Here’s a wild TIL. Back in April 2007 (god we are old), SNL aired this sketch Digital Short The Shooter (or Dear Sister). It was super weird. It’s got Bill Hader writing a letter to his sister, and then while “Hide and Seek” by Imogen Heap plays, we go to slow motion while Andy Samberg shoots him, everybody gets shot, there’s some cops (also shot). I remember Jack Burden really liking it, and I remember being mystified.
What I didn’t know (and I don’t know if Jack Burden knew) is that it’s a parody of an infamous scene from The O.C. (from two years prior). This is likely because I have never seen The O.C.
Eh, you probably knew this already. It seems pretty common knowledge (The O.C. was a popular show, and it’s been nearly 19 years). But I had no idea until today. So, whatever.
Mmmmm whatcha sayyyy
