The Corner

Cosby, Irony

Kathryn:  Well, chacun à son goût, perhaps never more so than with taste in comedy. Married With Children was more on my wavelength. Somehow I’m thinking you do not consider the Bundys to have been “a good thing for American TV.” Yay for father-daughter bonding anyway, I work hard on that.

Mike:  I recall a New Yorker cartoon in an issue right after 9/11 of a woman walking past a bookstore window. In the window was a pile of books with a big placard saying: NOW WITH 50 PERCENT LESS IRONY!
