First of all, Thinking Ape Blues is back!! Stop on by!
Second of all, this episode represents something of a first, as up to now, throughout 342 episodes and various specials, we have yet to represent a still living person. To take the curse off of it, we didn’t name him, but who else would be the Arbiter of Smooth than the legend himself? There are powerful contenders for the throne, we realize, but we all know what is, in fact, what.
Come to think of it, last episode was the first on-panel kiss we’ve ever had… oh the walls how they crumble in these heady times…
