I give you points as I, to this day, and as recently as a few days ago, wake up with this song in my head.

I remember Valerie Bertinelli’s character was obsessed with Elton John, Pat Harrington’s building super seemed to be in the wrong sitcom, McKenzie Phillips was distracted and Bonnie Franklin always seemed nonplussed-to-annoyed.

Years ago longer than most are in ages here, I was on a bus with about 30 other American tourists to Ephesus, the phenomenal ruins in Turkey. The guide was this wonderful Turkish woman who taught history at a university. Well it was a schlep to the ruins so she sang a couple of traditional Turkish folk songs and…

The A-Team. Sure it was great back in the 80s, but it has aged horribly and is barely watchable now. But that theme song is perfection in 1.5 minutes.

Thank you! I can’t believe I had to read through so much scorn before tapping some reason.

“The 4 Billionth Peg” New band name. Prog rock.

Let me know if you find my body because that will fuck up Easter something terrible

Not a lot has survived the kinjapocalypse, but I’m glad this joke has.

If Ben ever angrily disagrees with you tell him your mother’s name is also Chris and he’ll relent and even work with you.

When I was a little kitten, I remember a friend of mine told me that the Ultimate Warrior died because his arm bands cut off his blood circulation and that he was replaced by a look-alike. I like that ending to the story better.

The crowd reaction when he launches into the opening chords of that song on the four-disc Anthology is just wonderful. It so captures the way I feel every time that song comes on the radio.

I’m 35 and first saw him in 1999. I’ll tell you this, I’ve seen him 5 times and every one of those were the best show I’ve ever seen. He had the most exhilarating way of bringing people together and he loved us all as fans

Tom Petty is one of the all time greats.

There’s also the thing that Hank was pretty clearly fucked up mentally by his father, and his arc over the course of the show is about struggling with his programming when confronted by situations that call it into question.

Also, there’s nothing wrong with a satire tackling liberal overreach along with conservative…

Seriously, I’m less put-off by Tim Allen being conservative and more being put-off that he’s such an ungrateful crybaby. Two syndicated sitcoms to his name? He’s made in the shade. We should all be so lucky.

He LITERALLY compared being a conservative in Hollywood to being a Jew in the Third Reich. I don’t think perspective or empathy is his strong point.

Right? No job is permanent in the entertainment industry—he had a good six year run, and got a syndication deal (something not assured in Peak TV era). Maybe there were a couple of more years left before it was totally unprofitable, but most actors would kill to get “screwed over” the way he was here.

The show was on for SIX YEARS! That’s a terribly long time. It’s already syndicated on a number of a channels. ABC cancelled the show because they had beaten all the life they could have out of this dead horse. Stop playing the victim for a long running show coming to an end.

Isn’t the lesson of the past few years that there are always more fuckheads than you think?
