Happy Birthday to Us (10/21/97)
SceneLink
 

Hey, it's our one-month birthday! Thanx to all of our faithful viewers for making our pilot a success; with Nielsen Ratings of over 30,000 viewers, AtAT's been picked up for another season. :-)

We are working on some interface changes, including better support for Cyberdog, a text-only version, and some other niceties. Our goal, however, is to keep the 28.8 download time at well under a minute. You can help us out by answering this week's survey, including the optional questions about your browser choice. If you have any suggestions at all, just send us some feedback.

Thanx again for tuning in!

The above scene was taken from the 10/21/97 episode:

October 21, 1997: (Sorry—this was before we started writing intro text for each episode!)

Other scenes from that episode:

  • 104: Hypothetically Speaking (10/21/97)   My oh my, strong hypothetical words from the Mac Conspiracy. They present an entirely hypothetical situation in which a hypothetical Mac news website hypothetically "shuts down" without reason, inciting suspicion of intervention by the Man, then suddenly (and hypothetically) reappears, with no explanation as to why they were down...

  • 105: Insider Scandal (10/21/97)   Another take on the MacInsider drama is MacCentral's amazing coverage, and they're not dealing in hypotheticals. Read the email they received, revealing that MacInsider is not run by ex-Apple employees whom Apple pressured into silence by threatening the jobs of their still-employed friends (pity, we rather liked that scenario-- lots of drama)...

  • 106: SLAM! DoJ Busts M$ (10/21/97)   Poor beleaguered Microsoft... Seems they have no end of troubles these days. First, Sun Microsystems, in a heavily-publicized lawsuit, sues them for breach of contract because of the incompatible version of Java in MSIE 4.0...

Why did you tune in to this '90s relic of a soap opera?
Nostalgia is the next best thing to feeling alive
My name is Rip Van Winkle and I just woke up; what did I miss?
I'm trying to pretend the last 20 years never happened
I mean, if it worked for Friends, why not?
I came here looking for a receptacle in which to place the cremated remains of my deceased Java applets (think about it)

DISCLAIMER: AtAT was not a news site any more than Inside Edition was a "real" news show. We made Dawson's Creek look like 60 Minutes. We engaged in rampant guesswork, wild speculation, and pure fabrication for the entertainment of our viewers. Sure, everything here was "inspired by actual events," but so was Amityville II: The Possession. So lighten up.

Site best viewed with a sense of humor. AtAT is not responsible for lost or stolen articles. Keep hands inside car at all times. The drinking of beverages while watching AtAT is strongly discouraged; AtAT is not responsible for damage, discomfort, or staining caused by spit-takes or "nosers."
