LENNY: Lenny...to Squiggy...I have a sighting!
SQUIGGY: Is it a UFO?
LENNY: Better! Laverne is taking a shower with the shades up!
There is no explanation for what they're doing in Boulder, Colorado, or the 1970s, but hey, at least Lavenny gets a (stalkerish) shout-out.
I'd totally forgotten that cameo oh my God.
ReplyDeleteI was skimming through my copy of MAD About the '70s to see if it had the L & S parody. It didn't, although it did have HD. This caught my eye as I was turning the page. The parodists would always throw in cameos (like the Peanuts Gang, randomly), and this one sort of makes sense, since it is the Marshallverse. Or maybe they (Silverstone & Torres) thought of the "shower" joke first and figured they already had established Len & Squig as Peeping Toms. And who else would Lenny spy on? You see, everyone is a Lavennist in their own way.
DeleteOoh I have that, and yep, M&M and HD's parodies are in it but no LAS at all.
DeleteIn the end, it all comes back to L&L.
Except in Season Eight.
ReplyDeleteHey, he does get to ask her to marry her again in that one! And ask her to dance with him. It's something. Not as much as Carmine and Laverne get, because of the situation though.
DeleteYes, there are a few Lavenny crumbs in Season Eight, but Squank is a more plausible ship that year.
DeleteOh my god, Squank!
DeleteThe hidden ship in "Sing, Sing, Sing."
DeleteTheir love is so duetty...
DeleteWhy do you think Frank forbade Squiggy to ask out Laverne? :-P
