Schmidt is my favorite character on this show.

Anyone else notice the large bearded man in the background when Schmidt wore the earrings?
I take all of my feelings out with dance
Special thanks to the people who worked so hard preparing the food, like Alex, Aidah, and Chris, and thanks to the parents who worked so hard making the costumes

Fred Savage... director?? Whaattt?!?
Who's the good cop/bad cop roles in the Levenhagen house?
Tucker and I are going on a rat shoot tonight. I'd invite you along, but you know what they say about rat shoots: two's company, three's cross-fire. Lowell.

That toilet seat came down hard on his head- they make better seats now.
What exactly is a "chitlin"?
I won a pie this week on the radio
Thanks to the stonecutters for making this show possible. Steve is just passing along the favor to other aspiring actors.
If I had millions I'd be like Guttenberg and buy: wine, crappy art, muscles and jheri curl.

Half of us are in costumes. The other half- great writers. Let's get to work!

My mother didn't use Carnation. Was I not loved??
everyone look @ my awesome new phone case.
I hate when Burns speaks directly to the camera, he's ripping off Bernie Mac
Aaron, it would be really helpful if you could keep those comment cards in order. They get posted online.
These episodes are in the public domain so if we showed only Burns & Allen episodes at TV Fest, we could charge admission.
Gracie Allen played the old one in Sex and the City.
Heather Graham is useless and I am confused. But not as confused as Heather Graham.
Anybody been to Portland? Tell us about it.
I totally thought the women group had men in it. Did not click.

The bagel product placement is shameless
Betty- I'm sorry I put you on my death list. I don't want you to die. I just want to beat Dave. Danyelle (heart drawn next to name)
instead of sitting around, talking in the kitchen every episode, they should be sitting around a hot tub
go from the center out
The next week psychic Jean Dixon was a guest star on Miami Vice
who would win in a fight, the Golden Girls or Designing women?
I do NOT miss shoulder pads.
I'm sorry Aidah missed the Nairobi reference.
What's the oldest celebrity you would do?
This episode reminds me of the classic film "Rashomon"
I don't know why Chevy Chase thinks this isn't funny
Best timeline episode ever!
by Moeller TV Festival standards, that was kind of a mindfuck
I'm a leg man, but I consider a woman's chest hair to be her sexiest body part. Lowell.
Why is this episode sponsored by Jamie in the program?
Aaron thinks I have a baking problem
Joel McHale thinks I'm sexy
How can I write comments when this is so hard to follow?
Andy Kauffman was the inter-gender wrestling champion of the world.
Never knew there was a feminine/masculine way to strike a match
Anytime I sneeze it is between 3 and 6 times.
This show was developed after the movie Taxi Driver, with Robert DeNiro, was a success at the box office, but ABC felt that a TV show about a psycho violent cab driver needed a comedic twist. Hence Taxi... ok that's total B.S. You just totally got Kaufmaned
I wish I played an instrument. It's so boring standing in the subway looking for drugs. (I drew these for you)-- (arrows drawn to abstract art in the corners of the index card)
There are 8 instances where Cleveland's house is destroyed. One w/out him & one by a giraffe, tank, hot air balloon, missile, Peter's car, and the Cleveland Show pilot, and most recently by a reverse cannonball
Cliff Bars are good. Garbage Pail Kids cards are back. Brian and I get some at Dollar Tree in Ankeny.
Brian likes old ladies. :)
Brian really has a foot in both the human world and the dog world.
I lived in Nantucket all of my life. As a child, I was once trapped in an icy lake for 5 hours. I was in an issue of Time magazine for it. Lowell.

I count 15. I feel like I've really moved up in the TV Fest world.
No favorites being played here. They're all submitted anonymously so I just post the ones that seemed to spark conversation at the festival, provided a needed chuckle, or went on to win a major national literary prize.
