RIP Sammy Maudlin

 

Honestly one of the best TV dads ever, he's a big reason F&G is as amazing as it is

 

Oh shit. I don't even think I knew he was sick?

 

Thank you for the laughs, Detective Nordberg

 

Wow.

 

The juice is loose in hell

 

Looking forward to the internet doing its thing on this one

 

nah, the internet is very respectful

 

Guys, is it to early to ask if they're going to release his new book, "Now That I'm Dead, I Definitely Did It"?

 

Goddammit. Not the same joke, but similar.

 

OJ's reunited with his good, loyal friend Robert

 

“best known as”

 

I still think about that car chase sometimes.

 

As a kid when the whole media spectacle was going off and comics cracking shots at OJ and everything. One day we visited my grandparents and on their TV was the ending of the first Naked Gun and the bit with OJ at the end I was laughing my ass off I thought it was so funny that an accused murderer did goofy shit like that

 

I was at a bar, drinking.. Maybe TGI Fridays, and we were watching the whie bronco chase on their TV's, and the bar was yelling 'Go OJ Go', not knowing the details of the 'why'.

 

I wish Norm was still with us today

 

I think Carl Tart kind of summed up the support for OJ best: That basically it didn’t matter if he did or didn’t do it. It was a symbolic victory for Black people because after decades of injustice, they got to see a Black man beat the system. Not that it makes it right, but that kind of shifted my perspective on the people who were like “I love OJ!”

That said, that 30 For 30 and “American Crime Story” miniseries are some of the best stuff from the 2010s.

 

SNL got a lot of milage out of OJ in the 90s

 

Tbh 100% of my OJ knowledge comes from ACS

 

What is the best modern day equivalent to the place OJ held in culture pre-murders? He was basically like Michael Strahan right?
