The pizza place? How is that "retro"? They're still around.

I was alluding to the tribute band in the Lee Selwyn segment.

Reviving an old thread...I just thought of several more examples:

-The HUGE oversized glasses in the Randall Utterback segment

-The images of 80s excess in the Tammy Leppert segment

-I believe there's some sort of oversized cell/cordless phone seen in the I-70 killer segment

the lady that lost her memory following brain surgery...I thought it was so funny when she was looking at the monte carlo and said it looked like something out of the space-age,or something to that effect..and putting her hands on it and was walking around it,like she just couldn't believe it.LOL.
then when she put on music and was dancing around the living room while cleaning..oh my...hilarious.she looked like a teenager.I'm so glad she came across the article about memory loss and figured out what happened,and admitted it to her family.her girls said they could tell when the bandages came off that she didn't recognize them.

Dare I ask what a "Skullet" is?

Another one that comes to mind is that segment about the DEA operation in Miami where they set up the fake telecommunications shop to sell cell phones and pagers to drug runners. The phones and pagers were MASSIVE.

The whole concept of the cell phone store as a front is pretty retro too. I doubt such a sting could really be orchestrated today with disposable cell phones being so common and widely available.
