"The premiere […] centered on the inauguration of Richard Nixon. If the midseason finale […] doesn’t center on the moon landing, I will eat my shoe"

I hope the next documentary they make is about how the Earth is hollow, and we live on the inside, with the entire universe in the center and an infinity of rock on the outside. http://upload.wikimedia.org…

A whole book inspired by a brief passage in "Our Friends from Frolix 8"?
