Useless piece of trivia - Wayne's World was on last week, happened to flick into it during the Bohemian Rhapsody bit, one of their mates headbanging in the back seat looked familiar - eventually worked out he's the reporter from Generation Kill.

Good series, only 7 episodes, but well worth a look.

spatchco

He was also the war nut big brother in Weird Science the TV show.
And he is in Oz.

as usual missed the first few so does anyone know if it is coming out on dvd??
also recognised reporter guy as tobias beacher from Oz, another classic series from hbo.

Godfather popped up in Fringe last week (hadn't recognised him before then).


Yeah, it's a bit scary if decision making really is that bad.

Is there just one series of generation x. Play.com has one box set, is that all there is set to be?

It's based on the reporters book, on events that happened while he was with the marines. So no more series.
