Would you like to flashback to the 90s? Do you remember what it was like to be on geocities? Would you like free screen savers and browser icons? Have you forgotten what it's like for a website to have frames?

Then head on down to the official Space Jam website which is inexplicably still a valid destination on the Information Superhighway. Simply point your browser device to:

Hogan's Heroes : Breaking

I'm watching an episode of Hogan's Heroes from Season 5 and in the episode "the gang" has to retrieve something from Klink's safe. So Newkirk puts on the stethoscope and breaks into it.

Come on, this is Season 5, they should simply have the combination memorized by now. What are we supposed to think, that Klink is changing out his safe every few days? Heh Heh.

The Tonight Show - Louis C.K.

How rare it is that "The Dana Carvey" show gets mentioned in any capacity but how sweet it is. Louis C.K. tells a story about the time when he was head writer for "The Dana Carvey Show" and Jimmy Fallon auditioned to be in the cast.



I've always thought I should make a post dedicated to "The Dana Carvey Show" but I probably never will so I might as well summarize it briefly here.

"The Dana Carvey Show" was a tragically under-watched, underrated, under-appreciated show that was cancelled after just 7 episodes. It was probably my favorite show of the mid-90s.

Look at the talent involved. The writers/performers for the show included:

Louis C.K.
Robert Smigel
Dana Carvey
Stephen Colbert
Greg Daniels (Parks and Rec, King of the Hill, The Office)
Steve Carell
Spike Feresten (SNL, The Simpsons, Seinfeld)
Charlie Kaufman (yes, THE Charlie Kaufman, Being John Malkovich, Adaptation, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind)
Jon Glaser (Late Night with Conan O'Brien)
Bob Odenkirk
Dino Stamatopoulos (Late Night with Conan O'Brien)

And ALMOST Jimmy Fallon.
