We're watching MASH.

We pause, looking at a patient, and simultaneously: "Is that XANDER BERKELEY?"

Turns out: Yup. That patient, in 1981, is a very young That Guy Who Is Awesome In Everything, in his third role ever.

I recently had a similar experience with Terminator II, which I rarely rewatch.

Yup. And then "Larry" Fishburne in S10.

Leaving aside, y'know, that there's apparently only three asian actors in the 1970s and they get re-used regularly on MASH, and it's really weird to see Master Po and the rest of the Kung Fu cast.

Hah, I remember another episode of MASH I was re-watching that had a young(er) Patrick Swayze, back when he was (I think) still alive and a little closer to still being popular.

That threw me a bit, too.

There's an episode of Kung Fu with a pre-Star Wars Harrison Ford.

Streets of Fire. It has a young Willem DaFoe. Young. Fifth role. Weirds me out every time.

Wait, you only *think* he was still alive in that role?

It is often hard to tell with Patrick Swayze.

I had to google the guy. Never heard of him.

(I return now to my porch to rock, whittle and yell at the darned kids on my lawn.)

He's awesome. And he's been in everything. Torrent yourself "The Booth At The End" and watch it, then buy it.

That's the one. The Booth At The End is *brilliant*.
