Thanks to Gene Simmons, my memories of Shannon Tweed are forever tarnished.

I loved the animated graphics in that category. The only thing I can't understand is how they were able to broadcast something that was clearly created on a Commodore 64. Must be some fancy new software they developed.

It was depressing when none of the contestants had a clue about wagering strategy. For really smart people, Jeopardy! contestants can be pretty clueless.

The Dan Savage mention was unexpected.

It was an inappropriate offering of a sexual nature, to put it as nicely as I can.

Oh yeah…It's small on my screen and he looks like he has a beard…but, oh yeah…

However, he's the only one I can identify from that picture, so he has that going for him?

Matthew Gray Gubler sounds like something the troglodytes from Duck Dynasty would hunt.

What They Were Probably Promoting on Carson (21 May 1985):

Annie seemed like such a bright contestant. And then…

Brent: “I traveled from Newcastle to Bergen just to get there and that alone did not work well. I switched to land-based adventures.”

"The last shall be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few are chosen."
But I'm the first, so screw you guys.

i like that you like that this show is liked

I really feel like we need a run down of what is actually sourced and what is dramatic license. I had a similar question about Ito recessing when Clark was upset down thread.

"When I want to hear from you, I'll rattle my zipper. Now get the hell out of here, Bob!"

Sarah Paulson and Marcia Clark Got Drunk Together, and We’re Jealous

Ito had a small moment of saving grace. I'm not sure how much is fact and how much is fiction, but the show made it seem that he recessed for the day because he saw that she was upset. It almost made up for his remark about her appearance. Almost.

It's a kind of bizarre and true foreshadowing that the pseudo gloves were size small. Maybe the defense knew something that we would only find out months later. If the glove don't fit, you must acquit!

Hot take:
I know this might sound crazy, but hear me out. Maybe, just maybe, Marcia Clark should have listened to Chris Darden and not put Mark Fuhrman on the witness stand.

The palpable animosity the defense and the prosecution had for each other is being portrayed beautifully. Cochran sought to tweak and poke Clark and Darden at every turn, and Clark and Darden did their damndest to stave it off. Sadly, they never stood a chance.
