Of course, this thread is not complete without the best Bill Murray cameo of all time.

That's The State's Joe Lo Truglio. Brought to you by Know Your Mid-90s Comedic Icons.

 

(Obligatory "The State" reference)

Most the guys from MTV's The State went on to other things (mostly Reno 911). Years ago I wondered what happened to Joe Lo Truglio and Ken Marino. Then Lo Truglio started showing up out of nowhere. Good to see he's getting some recognition

 

Speaking of which, this was how Bronson Pinchot got Balki in Perfect Strangers.

Ken Marino was on Veronica Mars and Party Down. I think he's written some stuff as well.
