Commentary

The "Now vs. Then" top ten lists are a series of 10 top ten lists focused on the unusual situation we were in during the early stages of the "coronavirus crisis." The concept behind the lists is to compare and contrast coronavirus times with pre-pandemic times (generally dating back to the 70s to 90s).

This series of funny top ten lists was conceived during May 2020, as we all struggled to cope with how our lives had been changed by the pandemic. The Now vs. Then series is also included on the master list of top ten lists as Lists 26 to 35.

As an example of how these lists compare coronavirus times to pre-pandemic times, note that Tiger King was released on Netflix during the midst of the crisis, and some of the characters are reminiscent of characters from "Beavis and Butthead," an animated series that ran on MTV from 1993 to 1997. So a "Now vs. Then" list might show "Joe Exotic" in the "Now" column, and "Beavis and Butthead" in the "Then" column. Then, if that seems cute or funny, you laugh! Get it?

Please note the 10th list is currently under review. We don't currently have line of sight as to when it may be published (if ever). Sorry!

The lists are shown here in reverse order, so start at the bottom to read them in the order they were conceived.
