[Best OF] 90s DEBRIEF THREAD

[Fat Spanish Waiter]

I'm not sure I've seen CON AIR in full, and thus couldn't vote for it.As I said when this was about to start, if I had decided to make a list in time to actually go back and watch stuff I haven't seen and re-watch stuff I have, my list would have been A LOT different (i.e. no HALLOWEEN 6).

You are not a man.
