Episode description

It’s A Different World! (From where you come from). Ah, remember the days when TV shows had theme songs? Remember the days when they had MULTIPLE VERSIONS of their theme song? And OH, the BTS drama of Lisa Bonet’s departure from this Cosby Show spinoff and piece of UTTERLY formative media. BUT: it gave us the epic love story of Whitley Gilbert & Dwayne Wayne. Excuse us, Dwayne CLEOFIS Wayne. CLEOFIS. Cleofis. Also, we discover that a Jamaican accent is not that far from a Minnesota one, dontcha know.  And that Vulture’s scathing review of Netflix’s Malcolm & Marie is GOD-DAMN levels of harsh, but we gotta give kudos for its mastery of the essay form.
