I apologize for still going, but another misrepresentation is calling the "Guest Star" spots "appearances"

Posted by: Willroast on Aug 20, 16:46 in response to Antibody's post The former SNLers were regulars for multiple seasons and...

Established actors (and musicians, politicians, authors, etc) ASKED to be on the show and young, upcoming actors definitely saw it as a huge break to get a spot. Nearly all of the actors that I listed were NOT "Gangster #1" types in the credits, but rather name (and often recurring) characters. For the most part, it was not an accident that these actors were on Miami Vice. They knew it would open doors because, even at the time, the show was considered a launching pad, not unlike Disney and SNL were/are except more for actors than for children and comedians.

While it is obvious that I am a superfan of the show, it is not because of this that I make these statements. Miami Vice was a known commodity in it's time as an unprecidented gig for actors and actresses both new and established. In this way, I believe that Miami Vice has a lot more in common with SNL and Disney than you may think.

I've beat the horse enough now I guess. Sorry about the distraction.

This is fracked up...EURO has gone from IPO to within 5 of delist in < 3 months and < 20M shares, 24th best {nm} BONDS 20 final days Aug 14, 12:13

These kind of fund managers rock and put the rest of us to shame... :) {nm} slappydavid Aug 14, 12:18

He's giving you a standard to live up to! :P {nm} DTravel Aug 14, 13:04

Meanwhile, my challenging and super fun Miami Vice Fund sits waiting for approval even though it would kill it. C'mon man! {nm} Willroast Aug 14, 22:55

I'm just saying that if finds can be as vauge and all-encompassing as Euro and African American, certainly a Miami Vice Fund would work. {nm} Willroast Aug 14, 22:57

How is Euro vague for starbonds you have to be from mainland Europe not from UK and Ireland simples blaze223 Aug 15, 07:38

Not wanting to put words in Willroasts mouth, but I think he means vague as in unrestricted not as in difficult to understand srrichardson Aug 15, 09:27

That is what I meant srrichardson. I wasn't trying to dog those funds though, just messin around. The Vice Fund would be a bit more (cont) Willroast Aug 15, 17:02

Would the fund include movies shot and or set in MIA? The problem is if you do not have a lot of movies opening, not much real motion, Buy BONDS 21 Aug 15, 21:57

If it's been 2 weeks then I doubt it will happen - you probably need to tweak your criteria srrichardson Aug 16, 00:52

That's a real shame. I think I nailed the first 2, but I suspect it may not have interested him. Too bad in my opinion because I think Willroast Aug 16, 19:09
