For anyone in the Boston area, check out the "Basquiat and the Hip Hop Generation" exhibit at the MFA. Very surprised to see this graffiti/hip hop exhibit about the New York underground music and art scene while visiting Boston this past week. It's billed as a Basquiat show, but the real star is RAMMELLZEE!!!

Yes, Night Flight was Fridays, sometimes Saturdays in New Jersey. The USA network had it. They ran for three hours, which was awesome. Sometimes it would be a movie for half the time. Killer documentaries also. The rest was usually very well executed bug out shit. Check out the background, for now. www.nightflightplus.com...

Mr. Pumpy:

If you like The Young Ones, and The Comic Strip Presents, check out Bottom, which I believe fell in between the two, chronologically. It's only two seasons, like TYO, but it is just as nutso and clever. It is Rik Mayall (Rik) and Adrian Edmonson (Vyvyan) as two difunctional sociopathic losers that live together. It is an extension of The Young Ones as far as production values and extremity of humor goes. It is also currently on Amazon Prime! BOTTOM! www.youtube.com...
