Not many can pull off that hair Marc. It’s pretty much you and Bea Arthur.
Oh, and CASUAL REFERENCE TO BEN FOR THE WIN!! I am now a official part of the Angry Puppy canon and need my own Top Trumps card and entry in the “Complete Angry Puppy Visual Encyclopedia” in stores this holiday season.

As I said on AfterElton:
OK, now it’s just eerie. ;)
Not only do you get all the Mystery Geek Challenges, but you correctly guessed why we have that wig! And we didn’t even ask…
I had a Bea-Arthur-themed birthday party a couple of years ago. It started out as a throw-away joke, but Marc turned it into an extravaganza.

Nice episode. And I totally know what you’re talking about with those Sci-Fi Saturday cliches.

How sad is it that I know who Salacious Crumb is?

And the reason “The Hub” was so well written? That would be because of Jane Espenson of Buffy the Vampire Slayer fame.
