‘And a Movie’: The story of ‘Community’

The Observer | Thursday, October 13, 2022

“Six seasons and a movie.” For one fandom, this was more than a quote. It was a goal — an aspiration for the show that they loved. This is the story of the show “Community” and how its fans were just so dedicated to harassing NBC employees that the show managed to get saved from

‘This Is Us’ provides a sentimental story of catharsis

Nicholas Ottone | Tuesday, February 13, 2018

After the Super Bowl, 27 million viewers tuned into “This Is Us” to watch Jack Pearson, the show’s beloved patriarch, die.

Saturday Night Revive: Aziz Ansari’s monologue jolts show to life

Jimmy Kemper | Wednesday, January 25, 2017

“Saturday Night Live” (SNL), for better or worse, is a fundamental institution in American political comedy. No other late-night show has received as many Emmy nominations, covered so many topics or introduced so many comedians to us as SNL has over its 40-year-plus run. This history of great comedy has made it disappointing over the

Live from New York it’s … Who?

Carlos De Loera | Monday, September 26, 2016

SNL creator Lorne Michaels chose not to renew the contracts of Taran Killam, Jay Pharoah and Jon Rudnitsky for the upcoming season. This comes as a bit of a shock because Killam and Pharoah, both cast members since 2010, had become two of the most popular and consistently funny members of the cast. Rudnitsky had been a strong member since

A successor to NBC’s ‘Comedy Night Done Right’

Matt McMahon | Monday, January 18, 2016

The last true bastion of network comedy block scheduling — which the NBC TV network ran as its “Comedy Night Done Right” in different iterations on Thursday nights from 2009 to 2013 — may finally have a worthy successor. However, with NBC’s abandonment of its sitcom programming, its new successor mirrors neither network nor night of

This Thursday, Feb. 16, the 93rd annual Bengal Bou This Thursday, Feb. 16, the 93rd annual Bengal Bouts will begin its preliminary rounds. A men’s boxing tournament that benefits the Holy Cross Mission in Bangladesh, Bengal Bouts seems to perfectly combine two integral aspects of Notre Dame’s identity: a passion for sports and a commitment to social impact.

This week, From the Archives takes a long overdue look at the history of Bengal Bouts. While this tournament predates the Observer by nearly four decades, we uncovered a selection of stories that capture at least a part of the rich history of this Notre Dame tradition.

That game was a heartbreaking loss for a Notre Dame team that had started 6-0 before stumbling down the stretch to a 7-5 record. A bowl game win over LSU salvaged some optimism for the program’s future, but that loss to Northwestern was a shocking result that contributed to one of the more appalling stretches of Irish football in the Brian Kelly era.
