Ohhh The CHRISTMAS episode. Will it be heartwarming? Will it remind me of how important family and friends are?

5. Andrew Lawrence to Joey Lawrence in Horse Sense – Disney Channel Original Movie – November 20, 1999 So fine, Andrew Lawrence doesn’t actually utter “You’re not my father,” but the meaning is all the same AND I’ve been dying to mention Horse Sense since this blog’s inception.

Show: Full House (1987-1995) Character: Stephanie Tanner Actor: Jodie Sweetin How Rude!: What an unfortunate turn of events for Ms. Stephanie Tanner.

by Beal 5. Family Guy “I Dream of Jesus” featuring “Surfin’ Bird” by the Trashmen (October 5, 2008) In 1963 this extremely annoying song reached #4 on the American Billboard Hot 100, (forcing me to assume that when it came to entertainment, the people of the 1960′s were none too discerning).
