To an outsider, yes that can be seen as bizarre. To someone who lives here, that is simply what they do.

Engineering isn’t so different from medical.

Preunion tour? They will do a tour in honor for reuniting before they break up?

I’m a 34-year-old male and I still love that song.

Or we could do a Job Bluth and get buried alive to land on a magazine cover.

Glover was always attached to this. They did not change that.

And that wasn’t the original co-star. Maya Erskine was a replacement for Jane when Phoebe Waller-Bridge left the production. Waller-Birdge was originally cast Jane. So the characters would have been a biracial couple.

I glanced briefly at the list of TV examples. As a Trekkie I must point out that in “The Gamesters of Triskelion” (the version that got filmed) we are told the Thrall assigned to Uhura is ordered to do whatever he wants and that Uhura must comply. All you see is an off-screen cut away with screaming in the background. This isn’t usually discussed among the fandom but that was clearly rape. Uhura was raped in that episode. Let that sink-in.

I think the most over the top thing Colbert did on that show was the episode on the funeral industry.
