Shows you only watched because wrestlers guest starred

[wildojinx]

Are there any tv shows you usually didnt watch, but watched a specific episode just because that episode had a wrestler as a guest star? The only episodes of the almost forgotten 90s sitcom Suddenly Susan that I ever saw had Hulk Hogan on them (I believe he was running for mayor in these two episodes, and actually won).

I once sat through an entire episode of Who's the Boss? because TV Guide listed the episode as having one of the characters dating some troublemaker named Jake the Snake.

By the time Jake the Snake finally appeared in the episode, about two minutes before it ended, I was pissed.

[The Thread Barbi]

Sabrina the teenage witch because Kevin Nash was in it

[MentalMidget]

18 Wheels of Justice.

[chazraps]

G vs E

Pacific Blue

[MentalMidget]

G v E was another I was going to say. Think I still have the Mankind episode on VHS.

Hell, there was a PPV last year (I think) that I only watched because Bret Hart was in Natalya's corner!

But more in the spirit of the OP, I watched an episode of VIP (the short lived Pamela Anderson show) because Steve Austin made an appearance. From memory, he appeared like two minutes in and wasn't seen again, but I had to watch the whole episode just in case.

I also watched the film Firepower because The Ultimate Warrior played the lead role.

[Clash, Never a Meter Maid]

I only gave the Fred specials the time of day because of the John Cena cameos. Believe it or not, he couldn't salvage them for me.

[Dub H]

Big Time Rush because Chris Master's appered on it.

And not the ONLY reason,but the final reason i watched MacGrubber was the wrestler's cameo

I think I remember that episode. Wasn't it not really Jake The Snake Roberts, just some guy named Jake The Snake?

I remember watching an episode of The Drew Carey Show because Triple H appeared on it. However, later on I watched some reruns of other episodes of that show and found it hilarious, enough that I wanted to watch more of it.

As a young Hulkamaniac, I felt obligated to watch Thunder in Paradise. I did not enjoy it.

[Vice honcho room temperature]

I wouldn't say I watched it for RVD before he went to the WWE but the only episode of City Guys I ever watched was the wrestling one with RVD in it. I would say its more the pro wrestling story that got me to watch.

[Slingshot Suplay]

I recently watched that star trek voyager episode with the Rock.

[DJ Maniak]

I was probably one of the only 3 people that watched Shasta McNasty voluntarily. The fact that Big Show and Brian Christopher had cameos on it didn't matter to me.

[Lardlad]

Sabrina The Teenage Witch because Billy Gunn was on it.

[wildojinx]

The episodes of Nash Bridges with Steve Austin also come to mind.

[CMPunkyBrewster]

"Boy Meets World" for the Vader episodes.

"Nash Bridges" for the Steve Austin episodes (I thought his character was awesome).

Not particularly short lived it ran for like 4 seasons.
