#111 – IT'S LIKE, YOU KNOW . . .

BINGE AND PODCAST: “It's like, if Caroline was one of Seinfeld's Friends but in a different city.” (1999)

Shows about fashionable friends struggling through their 20s with rambling repartee were required viewing in the 1990s. So how, with their pre-Wikipedian knowledge of Must See tv, did Bob and Tim manage to pretty much miss 1999’s IT’S LIKE, YOU KNOW… . Are you familiar? Because they think they are and, in today’s episode, they attempt to understand why this West Coast Seinfeld failed to connect with a weekly audience. That … and Tim’s voice cracks. A lot.

00:00:00  IT’S LIKE, UNLICENSED AUDIO - A promo from purgatory

00:00:25  IT’S LIKE, 90S TV - Bob starts it off with a question… followed by a different question

00:04:14  IT’S LIKE, A LOT OF OTHER SITCOMS - so why don’t we like, you know it?

00:10:17  IT’S LIKE, ACTORS YOU’VE HEARD OF - a recognizable cast of characters

00:17:46  IT’S LIKE, SEINFELD - and people were prudes in the ‘90s

00:29:25  IT’S LIKE, A LIVE STUDIO AUDIENCE - reality killed the comedy star

00:36:25  IT’S LIKE, HOW BATHROOMS WORK - sort of an L.A. story

00:47:13  IT’S LIKE, LOCATION - does it matter where these shows take place?

00:50:42  IT’S LIKE, THE ONE TIM LIKED - and why weren’t they watching it?

01:02:32  IT’S LIKE, CLOSINGS - contacts, plugs and no catch phrase

Pretty sure this is a fairly legal way to watch these three episodes of IT’S LIKE, YOU KNOW... so, discreetly check out the season 1 episodes discussed with EP# 05: THE CLIENT, EP #06: TWO DAYS IN THE VALLEY and EP #07: AUTHOR, AUTHOR.

Read how an L.A. transplant received this with KEN TUCKER'S 1996 ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY REVIEW OF IT'S LIKE, YOU KNOW ...

Wonder what “Caroline In The City” is doing on SCREEN RANT’S 20 ‘90S SITCOMS FANS COMPLETELY FORGOT ABOUT BY SERGIO PEREIRA.

Then read what will hopefully be this podcasts' sole reference to "3rd Rock From The Sun" with 20 BEST (AND 10 WORST) FORGOTTEN ‘90S SITCOMS OFFICIALLY RANKED BY DANIEL KURLAND, as also featured on SCREEN RANT.

And, finally, know that this is INSIDE SCHWARTZ.
