Happened to zap into a re-run of Friends on Dutch television and there was a Ms.Pac starring in this episode :)

Probably old news but I liked it :)

Anyway, for those who never saw it:

I always wondered where they got a Ms Pac that saved hi score initials.  :P
Same with George Costanza and his Frogger machine.

That looked like a machine that had been touched up around the area of paint that is always missing due to hands resting on the sides, but it also had black greasy looking spots in the same places... strange.


Its neat seeing these types of games work their way into TV series. I remember that That 70s Show had a really nice looking Space Invaders and a Travel Time pin is many scenes in the local hang out.

That is terrible. Terrible acting, stupid characters, silly story. I really wonder at these pseudo-retro themes in TV shows recently.
