I'm thinking it would be more aptly named "GoAway"!!

I didn't understand the fund raising aspect, but I'm fairly certain the business model depends on fools with deep pockets.; 7/22/20, 9:38 AM

Throughout the whole pandemic (or as comedian Andrew Santino calls it, "the pandy") there's been a number of these TV show cast reunions for charity on Youtube (and I assume probably Twitch and Facebook too). Basically you have a bunch of actors who have little else to do during lockdowns who figure what the heck, may as well do something that pleases their fans, keeps them somewhat relevant, and raises some money for charity. I know the cast of the show "Community" did something similar to this. And I perhaps "The Office"? Or was that just John Krasinski doing something with various cast members?; 7/22/20, 10:31 AM

They're preying on fat chicks living with their mothers.; 7/22/20, 11:14 AM

Read the post title and stop after the first 4 words then, why didn't you?

Or click the "Comeback" tag and find out. I don't go back to Square 1 for every post.; 7/22/20, 11:15 AM
Ann Althouse said...: I'll just say "The Comeback" is my all-time favorite TV sitcom and I've written about it many times.

The video has people from the show just talking about it, with clips. If you care about the show, it's exciting. If not... it's not for you. For sure.; 7/22/20, 11:16 AM

Read the sentence and stop after the first 26 words then, why didn't you?
It makes it quite obvious that I was referring to the two guys and whatever it is that they are doing.; 7/22/20, 10:49 PM
