Loved Meatballs the movie.

weird to see that the thumbs up or down didnt come until years later

And they would explain the yes or no was whether they thought you should see it. They did that for a while.

Loved Hot Stuff when I was a kid.

1998 ha ha a telethon. Little did they know about Monica

When I was 10 years old, Meatballs was funny. Now that I’m older, it’s not funny. At least Animal House is still funny.

Is that “Dropo” from Santa Claus vs The Martians at 14:00?

[@zanti4132]

Yep, that's Bill McCutcheon.
Fun fact: McCutcheon also appeared as Uncle Wally on Sesame Street for 15 seasons and as Adolf Hitler in fake ads for two issues of Mad Magazine.
