GMMB 01.12 - Clubs and Cliques

This blog is now in video form HERE.

Poor, adorable Zack Morris. You got had by the Rigmas. Typically, fraternity-type clubs/organizations have a name made up from the Greek alphabet. (The Greek letters for A and B are alpha and beta, so we are actually encompassing all 26 English letters into two Greek representatives, alpha-bet.) The Rigmas are not named after a Greek letter. In fact, the only definition you will find is on Urban Dictionary, that site where many of the definitions have poor grammar. Perhaps the club name was picked simply because it sounded Greek. Who knows?

What I do know is we are still keeping that young secretary around.

Now let's take a moment to spotlight Mylo Williams, mostly since he won't be around next season.

Mylo was played by T.K. Carter. Late 70's-early 80's looked promising for the young actor. He had roles in several movies and television shows, but things seemed to slow down for him after that. Bummer. Although, he did give his voice to one of the greatest sports-cartoon hybrids in history: Space Jam. You can envision him as either this guy:
Nerdlucks
This guy:
Monstars
Or this guy:
Muggsy Bogues!
He also got to be in this movie with this lady.
Kiera Knightley in "Domino"
Sadly, that's really all that has happened with one of the better characters from "Good Morning, Miss Bliss." I wish he could have been transplanted to "Saved by the Bell." Oh well.

But what about the guests in this show? Who cares? Trevor and Rick were played by J. Trevor Edmond and Christopher Carter, respectively, and had little else to show for themselves. And I'm tired of posting bios of nobodies. (I'm sure they aren't actually nobodies.)

Feel free to share what stood out to you in the comments below.
