Winnie Cooper was hot.

But Kevin was constantly being wooed by girls that were even hotter. Dumbass!

"I'm gonna be (500 miles)" -- written by Scottish guys. What happened to the metric system? Why not "I'm gonna be (500 kilometers)"? It might not work as well with the song's rhythm, but it's a much shorter distance to have to walk. Plus, it sounds just as impressive, even more so to us Americans seeing that "kilometer" is a longer word than "mile" and presumably refers to a longer distance.

All I'm trying to say is this: I find Charlie Sheen pretty creepy.

Yeah totally.

I mean, remember that one chick that took off her shirt on the boat? He blew it man.

That was Punky Brewster. No lie. And she was going to take off her shirt, but he freaked out and fell in the water.

Coming soon: How Madeline (the Hottest Girl Ever on the Wonder Years) was a Figment of Kevin's Imagination and not an actual character on the show.

Rubbish, they look much more like Digiki.

I liked Gwendolyne 'Winnie' Cooper on Wunderbare Jahre, but - she was so tall that Kevin looked like an idiot trying to get her, let alone steal a kiss. What a loser. Still, one of my favorite shows back in the days - always so melancholic in the end. But, nothing beats Parker Lewis, der Coole von der Schule.
And - there's no twin for him. I guess, he couldnt handle the fame, became a drug addict and could never land another part again - then again, same can be said for Charlie, and he made it, again, and again, so - there still is hope for Corin Nemec...

odot,
you are not alone.

You aren't familiar with the "Separated at Birth?" gag?

Posted by: marxy at June 3, 2006 3:40 PM

Perhaps we get it but are terminally declining to laugh.

Posted by: Momus at June 4, 2006 9:59 AM

You guys are so mean

Posted by: Adamu at June 5, 2006 6:28 AM

I think the words "terminal decline" are now more associated with Momus than me. Oops.
