Nice tits, Mike.

He certainly captured Kate Mulgrew's read-through-the-line-as-fast-as-possible-so-I-can-take-a-smoke-br eak style of delivery.

If only Star Trek really had CCR references.

Also, from Mike Nelson Himself:
"I was finally able to fulfill my lifelong desire to dress up as Kate Mulgrew (aka Mrs. Columbo). It is a small comfort to me that no matter how talented the make-up artist, how good the costume, how expert the lighting, I don't look anymore like a woman than Fred Gwynn does, without make-up."

And from Paul Chaplin:
"And the Mike-as-Captain-Janeway segment...oh, dear. I was unable to look at Mike in that costume (actually, I was never allowed to look at him; he wouldn't permit it.). Yet I couldn't not look at him. Mike is a very masculine man sort of guy person, and it was very unsettling to observe him out of character, yet still in costume. I can vividly recall him standing around the craft services table on shoot day, wig and boobs on his very mannish body, with its mannish walk and gestures, discussing baseball with Kevin, Paul and Jeff Stonehouse, all with a disconcerting nonchalance. It was a severe bout of cognitive dissonance."

Thank god I barely get this joke. I'm a nerd and all, obviously, but even I'm above Star Trek.

Mike's grasp on reality was always a little less tenuous than Joel's

Personally, I think there's a strong resemblance.
