We are going to loosely apologize on this one. Nobody here at notinhalloffame.com ever saw the show, Hang Time and when we tried to watch it we never got past a minute. However, this program lasted six seasons on the NBC Saturday morning schedule….so somebody watched this dreck.
Okay, with one minute of viewing and only internet research, here is what we do know. Beyond the title character (who we are nominating here) the show revolved countless actors, of which we have only heard of one (Anthony Anderson), had multiple NBA guest stars and had former two time NBA All Star, Reggie Theus as the Head Coach before he was replaced by Dick Butkus. Dick Butkus?????
We can’t tell you if the basketball looked real, or if the show even showed any hoops at all, but we can tell you that one episode had special guest stars Kobe Bryant and Dustin Diamond: AKA: Screech from Saved by the Bell. Screech meets the Black Mamba? We’ll pass.
The Bullet Points:
TV Show Appeared:
Hang Time (1995-2000)
Actor:
Daniela Deutscher
Position Portrayed:
We have no idea
Played for:
Deering H.S.
Why you should vote for her:
Maybe you find her hot?
Why you should not vote for her:
Like we said, we found the show unwatchable. We can’t be the only ones.

As the Notre Dame bound Quarterback star for the Dillon Panthers, while watching the premiere episode you naturally thought this was not just the star of the team, but the star of the show; as is this not the rule of all Football cinema? So when we received the curve ball to Jason Street with his career ending injury in the opening game, we knew that we did not just have a Football show, but a character driven program that just happens to have a gridiron backdrop. The question is do we reward his potential, his coaching or his wheelchair rugby playing? Or, are you like most people and did not watch this show at all?

In re-watching the pilot for the White Shadow, we had to wonder why more episodes did not focus on James Hayward. He was the focal player in the pilot, but in many other episodes, he was largely ignored. Sure, it was an ensemble cast, but Hayward emerged as the intellect of the group; and the one who exhibited the most social conscious. It may not have been the most remembered character of the show, put perhaps it could have been.

Although we hate to speak ill of the dead, the idea of any High School Quarterback picking the Glee Club over the gridiron seems ridiculous to us. Still, this show (Glee) was ridiculously popular, though were any sports fans watching this?
