Oh. My. Goodness.
Okay so this blog post goes out to a very select group of readers who back in the day (or more recently) enjoyed the series, “Alias” starring Jennifer Garner, Ron Rifkin, Victor Garber and… Kevin Weisman.
If you don’t know who I am talking about when I mention Kevin Weisman, think Marshall Flinkman. He was the nerdy tech guy who was completely ridiculous and constantly made a fool of himself. He was a true believer in SD-6, the covert group trying to solve Rambaldi’s mysteries to the key to the universe… but I digress.
If you still have no idea who I am talking about, check out this YouTube clip of Marshall:
These kind of ridiculous tech briefs are an ongoing gag throughout the show. He is definitely one of my favorite characters.
Now, I had my mind blown when I started watching the pilot of Marvel’s “Runaways” on Hulu, when who showed up? None other than Kevin Weisman, reprising a very similar role as a nerdy dad with all kinds of helpful information to dole out to his teenage daughters.
I know most of you could care less and think I am crazy, so thanks for indulging me… carry on.
P.S. If anyone has any idea what I am talking about and wants to geek out with me, leave a comment below.
