The NewsRadio appreciation thread
Thanks to Mimi for bringing up this great show. The entire cast was great, but Phil Hartman was absolute genius.
So many great episodes...
... the one where Dave's college a cappela group reunites...
...the one where Matthews grows a mustache...
...the one where Jimmy has his autobiography translated into Japanese...

The only episode I remember was the about an alien autopsy. Is that the right show?
Oh, and can we have an appreciation thread for Phil Hartman's voice. Damn. So smooth.

Yeah, it was an exceptional throwback to the 1970s ensemble workplace comedy.
