EPISODE OVERVIEW

0 Reviews 14 Votes

A year after turning in a proposal for a radio show on the college station, Sabrina and Roxie get their own talk show where students can call in to talk about issues important to them. While Sabrina is thrilled at the prospect of hosting the show, Roxie isn’t, leaving Sabrina to talk her into it. Upon their arrival to the studio, Sabrina becomes tongue-tied while Roxie becomes an instant hit. Seeing how she is natural after a few nights, Sabrina resigns, letting Roxie take control of the show. Meanwhile, Miles becomes the lucky owner of a life-size cardboard cutout of actress Adrienne Barbeau. Eventually deciding to sell it on E-bay, he has the opportunity of meeting Adrienne in person, when she arrives at the coffee shop to pick up her new purchase. At the aunt’s house, Salem begins to fear for his life, when a stray dog, intent on letting Hilda and Zelda wait on him hand and foot, arrives at the front door. Read full recap »

  • Caller #1: I want to talk about the proliferation of cell phones.
    Roxie: Man, are they annoying.
    Sabrina Not to me. There’s nothing I like more than gabbin on the horn. Speaking of horns, whatever happened to Kenny G? What does that ‘G’ stand for? I know it doesn’t stand for general audiences, and what is a general audience anyway? Eisenhower? Schwarzkopf? Patton? Next topic!
    Roxie: Mental health, specifically yours? edit »
  • Roxie: Somebody’s in a better mood.
    Sabrina: Hey, smile and the whole world smiles with you, cry, and you cry alone. Everybody loves somebody sometime.
    Roxie: Had a couple of double espressos? edit »
  • Phil the Dog: Don’t leave me with these losers! One’s, dumb as dirt, the others got the personality of a limp noodle.
    Zelda: How dare you talk about us... You talked! He does talk!
    Hilda: Salem was right! He was just using us!
    Salem: Giving credence to the old adage: Stick with the user you know. edit »
  • Sabrina: Let me guess, Even Steven?
    Even Steven: Well, originally Stefan, but Efen Stefan gave people the wrong idea. edit »
  • Sabrina: Well on the first show I was trying to be spontaneous and Miles thought it’d be a better idea if I prepared. Now you’re saying don’t prepare, be spontaneous. Well I’m not listening to either one of you!
    Roxie: If you’re not going to prepare and you’re not going to be spontaneous, what does that leave?
    Sabrina: Wouldn’t you like to know? (Closes the door.) Wouldn’t I like to know! edit »
