Final Week Recap Of The 1990s TV Draft: The Hoff, Clarissa, Daria & More
For the full sha-bang of the 1990s TV Draft, listen to Episode 18, Episode 19 , Episode 20 & Episode 21, Episode 22, Episode 23 , Episode 24 & Episode 25 of The Keystone Cast.
Note: In writing a previous post I inadvertently murdered the Week 4 recap post (I "edited" when I should have "duplicated"), so if you go to try look for it on the site, it no longer exists. It's also like James Van Der Beek never existed. Sad!
Bad audio quality be damned, we finished the more structured, yet still flawed 1990s TV Draft, but guess what? Parker Lewis can't lose and neither can us or you because even the "Mr. Irrelevant" pick didn't leave unscathed with heated controversy. Zack Pontious, that notorious rule breaker and residential wearer of items that shamelessly reveal his body hair, tried to draft both Pete & Pete in one pick. Disgraceful. Well, rules prevail and Pontious had to choose a different pick to cap off what has seemingly been a tight race. So press your hand against your phone or computer screen against mine (Dusty Rhodes "Hard Times" style) and let's take this journey one last time, but as always, the rules (which Pontious or Marcus do not read):

Rule #1: 28 character roster must have:

Pick #82: Sally Jesse Raphael
Sally - T.V. Personality (Dominic)
Pick #83: Khadijah James
Living Single - Sitcom Female (Marcus)
Pick #84: Dan Conner
Roseanne - Utility Player (Zack)
Let's get one thing clear. Dan Conner is the farthest thing from "Mr. Irrelevant". And let's also be clear: Marcus and Zack both said Sally Jesse Raphael was considered 90s so by those standards that puts her red spectacle wearing ass back on the table. I take her without shame. Sally got me through a lot of after school, pre-dinner time slumps - a little more classier than that scum bum, Jerry Springer, but not afraid to exploit a poor person from time to time. Trash TV royalty if you ask me.
So let's take a look at the final rosters below:
Who do you think won? No joke, we're going to have our votes along with an unbiased committee vote on each team, category by category to see who is the true 1990s TV Draft King. Sound off in the comments or shoot us an email at thekeystonestatement@gmail.com.
