themaninblack 2,112 Posted February 28, 2014 Yeah, MacGyver was a great show. I was going to make a gag about Quantum Leap but you kind of beat me to it... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

charon 4,942 Posted February 28, 2014 That was Dean Stockwell in Quantum Leap, not Harry Dean Stanton. ^^^ David Bowie and that Scots lass from Game of Thrones (Ygritte?) had a child? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JR976evil 902 Posted February 28, 2014 He seems to be still working regularly, think he may be around for a while. During the 80s and early 90s he seemed to turn up in every single American Indie film, great actor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jake Bauer Posted February 28, 2014 Hard to believe Tubbs is 88. He looked like he could have passed for his 30s on Miami Vice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
