HUNTER ONLINE
Strange Coincidences



This is a section where I've noted some scenes in other movies or television shows that can either remind you of Hunter and a couple of times where Hunter is even mentioned.


IRRECONCILABLE DIFFERENCES:
In a scene where Ryan O'Neal & Shelly Long are supervising a shooting of their new movie, the director requests that Sharon Stone's character appear nude in an upcoming scene. Fearing how she may react to the request, Ryan O'Neal tactfully walks up to her and whispers the request in her ear. She shrugs, drops her towel and Ryan turns around and says "Works for me"!

MARRIED WITH CHILDREN:
In an episode where Al Bundy hears one of his favorite old songs on the radio and is trying to remember the name of it, Peg starts teasing him. He turns around and says "Now listen, Peg. This is a burning question in my mind and I will not be distracted by a woman who thinks the television show 'HUNTER' is engrossing"!

FAMILY TIES:
In an emotional 3-part episode entitled "Heartstrings", Steven Keaton has a massive heart attack and needs a quadruple bypass. In the scene before he has the heart attack, the entire family is in the kitchen and he starts to complain of chest pains. Andrew, the youngest son, says "Think of Micky Mouse". Steven says "No, that didn't help". Andrew comes back with "Works for me".

THE SIMPSONS:
Homer is torn between spending an extra $100.00 on either a new air cinditioner or a new saxaphone for Lisa. When he stands in front of the display window of the music store, he says "Oh God, what should I do"? The salesman then places a sign in the window saying something to the effect of what a good thing it would be to buy an instrument for a young child. Homer reads it, says "Ah, it works for me.", and walks into the store to buy the sax.

NIGHT COURT:
The always comical Judge Stone is presiding a case where a group of nuns are suing a priest. They claimed the priest stole a portable color TV they had packed to take with them on a road trip. When Judge Stone asks the priest why he took the TV, he replies with "They insist on watching Hunter"! Then, the one nun interjects with "We just like Fred Dryer. He makes Charlton Heston look like a wuss"!

ARCHIE BUNKER'S PLACE:
Stephanie brings her calculator to the restaurant for Archie to use until his is repaired. Archie looks at it and says "You want me to use a Mickey Mouse calculator"? Stephanie comes back with "Works for me"!
