not into her replacement.

and she was just starting to sing...

i'm saying this as someone who adores the show, has seen it 10x, and wishes it was appreciated more. I think the world would be a better place if everyone saw it. but i do enjoy that it's a small community of fans.

I just realized it's hard to access if you're not familiar with 80s-90s American pop culture, and more so 80s-90s celebrity culture / talk show culture.

When I show my girlfriend from Europe episodes of the show, there's so many references, big and small, that I have to give context for.

she obviously can enjoy when Elvis Costello is an episode or Jim Carrey. But, for example, when they joke about the early Conan O'Brien late night show, I have to explain how it was experimental at the time and struggled with ratings.
