We Don't Knock! A Sampler from the Cult Boston TV Series

A We Don't Knock sampler, from back in the days when just any idiot could walk right into the JFK Building - assuming their TV cables didn't jam up the revolving door.

They don't make local shows like they use to back in the days

We no longer have truly independent television stations like WSBK used to be back in the day.

1. He had a sweater collection which nearly beats out Bill Cosby for 80's awesomeness.
2. His voice is so deep his vocal cords are in his knees.
3. Ask The Manager, not always with him, should go into the Library of Congress.
4. That inspector at Park Street was a starter at Boylston for years.
5.. Today we'd have a Ferguson police level response if someone tried to walk into the JFK Building or O'Neil Building with a camera. Thanks Timothy McVeigh and Osama, I just wanted to get a passport.

You would have NEEDED a passport to GET a passport.... Massachusetts licenses were about to become invalid for entry into Federal buildings, due to PC intransigence non-compliance with federal REAL ID requirements:

Hopefully Baker will make this nonsense going away a priority.

So far, the Republicans have banished Ebola from America!!! National debt should be gone by next Tuesday, Wednesday at the latest!
By Saturday, Boston pigeons will be shitting gold bullion!!! I can't wait!!!!

Hey stupid, it's a local issue. And the reason that we're in danger of potentially needing a friggin' passport to board a plane or enter a federal building in the country we live in is because the current regime executed a massive FAIL on this. And they happen to be Democrat.

I'm hoping that Baker turns that around. He happens to be Republican.

What's the current curriculum like in Kindergarden these days?

He tried this at the Rat and failed.

F- you. We had Dana Hersey.

and Dana Hersey--I loved both. Nothing like that now, unfortunately.

the novelty is great, but i'm glad this doesn't exist anymore. taken out of context, i would be pretty upset about consent forms when it comes to the press if some guy waltzed into a bar with a camera, let alone if i were a bar manager. lots of legal issues with this show. besides, if some jerkoff with a microphone and a camera came over to start picking at my ribs, you'd probably televise an assault!
all things aside, this was great to watch. what a different time! about-face, continue your old-time nostalgia. "it's not like it used to be," etc.

Featuring that awful work of "art" outside the JFK building.

D'oh! Guess low budget means no spell checking.
