In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide.

And fresh off a nearly one-month break (thanks so very much, car accidents and illness), we're back with "Lane Miserables," here on Morgendorks! When the surprisingly massive immediate Lane family all comes home at once, Jane and Trent find themselves without any room—so they end up living with the Morgendorffers.

Speaking of which, in lieu of our cultural context we dig into Daria's (the show's, not the character's) take on parenting. Also, Rob talks about horses and The Matrix for a bit? I guess? Who knows what the hell that was about. Also! Fan response! We talk about it! Y'all had a lot to say about where we ranked "Daria!," so we're diving into that a bit. Thank you all so much for your patience as we dealt with multiple weeks of delays. We love you guys. Please stay safe, stay well, and do what you can to listen to health experts. This is going to be an absolutely insane couple of months, and we've all gotta be here for one another.
