What's the word for something you didn't know you needed until you had it? Whatever that is, you have given it to me! This is an absurd, completely unnecessary — and genuinely impressive achievement. Thank you for your service!

I think dropping in at a different stage of that endless dumb war each night reinforced how dumb and endless it was. Also M*A*S*H ruled.

The channel that played it every night when I was a kid played them in random order. One night a Trapper, one night Charles, etc. I actually set up a playlist in my plex server when I ripped my DVDs to replicate that experience.

Absolutely. Too much MTM show and Albert Brooks in my veins to ever fully reject a Brooks organ.

I'm particularly fond of the Patty Duke. I've described this disc to many folks, and they rarely believe me until I play it for them. Then they usually want to hear the whole thing. It definitely punches above it's weight in both fealty to the themes, and fealty to the parody. But what a weird idea.

She would be a fun interview for an extremely niche podcast or publication. The intricacies of 80s pyramid clues resonated deeply with this budding language pedant.

Convy was also a guest on the first Murder She Wrote, although I’m pretty sure he played a murderer later. Beth Howland introduced the wedding song in Sondheim’s Company, and was married to Charles Kimbrough of Murphy Brown.

Mary’s slow collapse is such a simple piece of writing, that hinges on her performance, and our k owl edge of the characters. They all had such faith and confidence in each other. I only wish this wasn’t from the period when she had that weird matronly hairstyle (although here it fits).
