"The Amanda Show" is forever famous for its goofy skits and outside-of-the-box hilarity. With characters and quotable catchphrases galore, it remains a bright icon of the '90s. From dancing lobsters to hillbilly moments, "The Amanda Show" had it all. But at the end of the day, I think everyone can agree that one star shone far brighter than all others on the show. That’s right. You guessed it. I’m talking about Mr. Oldman, the comically oblivious old man that was forever being prank called by young Amanda. While watching several episodes of the show instead of studying, I began to realize just how relatable Mr. Oldman was. He's a true inspiration to us all. So let’s just take a moment before you read the rest of the post, and all together say: “I am Mr. Oldman.”
