The finest, funniest, highest times of our lives spent alongside the Market Warriors, we realised with some shock, were those spent cruising about on the back of the buggy with JOHN BRUNO.
How often does COUSIN JOHN say of an old dilapidated toy car or airship or G.I. Joe or wind-up deep-sea diver that he "had that exact one when he was a kid"? You start to wonder if, within his dirt-poor Brooklyn tenement community, JOHN was that kid who had every toy that ever came onto the market.
Sometimes watching the show you have to ask why they gave JOHN the epithet "The Professor." The question is irresistible and must be asked aloud, "Professor of what?"
Professor of fucking up?
Professor at losing the game every week?
These titles are almost as useless as a Doctorate in American Studies!
