Who made number one?

Would you be willing to transcribe a list of the top 200 of all time list?

I have a great idea for a new game we could do on here with this list.

There. You're welcome! BTW, some names may be doubled, like Gilligan and Bob Denver. I just copied out of the book! I also realized as I typed that there were a few names I left off the list of people Al has parodied and referenced! You find them! My fingers hurt!

Now how does Scooby Doo get on that list and not Al?





On a final note I love this time of night, because all the stoned teenagers are busy buying shiny things, and there are more ppl on this site.



P.S. There's a - between the Spider and the Man, okay. Spidey needs some respect.



And hey, 327 posts! Woohoo, a 27.

I can't believe some of the people on this list. Monica Lewinsky?! It's bad enough that they let her host TV shows!!!! Scooby-Doo? He's a cartoon character!!! Al has been much more influential than him. Cartman's on there too, and he's an even less influential cartoon than Scooby-Doo!

Should Al have been on the list? Probably.

I don't think its supposed to be influential icons, though. Just most iconic, if you will. Scooby Doo, in this case, would argueably get on the list over Al.

It's not as if Al has been shut out of VH1 or anything, so again, I don't think its fair to say they "hate" Al, as someone has suggested.

I'm sure VH1 likes Al just fine, but we may have to wait until they get around to doing "100 Greatest Icon-Skewerers Of All Time" before we see Al in that spotlight.

Now that I've been watching the 200 Icons list, I can safely say Al should be on this list in a completely objective world. Come on... Dr. Phil??? Arsenio Hall???

I'm not saying VH1 purposely excluded Al but more than likely they just forgot him.

I saw the list of people from the 200 icons list that Al has parodied, and David Bowie was mentioned. When did Al ever parody David Bowie?? I've seen UHF plenty of times, and David was never parodied there, or anywhere else. Hmmmm.

Oh. My bad! I always do that! I was confusing David Bowie with Billy Idol. Sorry!
