I never would have missed an episode if they had included the live feed.
What, Me Worry?
Gone but not forgotten!
This video is only concerned with the artists who contributed to Mad in it’s first two decades – even if some of them carried on for longer. I’ve got nothing against those who came later but I’m selfishly only dealing with the ones who inspired and influenced me as I grew up. They taught me more than 4 years of college ever did. Apparently in the early Kurtzman comic years Mad was printed in colour, although all the examples I found were black and white only, and according to a particularly grumpy viewer Dave Berg didn’t die until 2002. Mea culpa.
New Sloan! New Sloan!
Get in MY VEINS.
Looking For Something Spooky To Watch?
First two episodes available today, with two more added each night through the 28th. 75 on Metacritic, I’m in!
Guillermo del Toro – the master of horror – presents a collection of unprecedented and genre-defining stories that will challenge our traditional notions of horror.

Nice Song Ray
When you’re ignorant, everything is new and exciting.
I had no idea that Mr Davies wrote this tune until I learned it in the episode of Waterloo Sunset, which just dropped. It’s awesome.
As are the Pretenders live in London.
Boom!
These young bastards have potential.
Prepare To Have Your Face Melted
I was just online talking about what a great live album Budokan is, when someone corrected me that this 2020 album (of a 1977 show at The Whisky) easily blows it away. He’s right!
The Licensing People Said No
Great Letterman bit. BMI & ASCAP are not to be trifled with.
Dang, Almost Forgot

They Called Her … The Little Girl Who Lives Down The Lane
This trailer scared the shit out of me as a kid. Turns out, it’s based on an excellent Laird Koenig book from 1974. I just finished it on Kindle, so I may have to see if I can find the movie streaming somewhere.
