It's a shame that they'll have to make some music substitutions from the original airings, but it sounds like they're taking pains to make careful and appropriate choices.
I was at a meeting recently where I likened a situation to the WKRP episode with the drunk driving test where Johnny Fever got better and faster the drunker he got. Unfortunately, I was surrounded by a group of staff in their 20somethings. You know, there actually IS a cutoff point to pop cultural knowledge? They all stared at me blankly. Even after I said "As god as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly"?? Nothing. So sad.
I've sent them this link, so they can educate themselves. Also, the YouTube link. :)
One of my very favorites. It's probably not as funny to those who too young to remember the days when AT&T/Bell was THE monolith. Well, I guess they kinda are getting there again, but there is at least more than one phone company nowadays.

I swear, FOUR blank looks. And at least one of them a Whedonite! And another I'm sure is a fan-type at least to some degree. I was so ashamed.
