Trixx I Played Today

Today Enn and I were talking about -- well, it was more like she was telling me about all the "sad" episodes of comedy sitcoms that really made an impression on her. For example, the episode of "Silver Spoons" when Ricky went on a hunting trip with his grandfather and had to shoot the deer, or the episode of "The Cosby Show" where everyone is fighting but in the end they hugged after gathering around the TV to watch MLK Jr.'s "I have a dream" speech. Then I said, "remember that episode of "The Cosby Show" where Denise finds out she's HIV postitive?" She didn't quite buy that one, esp. since I couldn't keep my face straight. However, I came up with an even better one later on. "Remember when Ethel lost her leg on "I Love Lucy"? "Whot? How?" "In a landmine accident." "Really??? I don't remember that!" ST 1, Enn 0.

i want to clarify that i did not think that MLK episode of the cosby show was sad. i thought it was touching. sad is the episode of golden girls when sophia comes back from phil's funeral and cries "my baby's gone..." that's some good shit.

that's the worst episode, in fact all episodes where sophia has to emote are bad. estelle getty can't act "sad" convincingly, and an otherwise good storyline/scene is ruined. she can't do a convincing italian either.

i wish dvr had repeat capability so i could drug you with so much clon-clon that you can't move and i'd play that episode on loop for 12 hrs straight. or i could just knock you out with so much clon-clon that you can't move and laugh.
