My fave parts: David Lieber Mintz saying the words "spicy taco" and the "C" in "taco" having a very soft sound, almost like he was saying "tahoe," and the part from Discount Prices/Premium Prices when Tim said "Premium, I'd say Cream-u-lum" as "Creamium" was spelled out on the screen in front of him. Both of these moments made me laugh louder than I ever have, except for the first time I saw the Chris Farley "Chippendales" sketch on SNL. "Universe" is one of the all-time greatest full 'sodes of sketch comedy. Not even Monty Python could put together entire eps of the Flying Circus that were as good as this.
And how about DLH, huh? He's been the funniest actor on T&EASGJ! this season, period. You remember how T&E went on his cable access show, and, when he was trying to interview them, they screwed around, played music, sang, and just generally T&E'd up the joint, taking over DLH's show for the hour? (Hilarious.) Do you remember the look on David's face when that happened? Well, I think Mr. Liebe Hart is exacting his revenge by taking over T&E's show this season! I mean, the guy's a friggin' GENIUS!
SALAME, indeed!
How could I have forgotten! I guess they don't do much together anymore. I heartily reccomend both series of The Smell of Reeves and Mortimer, it's pretty much the T+EASGJ of the nineties. Torrents of it are tricky to find but theres a dvd you can import which has all 12 episodes on it. Then we can all get together and have a game of Feather West, Ignore the Imaginary Which or Touch the Hutch!
