Despite being an '80s kid, I had no idea Troop Beverly Hills was that popular for some. I presume it was, given how accurate this show is with this kind of thing. I do remember it being on cable a lot.

Actually, I was with the kids watching something on one of the Disney channels and there was an ad for a TV movie that's he's in. That could be why he hasn't been around much.

I respect everyone having opinions about people, and they can be offended by what people say. But I get tired of the attitude, "I cannot even stand to be in this person's presence."

In reviewing this show, I would say that the first issue is whether or not anything was actually funny. It sounds like it wasn't…

I'm annoyed how the internet seems to think "someone decided to no longer air it" is the same as "banned".

I remember my grandmother seeing that ad for Honey I Shrunk the Kids with that kid almost being eaten. Though we explained to her that the kid doesn't actually get eaten, she still said, "It's awful. I don't want to see that." Though I guess the idea of it is kinda gross.

I don't understand why it's embarassing to be scared by the X-Files. It's a creepy, dark show. And I didn't realize the '90s was a cheesy TV era like some 1950s monster movie. I actually think it's even scarier now given that its aged a bit.

Great Pumpkin's ending isn't upbeat. It's angry, disappointed Linus yelling at everyone in the world, ranting about his imagined deity surely coming NEXT year.

I do actually follow that blog. And from what I've seen, I believe on its own it has actually helped boost some interest in some of the stranger old comic strips out there like Mary Worth.

WHOA that's a lot of comments. What the hell? Here's mine. First:
"The truth is that SNL, while informed by the sensibilities of its mostly young, white, and liberal creative talent, was hardly engaging in groundbreaking social satire."
Thanks for saying that. That's always been my answer to people complaining that SNL…

Just saying there are a lot of old strips churning away after decades that are barely funny at all that I'd rather see get the ax.

Didn't they actually visit Normandy and get all somber?

There's plenty of space for other strips out there. I don't mind Classic Peanuts always being in the paper. But those are actually still entertaining. Some of those "legacy strips" are just hanging around and are terrible. I mean, The Wizard of Id?

Don't dismiss a movie because of obnoxious, obvious marketing.

Well, just in case, I'm gonna skip it in case some gay guy gets offended and knocks me out.

As a straight man, can I just say I really hate people using the word "queer" as an acceptable term for gay people. It sounds too insulting and just makes me uncomfortable. Yes, I see that in some ways it's like black people using the N-word to kind of take away its power. But I still don't like it. Thank you for your…

It's really becoming a cliche in the whole genre. Hasn't pretty much every Mission: Impossible movie had the team going rogue after being accused of being traitors?

What time did this season's opening scene take place in? It was some Ronald Reagan movie, though I don't know if that would be before Ohanzee's childhood scene.

"…a state of perpetual hardiness"

The real issue here, though, is that the movies we're talking about all take place in Boston. Yes, there is definitely a certain attitude all around this entire state, but the movies usually stick to a specific part of Massachusetts.
