    Thank you so much for uploading this. I was at the taping in the front row, so it's great to be able to see myself, in my teal jeans, on the Thrill Cam! What an amazingly fun evening this was. Dave did his own audience warm-up and was standing right in front of me only inches away.

    Sid Loves Fudge! Who knew? This is in my favorite show range 82-89.

    My paper route money wasn't enough to buy a VCR in 1987, but I often recorded the show on cassettes, and would splice together "best of" mixtapes. Vividly remember this one, but it's been 33 years since I've seen the accompanying video! Thank you so much. Incidentally, the following Friday night Dave abandons all hope of holding onto that key 10-13yo age demographic and lays into one of the best rants ever. "I just want to say this. From my heart. The reason this country, The United States Of America, is in the sorry shape it's in today is because of music videos!"

    Very 80's to see the Molly Ringwald cover of Life magazine. As i recall 1987 was probably the last good year for the "Brat-Pack" generation of actors. By 1988 the next generation of young actors were now taking over. (River Phoenix, Winona Ryder, Christian Slater, Johnny Depp, Ethan Hawke, Keanu Reeves, Uma Thurman)

    Saint Martins it’s weird, as a millenial i love, appreciate and connect with the 80s Brat-Pack a lot more than the next generation of actors you mention, despite their being more contemporary to the time of my upbringing. Never really thought about why, but your commentary makes for reflection. :-)
