So did anybody catch the MSCL reference


in Claire Danes Audi commercial? It's a long commercial but the 2 lines at the end are worth it. I laughed so hard. This is pure gold. Only MSCL lovers will get this.

OMG!! that's just far to funny, I love it!!

Thanks for posting, I would never have got to see it in my neck of the woods.

You are very welcome. Someone posted it in a 30STM chat room other wise I would have never seen it either. I loved it. That was just pure gold. Too dang funny. I so love that she did that. I knew my fellow MSCL fans on here would appreciate it.

Yes, thank you latebar. I'm currently rewatching the show. I'm guessing quite a few MSCL fans saw it too, 3 million views seems like alot for a commercial that was uploaded two weeks ago, but hey I could be wrong. I don't usually watch commercials on youtube lol, but I liked this one.

I have crossed oceans of time to find you.

Someone posted it on Tumblr and that's how I found it. I don't normally watch commercials either.

I just posted on Mr. Leto's page. That Chris_Motionless girl went to a 30 stm concert tonight and she got to meet the band and is very very happy. Her mood is contagious and now I'm excited for no real reason lolol. She even changed her name to MetThirtySecondsToMars. I know that's all a bit kooky, but doesn't stuff like that warm your heart a little? I'm really happy for her. Even Tomo, who everyone says is a jerk now, was nice to her.

I know who you mean. She's been on the board for a while. I will have to go read that. I'm jealous! I'm a huge fan and I'd love to meet them. Yeah it's a little kooky. I wouldn't go that far but hey, she's happy. Tomo used to be a sweet guy but since last tour some of Jared's arrogance has rubbed off on him.

Hey sorry I got a little off topic. If anyone wants to comment on the commercial, please do. I'm glad Claire is cool with her past MSCL days. Not everyone likes to be reminded of what they did as a teenager, but this show is nothing to be embarrassed about. The commercial was cool.

I was cured all right.

awww i get all teary eyed and nostalgic hearing her say jordan! good times good times

reply

LOL that's clever! I'm sure there were tons of people who caught that reference. Thanks for sharing!

honey badger don't care.

reply

YW, it was too awesome not to share with this board.

reply

That was an amazing reference but the ad was pretty bizarre up until that point.

I did see that commercial and I thought the "Jordan?" at the end was hilarious. It's impossible not to love Claire Danes. I think it's cool she's still so proud of MSCL.

Another reference that I saw is in Red Band Society. They cancelled it already recently but Wilson Cruz is in it and in one scene he goes into the women's bathroom. His friend looks at him like "What are you doing here?" He's like "What? Just curious what the women's side looks like." Then you hear the voice of the kid who narrates the show and he says "Another lie. The guy's been doing this since high school!" Which is a total reference to how Ricky was constantly in the girls bathroom. Don't you just love little things like that?

reply

I do! I love call backs like that! I've never heard of that show. Thanks for telling me about it. I still watch my boxed set of MSCL a couple of times a year. I love that show and never get tired of it. I have a knack for falling in love with shows that only lasted a season or 3. I saw one of the guys from Freaks and Geeks at a con last year and told him that and he said "So it's your fault!" lol

reply

You're welcome! And actually the person who created the US version of Red Band Society is Margaret Nagle who plays the biology teacher Ms Chavatal on MSCL.

Aw, although I've never gotten into Freaks & Geeks as much, it's definitely another one that went too soon.

reply

Oh thanks! I'll have to check into it. Thanks for the trivia. I never got into Freaks and Geeks like I did MSCL but it was a great show.
