Hmm, the same Beat song in KBCO's '83 set shows up in Dave's '82 set.  Who is right?

Movie quiz:  Can you name all three voices heard in that clip from Fast Times At Ridgemont High?

Heyyyyy, you didn't tell us they're be a quiz!  If I'd known, I woulda paid attention.  As it is, I can only tell you about Sean Penn and My Favorite Martian, I mean Ray Walston.  I'd say there's an outside chance that it was Judge Reinhold since he showed up in a bunch of small roles before he was famous.

BOS Spicoli and Mr Hand. (not to be confused with Mr Hat and Mr Twig.)

I broke the dam.


Another great ep, as was the Drawn Together premiere.  Not sure where they're going this season, but it looks totally over-the-top from the coming attractions.

Have you seen The Colbert Report?

When I worked at ABC in the '80s it became a running joke that famous people either died or were shot on my day off:

You were like the Jessica Fletcher of ABC NY!

I'm BOSing Billy Idol and I don't wanna hear any back-talk....
nakes? On my plane?

You can't always get what you want.  I think this one is stinky.

Not yet. I hate to say this- but it's on past my T-F night bedtime.

I do enjoy hearing him do voices on Harvey Birdman, though.

Reinhold was in Fast Times, but I don't think he was Pizza Guy.

In this set, anything is fair game. Worlds Away is looking stronger to me, since I asked Dave if Peter Gabriel would be popping up today too (Security was '82) and he said nope.

Btw, Dancing With Myself was one of the many covers that Green Day whipped out last week. Review is still TK, I promise.

He was pretty much the main character.

It's FRENCH... bitch! And it's repeated at 8:30 the following nite.  It's VERY funny, but parodying Bill O'Reilly (who was a guest on the Daily Show Tues nite, how's that for synergy?) is kinda limiting, I don't know how far they can go with it before it gets repetetive.

2 out of 3, but Judge Reinhold, although he's one of the classmates called up (Hamilton!) to eat Spicoli's pizza, didn't speak.  Who was the pizza guy?

I've been wanting to catch it, but I've got the same problem as Beej--by 11:30 I'm usually semiconscious at best. But I've got a vested interest as a guy who wrote digital camera and video-game reviews for us jumped ship a month or so back to go to work as a writer for Colbert. He's hilarious, so I have high hopes for the show itself.

Damn.  Of course he was.  What am I thinking?
EDIT:  so technically, he did have a small part in that scene.  So I'm not a total idiot.

Yay!  A Flock Of Seagulls "Space Age Love Song".  Now that says 80's for me.

BOS Crock O'Seigals. This always flashes me back to when one of the suburban NY rock stations (WLIR) switched to a New Wave format that summer -- and they played this LP to death.
