07 Moments in TS History (Greg Kinnear)
* TS Dysfunctional Families (Thanksgiving 1993 and 1994)
* Cream of Talk Soup (1993 and 1994)
* The Best of Talk Soup (end of the year)
* Homemade Talk Soup (1994 special that highlighted the TS Players' skits)
* May 1994 - Angered by some comments made by a Warner Brother's executive
about why some talk shows removed their clips from TS, Greg dismisses the
statements on TS. E! pulls the offending show off the air (East coast
viewers got to see it at 9:00 p.m.) and Greg has to apologize to Warner
Brothers, albeit not on TS.
* Memorial Day Weekend, 1994 - Greg lets the viewers vote for "Clip of the
Week" and presents the results on May 30 (tie-less Monday). I only
remember the clip that should have won, "I'm addicted to dominitrixes..."
from The Richard Bey show. Though Greg thought the response to the poll
was dismal, he gamely introduced the TS voice-mail line. TS favorite Coco
even left a message.
* July 4, 1994 - Following his much-publicized stunts on "The Arsenio Hall
Show" and "The Tonight Show," (trashing the set and starting a couch on
fire, respectively), comedian Bobcat Goldwaith hosts the Independence Day
edition of TS. The set remains intact.
* September 5, 1994 - Kato Kaelin hosts the Labor Day edition of TS. He
had previously auditioned for E! in April of 1993.
* November 18, 1994 - TS hosts its first, its last, its one and only, live
audience for the weekend edition.
* December 8, 1994 - 800th Show - To mark the occasion, TS weekday
edition adds clips from earlier shows and plays the original TS theme, a
tinny little number that was easy to forget.
