Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for July 06, 2022

“You did this to me!!” (pulls out a gun) “DIE DIE DIE!”

Ah, it was a dream season. That explains why this story arc has been putting us all to sleep.

“Don’t know him. Tell him to go away.”

P3: Uh oh, here comes the tradeoff. Nuthin’ good ever happens in Central City.

P4 “You’ve never heard of him, have you? Send him in as long as he’s brought me my cheeze-whiz, otherwise tell him to get lost.”

P1.5 “I can’t do a d*mnnnnn thing to change yesterday, get away from me you old freak, whoever you are.”

The fact the receptionist doesn’t recognize him should tell Mr. Hamstetter that Gil was right.

P3- Lou Drake, Al Grant, Rush Limbaugh reminds me of my father with the post it notes. Mmgood, mmgood. Don’t forget to buy Campbell’s soup at 7:11?

P 3.5: “…does he have a woman with him?…if not, tell him to go get her and come back…”

P 2.5: “….Gregg!…I’m over here!…”

SIGH and this is only Wednesday. 3 more days of this

Suppose Gregg had said “I’ll live with the shame the rest of my life”?

Hamstetter? As the Wheel Turns. Lou Grant Jr. in P3.

P-1: Gil & Greggg appear in an M. C. Escher stair drawing.

P-2: I learned just how weak our conference really is.

P-3: In an act of defiance, the insensitive R&W have the white guy flash a gang sign to the black woman. Then, the reporter gets up and goes to his own desk. (Whoever heard of a small town TV newsman with a full in box?)

P4: “Nobody cares about him. The readers want to move onto a golf story.”

Gil wandering the hallways like a ghost

Must be summer school, the hallways are pretty empty for a classroom change

Geez….the Mr. Hamster suspense is killing me

If a coach had a record of teams choking like Coach Thorpe does they would have been fired a long time ago!

Yeah, Gregggg found out what happens when you play a good team that isn’t in the lame Valley Conference. You get exposed! And speaking of exposing, what could today’s Mopped Up Thorp be exposing?

So I’m guessing The Hammburgler’s big trade-off was agreeing to an in-depth exclusive interview about his dozen years ago fall from grace. And he’s an idiot, because Lou Grant didn’t even care when he was doing his Gregggg story. He wasn’t going to mention the dad anyway! Now he agreed to an embarrassing story for no reason.

Meanwhile , Mr&Mrs Reality enjoy a nice beach picnic at Lake Milford while ,in all reality , dicussing what gift they should bring to Rubin’s farewell party. Any suggestions , anyone, anyone ?
