New video dropped yesterday counting down the 10 catchphrases that completely took over the culture! 📺
https://youtu.be/pRlNmM0cm-Y
These phrases didn't just stay on TV — they ended up in dictionaries, on merchandise, and coming out of the mouths of people who'd never even watched the shows.

Yesterday's video broke down how 8 TGIF shows secretly existed in one shared universe — connected through crossovers, chain letters, and one rocket pack incident.
https://youtu.be/1l5CL7-mzkU

We did the math on 8 iconic 80s and 90s TV apartments...
https://youtu.be/gbmc55DGV50
Monica & Rachel's Friends apartment? Would cost $8,000–$10,000/month today.
Carrie Bradshaw's spending? $234,000/year on a columnist's salary.
Joey borrowed HOW much from Chandler? $114,000–$120,000 over the series.
And Jerry Seinfeld's apartment? It literally CAN'T EXIST — the layout is physically impossible.
Which show had the most unrealistic housing situation? 👇
