I like to think they named the character Phil already planning to use that joke years later when they killed the character off.

As a Canadian I was busy watching Degrassi Junior High, and later, Degrassi High.

Woof!

Whoa!

That exchange reminded me of the scene in the season 2 finale where Andrew and Pete try to get the safety deposit box from the world's oldest and slowest bank employee.

I suppose you even have a problem with the episode where Kramer is in blackface!

From what I remember when it was airing, each episode was 1 day.

Big Ben!

And the most unbelievable thing of all - a former butler eventually ran for Governor.

I read somewhere that they made a pilot for a spinoff of Cheers starring Harry the Hat but it was never picked up.

(silence) I don't know who that is.

That, and her obsession with Princess Diana.

"TURN IT OFF!"

You can tell that they didn't know what to do with the Windom Earle story when in the finale (or penultimate episode) they had Earle just knock over the chessboard and say "Forget about the chess game, I'm just going for the Black Lodge!" At that point I was saying "What was the point of that chess match then?"

"And yet I feel a great sadness … in my bosom."

Remember the pilot where ALF drank beer? The showrunners didn't realize that the show would be such a hit with kids; once they did they dropped that trait.

Downvoted for leaving off the exclamation point.

I think Bullock doesn't want the label changed since he doesn't want the job of Police Captain.
He probably hopes that Barnes could be cured and return to duty (maybe not after this episode, but up until his break-out from Arkham). If he removed that label and put up a CAPTAIN BULLOCK one it would mean he was…

I never knew how easy it was to accidentally cut one's self in half with a machete, but now I do!
