His Trump impression sounds like he's doing an impression of Seth Meyer's bad Trump impression

Seth's Trump impression is the funniest/best one out there.

Lighting, make-up, acting styles, there are a ton of factors that make 90s tv look the way it looks. And I don't want it to look "enhanced." There's a charm to the way those shows looked, to me. To some I'm sure a 4K UHD restoration/presentation is great and awesome, and I'm sure to many of those people I sound like an old man yelling at clouds. I get it. Maybe I am. It's just not something I want or need or feel like I can appreciate.

Now that you've provided closure on the sitcom thing, I'm going to need closure on this, because you gotta be joking!

Hard to argue with that. Maybe I can be swayed.

I am not!

Now, don't hear something I didn't say. I did not say his was the most authentic or accurate sounding. Seth nails the esthetic. He understands the vibes of the thing. His timing and emphasis is hilarious. It's perfect caricature/satire. Like Carlin so perfectly observed, anything can be funny, it all depends on the exaggeration. Seth's exaggeration slays me!

Who shot J.R.?
Who killed Mr. Burns?
Is Jon Snow dead forever?

Cliffhanger season endings were fun. But now their watch has ended.

Don't know if this belongs in the TV or Sports forum, but the Brewers are having a Stranger Things theme night and while I think that show fell in love with the smell of it's own shit and now just stinks, this is one heck of a cool hat:

I feel like 720p is all you need for sitcoms.

Everything deserves to look as good as it can. I’ve never understood the “only certain genres need good visual quality” mentality.

I certainly don't believe only certain genres need good visual quality.

Many here are far more vested in film culture and conversation so I won't be surprised to hear that there is a contingency that holds such a belief, but that's not something I've ever considered, let alone heard until right now.

It's definitely prevalent, enough so that it actually affects sales, which in turns affect which titles get 4K disc releases and which don't. Which is a bummer. For example, horror and action titles are far more likely to get physical 4K releases than comedies or romances. Often even when the comedy/romance movie made more at the box office than the action/horror movie did. I'm sure it's just because the one type sells better than the the other on disc, but I wish that weren't the case.

I just had an intense flashback to a show I used to watch as a young child, but am having trouble locating. It was an animated show from the early-to-mid 90s about a group of unborn babies hanging out in some sort of heaven-like environment waiting for their turn to be born. I don't remember much about it except they used to talk about what life would be like, and they would have adventures as they waited for storks to take them away.

Apparently a very obscure show as I'm having trouble finding any info about it, but I swear I did not hallucinate it
