Has everyone seen the clip on MTV's website for "Life in the Past Lane"?

Upchuck doing magic tricks? Why? Is there a point to it? What does it have to do with Jane getting a retro boyfriend? Surely her boyfriend's not Upchuck?

Did I miss the punch line?

Well if it is I can smugly turn round and say "Told you all Upchuck wasn't that bad and you wouldn't believe me !" :) :) :)

First we have people defending Sandi, now Upchuck.

It's a good thing Slobodan Milosevic is off-topic. :-) . . . . . . . JUST KIDDING!!!

Well, I'll defend Sandi any time - hell, I'll defend Ms. Barch - but Upchuck? <Tiffany> Upchuck...eewwww. </Tiffany>

(What's so bad about Milosevic, anyway? It's always "Milosevic this," "Milosevic that," but how many of us have ever stopped to think about how it looks from his side?)

What the - it was just a joke? Dang. Um...Milosevic really, really sucks!

The clip's usually taken from the episode opening and doesn't necessarily give you an idea of what the show's going to be about (last week's episode, for example - Jake's peanut sauce did play a role in the plot, but it wasn't exactly the major focus). This looks to be more of the same (tho' I thought it was a funny scene - what can I say? Kevin cracks me up.)

Actually, the clips that are shown usually are part of what might be called the "B" plot or subplot, as opposed to the "A" plot or main plot. Since I've seen the episode, I know that the Upchuck magic show is the subplot and not the main plot. Still, the subplot and the main plot are usually connected, if not always in an obvious fashion.

I seem to recall that a crucial scene in "Dye! Dye! My Darling" (no prizes for guessing which one) was revealed ahead of time on the Web Site - maybe somebody got an earful over that. The only recent clip I can think of that showed a non-opening scene connected to the main plot was the one for "Camp Fear." The "Life in the Past Lane" clip wasn't from the very beginning, but it was from the second scene, and the first scene was just a few seconds long.

I hope so.

I don' think the scene of Jane picking up Nathan in the shop would have given too much away.
