Popcorn in Bed - Lethal Weapon

 


8:51 - Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

It's been a long time since I watched, or thought about "Lethal Weapon" but it really is the perfect 80s action movie. I'm watching Murtaugh's wife and thinking, "She looks like Darlene Love." It IS Darlene Love. That's the first time I realized that.

Re:View - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990)

 


A round-table discussion of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie from 1990.

I learned about TMNT from a friend showing me the cartoon and, like Jay, I decided that would be my thing: I would collect all of them. Of course I never had a shot at accomplishing that goal, the corporations were amazing at pumping them out at a torrential pace, but I probably had more TMNT toys than any other "line" at any stage of childhood.

Earlier this year I found in an old box the TMNT movie novelization book that you would buy from Scholastic in those years. And I read it in present day and then I re-watched the movie. But I didn't come up with any original or interesting angle to take to create a worthy blog post about it. But I still remember going to see the original movies in the theater right when they came out and having every pleasure center in my brain firing off at the same time.

Late Show - Artie Lange

 


There is a certain amount of fear whenever Letterman uploads a celebrity interview. I learn about celebrity deaths very often from their new videos. So I should say, to my knowledge, Artie is still alive.

Artie Lange talks about making "Dirty Work" with Don Rickles.

Late Night - Kid Focus Group

 


After the Late Night episode which featured a full audience of kids, Conan solicits focus group feedback.

The child audience show was real, by the way. And it's funny to see a young Jim Gaffigan here. My sense is, this isn't the only time he appeared on the show pre-fame.
