Episode 1
first airdate: September 19, 1992

Tuc guested on the first episode and first skit of this short-lived sketch comedy series from Fox. The Edge also starred a pre-Friends Jennifer Aniston. The first skit was a faux-commercial for the Rebuk "Do Me" Pump. Tuc plays a chick-magnet hunk, standing outside the gym Jennifer works out at. When Jennifer sees the competition, she pumps her Rebuk tennis shoes, which magically transform into sexy black spiked "Do Me" pumps. Tuc is obviously impressed and bypasses all the rest of ladies for Jennifer.

Erika Eleniak as Shauni
Colleen Morris as Kim
Tuc Watkins as Gary

Tuc played Gary, the squeaky clean, med-student fiance of Shauni's sister, Kim (Colleen Moore). And, of course, it would be Eddie who saves Kim from drowning in the family pool at the end of the episode, not Gary.




SIBS

"The In Crowd"

"The Prettiest Week Of My Life"
first airdate: September 30, 1990

Chris Elliott as Chris/Sparkles
Tuc Watkins as Sapphire

Tuc guest-starred on this silly sitcom as "Sapphire"--a pompous male model who holds nothing but contempt for series star/model-wannabe, Chris Elliott (who takes on the name "Sparkles" as a challenge to "Sapphire"). Tuc can be seen in two hilarious scenes: a lengthy classrom collision at the Handsome Boy Modeling School, and a runway fashion show that culminates in a catfight between Sapphire and Sparkles.

Tuc says, "I had three lines, to Kirk Cameron and Alan Thicke. 'Towels. Here. Yeah.' I called everybody: 'I am the tall guy in the gym, look for me!' The show airs two hours earlier in Kansas City, so my mom called and said, 'We think we saw you...' I watched it two hours later and they cut my part out."
