I walked away from it with melancholy

I think it hit just as they intended. Great writing. But yep me too.

I just watched the entire season of Man On the Inside in one sitting. It's funny and Ted Danson is great, but also heartwarming. If you've ever had elderly relatives in those kinds of homes, it'd resonate. I don't get emotional over TV or movies, but there were a few times it almost got me.

WKRP has three of the top 5 funniest bits in TV history. The Turkey Drop, The Phone Police, and the one where Johnny and Venus take an impaired test and Johnny gets better at it the more he drinks.

I love that scene but ranking top bits is silly when you consider all Brit comedy, seinfeld, all in the family, cheers, etc.
