I had already explained My thoughts about TruTV especially MTV.. Those scenes were pretty good. Sasha had a unique style & character. He was different than guys like Van Damme & Norris but he was as legit as them. Like that gif you posted, that there shows you how different his personality is. It's really a shame he faded out and apparently people stopped being interested in him :? I'm not part of that list, I don't get tired of greats like others do. I'll put together some sort of action hero/fighter/martial artists collage in your Movie Trailer Topic sometime soon cause like I said, I know these guys like I know wrestlers :)

I know he had a domestic violence incident that led to him being written off the show after season 5 (he was just a cousin who lived in a van in the family's driveway, so it wasn't hard). Apparently, he was protecting his kids from his ex-wife who had drug issues. Allegedly, but I don't think that came out until years later and he was given custody of his kids, so it must've been somewhat an accurate account. But i think he was shunned a bit after the incident. Not sure what he's been up to since. Interestingly enough, the show needed to replace his colorful character so in season 6 Bronson Pinchot debuted as Carol's (Suzanne Somers) hair dresser business partner, Jean-Luc.

Yeah, all of that is such a shame and thanks for the trivia about his replacement ;)

That Perfect Strangers was good, he's gotta cancel his Magazine Subscription to Muppet Babies :lol: You can clearly tell what time this is ;)

Earl Bowen is on tons of sitcoms in small roles like that. Never really knew his name, but he's one of those actors you immediately recognize.

Yes he is, that's how I knew he was from the Terminator films but I didn't know about his sitcom stuff however. That Family Matters was pretty good. My Grandma MiMi really liked the dad when he was in the first Die Hard and his little cameo in Ghostbusters. My Grandpa PoPo was a big sleepwalker when he was young, thank goodness he grew out of it :shock:

So it's Father's Day and here's three clips of scenes that has always stayed with Me.

When Vader reveals he's Luke's Father in 1980's The Empire Strikes Back, I look at it as a great shock at first because the majority of people didn't know it when it first happen. Lucas was brilliant. If people knew Russian then it would't have been a surprise as Darth Vader actually means "Dark Father"! Now I look at this in a personal different way as well a lot because of My own Father. It's really a shame it had to be the way it was because if somehow We could have made up I would have welcomed him and we could have done so much together as Father & Son :(



Then there's this scene in 1990's TMNT when Splinter says "All Fathers Care About their Sons" and I'm like yeah right :roll: :batsmh: :wwsmh: :smsmh:



Now, when I was sick in the hospital in 1994 (You already know some of the story) when I watched Kindergarten Cop over and over again because that was the only movie that could fit My frame of mind at the time because I was really changing, I got super close to My Grandpa and I'd say to him that he really reminds Me of Arnold because of how his kind personality is, he's big & muscular like him and his hands are like his and he was extremely strong. He would sooth Me by rubbing My head when I was in pain. He was the Father I never had :( So here's a clip that I can say My Grandpa PoPo was like, he was so much wonderfully like this :)

Good clips. I haven't seen Kindergarten Cop in ages so I forgot about that scene.
