Does anyone else remember the HBO series, "Dream On" with Brian Benben?

That was fucking funny! That Martin Tupper was a good character.

Groundbreaking.

1. the actress who played his ex-wife

Wendie Malick

I think that was the first thing I saw her in

2. I do, I do, I do

I've got the seasons 1 and 2 on DVD. However, I started watching during the later seasons when it was on HBO. The one testicle British boss was a riot and the gratuitous sex scenes were "titillating".

3. "Titillating" all right.

Catherine Bell was one of Marty's flings,I don't know if any others went on to fame.

4. A friend of mine was the editor on that one!

(nothing like living in LA - you see a show because you know someone who worked on it)

5. That, and...

"The Larry Sanders Show" made HBO worth the price in those days.

Who was that clown who got the BJ?

And Tupper and his friend getting high?


Too many others to mention..

Then they moved it to network and it was shot to hell. No more Jewish mothers offering "the best blowjob you ever had" to get a book published...

(And, yes, I still get wood at the thought of Wendie Malick...)

6. I remember it. I never had HBO, but I saw it occasionally

at my parents' house.

7. Holy Shit!

I just did a little research and discovered that Brian Benben is married to Madeleine Stowe, they have two kids, and spend most of their time on a ranch in Texas.

Madeleine Stowe? He's not worthy.

8. I sure do!

I loved that show. The way they intercut the old TV shows to comment on the action was amazing.

9. OMG

I had forgotten about that. It was pure genius and hysterical!

10. I worked on the final show of this series...

I used to work for a company that supplied airplane sets and mock-ups for the movie industry. We put together a wide-body jet for the final episode, and Martin Tupper had sex with a stewardess in the lavatory.

A great cast and a great crew...very fun to work with.
