Season 2
The second season, lasting during Fall 2008, began auspiciously with the first annual Orientation Edition, in which Stewart, Bell, Ross Lackey ’11 and Ellen Goodson ’11 followed new freshmen around, popularizing the phrase “I’m just trying to get to Harris Teeter,” as well as making sure the newcomers knew to wrap it before they tapped it. The show was produced on a weekly basis, with 11 episodes in all for the semester. The show was guest hosted throughout the semester by the basketball team (takeover edition), Alpha Phi Alpha, and the cast of Hamlet. The season included the recurring segment “Davidson Etiquette” as well as a music video of Miley Cyrus’s “See You Again” featuring Clark as Miley herself.
