Kind of a washout there. Pretty much like the 1970s themselves.

Great show there. Poor Dr. Bob, trying to stay sane in a whirlwind of nuttiness.




For a 90s simulacrum, try "News Radio" with Dave Foley as the straightman:

Dave Foley .............. Dave Nelson
Phil Hartman ............ Bill McNeal
Maura Tierney ........... Lisa Miller
Stephen Root ............ Jimmy James
Joe Rogan ............... Joe Garelli
Vicki Lewis ............. Beth
Andy Dick ............... Matthew Brock
Khandi Alexander ........ Catherine Duke
Jon Lovitz .............. Max Louis

You can have Valerie. I'm done with her since I had to request the restraining order. (Some women just don't know when it's over, you know?)
