I grew up watching Nick at Nite, I know for a fact that I watched it much more than the cartoons of the day.

I couldn't count how many times I watched IDOJ, Lucy, Taxi, Get Smart, or Bewitched.

Yeah, Nick @ Nite and TvLand came around during a pivotal time for me. The early-mid 90's were a time of "I can't believe I'm done with High School, now I'm mooching off my parents" for me, at which point I was extremely depressed that I had "outgrown" all the shows I used to watch in reruns during the summer and snow days. Nick was a Godsend at the time. I have officially foresworn it now that that pig Rosanne Barr is on there. I think DVD sets of these shows is going to put a fork in these two networks over the long haul.

Back on topic: I hate, the song that won't get out of your head. My kids watch a show called The Big Comfy Couch, and there's a sequence in the beginning where the lead character is doing stretches on top of a picture of a clock, and the entire time they're playing this really addictive music and it's been in my head all day... Arrrrrrghhhhhhhh!!

A horrible song for a horrible show.

Thankfully mine are a little bit older now and while they still watch a lot of kids shows, Barney and Teletubbies are out. Now they're into super-heroes in a big way, which is cool because I can watch X-Men or Batman any day of the week...

You know what I do when I'm happy? I stick knives in myself and jump off a bridge. You should try it.

Like with Andy Kaufman. Only thing is, Andy Kaufman IS alive.

That's right. Tupac Shakur and Andy Kaufman and Elvis Presley and Adolf Hitler and everyone else who faked their death are all setting at a bar somewhere down in South America laughing their asses off at those of us who think they're dead.

If there's anyone out there that could really have faken his own death, that person is Andy Kaufman, so I really say there's a 50-50 chance of him being alive somewhere.

And Paul McCartney died back in the 60s.

“Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.” — Nazi Reich Marshal Hermann Goering

THE FIRST TIME THAT I SAW BOOH-BAH I THOUGHT THE SAME THING. ALL THEY NEED TO DO IS ADD SOME PINK FLOYD TO THE SHOW.

Yeah, but it's got to be Syd Barrett-era Pink Floyd. Anything else just wouldn't be right.

Princess Leia: I happen to like nice men.

I recomend the post-floyd work of Syd Barret, his 2 solo albums.

Thomas the Train is seriously some good stuff. Especially the ones narrated by George Carlin and Alec Baldwin.

I believe you're talking about Shining Time Station.
