This was pretty damn awesome. I love that they got Gus Van Sant. If they ever do this again, I hope they do Riptide.

Pretty cool. I think A-Team or Knight Rider would have to be next.

Jon Hamm died that night.

Nice work by Adam Scott here.

Awesome.

That's the problem with TV nowadays as well - no opening credits.

On October 1st, 1992, Jameson Parker was shot twice by his neighbor due to a dispute over dog crap.

He didn't die or anything, but I thought it was a pretty funny story. Truth is he did guest spots on TV shows and movies, but didn't get an other hit show like say Major Dad.
