Yeah, it seems like eons ago, but I only recently learned that the Chug-A-Lug I.D. Checker in Season 2 Episode 1 [“The New Girl (Part 1)” from 11/19/1980] was played by actor Reb Brown, who just the previous year had starred in TWO made-for-TV Captain America movies. In the title role of Steve Rogers/Captain America! The first was called simply Captain America, and was broadcast by CBS on January 19, 1979. The second film called Captain America II: Death Too Soon was broadcast ten months later on November 23 & 24, 1979 in two 1-hour installments. An interesting trivia bit from IMDb: “According to Red Brown at Comic-Con, the studios were planning two crossover movies. Captain America (Reb Brown) and Spider-Man (Nicholas Hammond) from The Amazing Spider-Man (1977). The second was Captain America (Brown) and Lou Ferrigno/Bill Bixby from The Incredible Hulk (1978). Unfortunately, neither of these ever materialized.”
Why, it was the MCU that never was!
And now, I discover he has collided with the FOLCU! YAY!
