incredibly two people nearly instantaneously came up with this realization about a new character on a geeky show i watch. dont know which is sadder, them realizing it or me mentioning it. anyone that considers spies like us a classic is definitely lamer than me. they win.
"Emmett Millbarge?" Hmmm...
I thought the name sounded familiar until I realized it was a mash-up of the two main characters from the 80's classic "Spies Like Us" with Donna Dixon and Vanessa Angel. Ah, memories... Oh yeah, Dan Aykroyd and Chevy Chase were in it too. (Yes kids, Chevy Chase used to appear in classics.) Chase was Emmett Fitz-Hume and Aykroyd was Austin Millbarge, the lead characters, but it was hard for a 19 year old to notice them when either of those women were on screen.
