He played Mermaidman on Spongebob Squarepants. Maybe that's more in your age group?

So many good films and shows he played in.

If someone here is actually younger than lilgrafx (who is too young already), I'm going to spit out the prune juice I'm drinking. (http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcds.png)

Back on topic:

Ernest Borgnine and Ricardo Montalbán are no more. (http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcgsad.png)

Post by: NightWolve on July 26, 2012, 08:01:46 PM: Ah, the Airwolf guy, I remember 'im! I caught the show every now and then, wasn't crazy about it, but I liked it well enough. RIP! As for Ricardo Montalbán, my Fantasy Island watching days as a kid and the little dwarf ("The plane, the plane!") led to buying the Season One DVD set some time back. Months later I finally watched the whole thing to refresh myself on the series. To my surprise, it somewhat holds up in quality today. It's 80's esque, but I liked it! It was a great show from that era!

Post by: esteban on July 27, 2012, 12:07:12 AM: I have not seen an episode of Airwolf or Fantasy Island since I was a kid (mid 80's)...

I gotta watch some episodes with my daughter (8 years) to see if she'll enjoy them. I loved them when I was 8!

Netflix, don't fail me with your back-catalog of old TV shows....
