If you’ve never seen or even heard of Get a Life, know that the show’s influence on the cultural landscape runs deep. Perhaps you’ve heard of Dan The Automator and Prince Paul’s collaborative effort Handsome Boy Modeling School. They did the song “Holy Calamity” that you probably heard on Tony Hawk’s Underground 2 or on the soundtrack for Slackers.

This week we’ve got a bonus video! Ever wonder why “What Makes You Beautiful” sounds so familiar? Are you old enough to remember the 1990 Chris Elliott sitcom “Get a Life”?
