Same here. It's awesome to me that he even has a career because I remember him as Doogie Howser and the fact that he's been able to transcend that is just wow. :)
I watched Doogie Howser as well and I always remembered it as this incredibly cheesy show. Then my sister got me season 1 as a bit of a joke and it's actually a lot better than I remembered. Sure, it was the 80's/90's but it's definitely not as cheesy as I thought it was.
Also - that Gif is made of WIN.
apparently y, as he's actually on the damn mag
