Blinky | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 08:00 am     I just read on Sheryl Braxton's site that Gerry's acting creditionals included Tootsie, Witness, General Hospital and over 25 commericals. Gerry's daughter was the one giving the imfo in the interview. Is this old news? |
Nicolae216 | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 08:24 am     LOL are you serious? i didn't know that. what's his last name? |
Duncan | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 08:27 am     I checked imdb.com and couldn't find a Gerry Lancaster anywhere. I tried Gerald as well. I would imagine he was just an extra. |
Nutsy | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 08:29 am     Of course he's an extra ... Mike and Will are the stars, baby! giggle |
Hosewater | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 08:48 am     He was also in an episode of Falcon Crest on TV. Don't know what he played. There are people in Hollywood who have life-long careers, and money-making ones at that, being extras. |
Inkydinkyspider | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 09:02 am     I love Gerry...and if sponsers were smart they would give him his own soap commercial! He would be great and would appear to be honest in what he said. |

Espen | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 09:09 am     Apparently he even had one line of dialog in Witness.. Supposedly he had a longer scene, but it had to be cut, but the director liked his performance enough to keep his one line in, and thus let him get his name in the credits.. (this per Gerry on the live feeds).. However, I too am surprised his name in that case was not in IMDB for that movie.. hmm.. There are probably just limits to how many extras IMDB includes for a given film... |
Amac | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 09:50 am     I have both Witness and Tootsie on DVD. I already knew about Gerry's appearance in Witness and think I have spotted him in it (non-speaking part and he is unlisted in the film's credits as non-speaking actors normally are). Will have to watch Tootsie this weekend and try to spot him. |
Amac | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 09:52 am     The thing is that Tootsie was released in 1982 and Witness in 1985, so to spot Gerry one has to imagine what he looked like 20 and 17 years ago respectively, lol |
Ziggystardust | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 09:56 am     I think he probably looked something like Roddy does now...haha |
Hosewater | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 10:24 am     Is this him? |
Hosewater | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 10:29 am     Or this? |
Blinky | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 10:35 am     The article mentioned two of his commercials-Taco Bell & Dimetapp ... I would love to see them |
Sia | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 12:57 pm     It would be great if someone could post a photo of Gerry in this thread if you can capture a pic of him in one of the old flicks mentioned above. I'm curious to see what he looked like so many years ago. Thanks in advance. |
Poser | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 01:06 pm     I saw an episode of Hollywood Showdown the other day with Gerald. He didn't find the box office card. I think I remember him from The Chair, but I'm not sure. |
Blinky | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 01:20 pm     LOL hose ... those were great |
Bob2112 | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 02:03 pm     Very nice, Mr. Water. Very nice.  |
Pixie | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 02:25 pm     LMAO Mr. Water |
