    There’s a lot of gentle, wry, observational humor going on in this period which directly flowed from Doonesbury as I recall it. “Bland” to some, maybe, but there was a solid, national audience for this stuff at one time.

    But with the rise of MTV and the culture shifting so much and so fast in the 80’s, I suppose Breathed gradually saw the writing on the wall, removing a good chunk of the subtlety over time.

    Would this be the first Sunday edition?
