?” I wanted to respond with…

Bob Newhart’s always had your back:
I tried to explain “Sam & Cat” to my mom one time as “It’s a spinoff show with the two popular sidekicks from two unrelated shows.” When she didn’t quite get that, I said, “It’s like if they made a show where Niles Crane and Steve Urkel were buddy cops.”
I’d like to remind everyone that in the original “Secret Wars,” every hero dies. Heck, the Wasp died twice. (They all got better.)
The show ran for five seasons, beginning when I was a high school freshman and ending when I was in college. The combination of Billy Connolly and the feeling of “how the hell have these kids not graduated yet?” completely turned me off the last season.
“Will Smith as the genie in the lamp. As opposed to, you know, those other types of genies.”
Legitimately one of my favorite childhood jokes came out of that household:
