Last Week Tonight still isn't back on the air — if you don't have Valentine's Day plans, you can spend the evening with John Oliver's season opener — but Oliver wants you to remember that he exists, is on TV, and has a crack graphics department at HBO. So, for the second time, Oliver trotted out the graphics that didn't make it on air in the previous season. Like from the chicken episode, he didn't have enough time to show photos of chickens sporting famous '90s haircuts — Oliver named them Hennifer Aniston and Heather Flockyear — and well, Larry Bird. Oliver saved the best graphic for second-to-last, and you can watch them all in the short video below. Peter Weber
