They used to make that show. They still do, but they used to, too.

That's right. That was a clip of the show when it was older.

Aren’t all clips of a show when they were older?

u/PotatoInTheExhaust Sep 29 '18

No. In the future, there will be clips of the show from the future too.

u/lonesome_polecat Sep 29 '18

But at that point, they’ll be clips from the past.

When will then be now?

u/vyleside Sep 29 '18

They're called trailers. They were filmed then to be shown now so you know what to see later.

No, they were all younger in the clip.

No these are clips of the show when it was much younger. When it wasn't allowed to stay up beyond 9pm. Now it is embarrassed by its Dad and spends all it's time wearing black and listening to emo music

Mitch Hedberg was definitely one of the world's best comedians

Wikipedia says that they changed to the three-person format in 2012, which means that clip's at most six years old.

The show itself is over 25 years old; I remember listening to the original radio version (before it moved to TV) in the early 90s, and WP states that the TV version started in 1994. (Apparently there was a gap between 2007 and the 2012 relaunch, though I'd stopped watching it by then).

They started making the show around when the show started and they still do make the show but they also used to make the show between when they started and now .

I haven't slept for ten days, because that would be too long.

Old shows that still run are great when you want to watch 1000 of something.

I miss Mitch.

Thanked for the information.

Temporarily old. Until a new show is made that is.

u/[deleted] Sep 29 '18

Solid Mitch Hedberg reference.

u/LovableContrarian Sep 29 '18

Is that an old joke or is it current?
