3. He had his own band
Marshall only DJ'ed.
I wonder if the other folks in the lounge know what the heck this is about?

4. Apparently not--but I was a HUGE fan.
Marshall just had this compelling wistfulness about him . . .

5. I was (still am) a big fan
Square Pegs was a great show, lots of fun.
I always felt bad for Marshall-poor guy-I would've probably been best friends with him in high school, he was so loyal. Johnny had the clueless thing going for him, plus the bad rat tail.
I hope you taped them off TV Land. I did! That show still makes me laugh.

6. Man, that was my favorite show back then!
I was flipping the dial recently, and the first episode of it came on. I was overtired and needed to get to bed, but I couldn't resist staying up and watching it, since it had been years since I'd seen the show. Of course, it's very dated (since it was set in its own particular period), but I thought it was still just as funny. I even remembered a lot of the particular show. But everyone in it looked SOOOOO young! LOL

I have a couple of favorite episodes I'd love to see again. Does anyone know if they ever released the show on video?

8. No video yet
I thought the show was great and was very disappointed after it was canceled after one season (that's 2 weeks in 2003 years!). That's why I taped it when I discovered it was on SO LATE!

7. Johnny, totally
Marshall was way too Borsch-belt (sp) for my comedic tastes, but he did look cute in his Devo hair-hat.

9. Johnny had the spaced out new wave thing going
Marshall was into the 3 stooges, stand up and was in love. The man felt deeply!
Is that high school enough?
