2. When I was at school and college in the UK we didn't really have school reunions. After we graduated we usually scattered to all the corners of the world or stayed and worked in the UK. We had war reunions and family reunions however. Reunions can bring out the worst in people, old rivalries, bad memories and so on. I prefer to avoid them. If they all turned out like the ones in these clips, the world would be a better place. Do you agree?
3. I like satirical comedy. SNL is one of a very few successful north American shows using this type of humor. Britain takes satire to a different level and has had and still has many successful satire comedy shows. Here is an example of what would now be called diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) humor from "the early days." Was it ahead of its time?
