People's History of the Moeller Television Festival (13th year)

The following are samples of wisdom dropped into the festival comment box last weekend. (All comments are anonymous, sic'd, and lacking context.)

Special thanks to Tim for coming from Peoria, IL. To Jamie for coming from Chicago. Congratulations to Megan for making her first festival

Does everybody know how Aidah and Chris' toilet seat works? Does anyone know how to fix a toilet?

Why do people always take a drink @ awkward moments? Do these moments make people thirsty?

Has everyone seen the trailer for Star Wars 7?

The account office was next to a betting service - is this smart?

How's the chili doing?

You read the cards just add to it

John Hamm's Cardinal hat is blocking the screen

Wow that sweater. Who does Heathcliff think he is? Dr. Hibbard from the Simpsons?

The Moeller TV Festival pushing the edge of controversy.

Denise would never go for a military man.

Chris had a very romantic wedding proposal

What's in the guacamole dip? It's delicious.

There are still 6-disc CD changers, you know?

What's in the pineapple- it's delicious? Who cut it like that?

I remember when this plant to the left of the TV used to be Chris' Christmas tree.

Rob, when are you going to love your woman 100%?

Even before this episode started I knew Lucy would "Have some explaining to do."

Aaron is my personal A.T.M. Aaron Thomas Moeller

Fred hated Ethel. When William Frawley died, she bought a restaurant a round of drinks.

Chaos can be expected when women work outside the home.

Unfortunately, Amanda Milligan was type cast as a chocolate dipper after this episode aired.

That is just like my marriage.

Do you call your husband, "sir", Alex? When are you going to love him 100%?

I don't get it. He never once told her to go to the moon.

Who the fuck is Ricky Margaret McBride?

Jennifer Aniston hated David Schwimmer. She bought everyone drinks when she heard Ross had died.

Aaron, could you explain why Alex needed to put this in Open Remote?

If your last name is Moeller I think you should have equal shares in the amount of shows watched

They got away with a lot on TV in those days.

Could be the amerretto, but I think I just watched a show about a man in a woman's body

Historic first screening episode

There's an episode when he jumps into the body of a chimp.

This is the worst episode of Mad Men I've ever seen.

I think there are two openings in the secretary pool for Lucy & Ethel.

When shows like this were on, you only needed 3 channels.

$12 didn't fill our tank on the way here, but $30 did! Gas is 15 cents cheaper here than Cedar Rapids

Scott Bakula is from St. Louis but he doesn't have a bobblehead yet.

They didn't ask about ebola

Did you see the enormous cell phone?

Do the new people want a tour of the Cardinals room? Before it goes away?

True statement. Everyone dies from something

I need coveralls, gloves, a mask, a special receptical and a dead spider grabber to kill a spider.

I had a cell phone customer this week who didn't have a thumb

This is what Brandon does when he goes to Las Vegas.

There's a Tarantino version of this.

The only thing that could add more tension to that episode would be the discovery of a bat in the hotel room

Peter Lorre is in Casablanca

I can honestly say I have never been more intrigued by an episode of a show @ the festival than by this one.

You can get a brandy for 45 cents in 1960.

Lowest-rated WKRP ever.

I like the part where Herb Tarlek's wife pointed out that Ferris Bueller is a righteous dude.

Listen to that beautiful licensed music!

I think Herb quantum leaped into a chimp body with that kind of arm hair

I was one of the people who watched this live online.

Fun fact: Johnny Fever never said "More music and Les Nessman." It is spoken one time- by Venus

Maybe it's the glasses but Hugh looks like he is related to Letterman.

Loni Anderson would be a great option for TMZ's "Good Genes or Good Docs"

Loni Anderson's plastic surgery is better than most.

Fawlty Towers is like Newhart with a much angrier innkeeper

The maid character and John Cleese were married and co-created the show

Why is Jack studying for a cooking exam in his bedroom?

Suzanne Somers plastic surgery is better than most

I'm glad Aaron chose an episode with the Regal Beagle

Chrissy cries like Ophelia

Oh, I think Chrissy has heard of Shake & Bake.

Does that police officer have a court warrant?

It's not a true TV Festival if you're not a little sick of TV at the end of it

The Mr. Covington theme sounds a lot like the theme to Mr. Belvedere

What was the best show of the festival?
