I watched Erik Estrada as a cop on CHiPs back in the day. But c’mon, him as a real cop in Muncie, Indiana? I’m not too sure about that. Plus the guy is so much older now. Have any of you heard of Armed and Famous where it follows Erik and a bunch of other celebs through the training process. What do you think of Erik as a real cop busting real criminals? Check it out if you haven’t and let me know what you think . This is crazy…. http://one.revver.com/watch/132318

Moved - Not a web show. Not a pilot for anything Revision3 is doing.
Might fit general discussion. If anyone is interested in the show (rather than just a clip), see the shows website (http://www.cbs.com/primetime/armed_and_famous/).

This seems like a lame attempt at viral marketing.

Hmm, I would deem it spam at this point.

IF it is viral marketing, it is pretty poor.
1. The show sucks, and has pretty much been slammed (http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,21048122-13762,00.html) by critics.
2. Linking to revver.com for the video clip ... is that just a "clever" way to hide the source of the video clip? Which happens to be the CBS website and their innertube service? (I guess it gets you past the ads on that page).
At this point, since there was no followup post by Gagudju, I am going to lock this thread as spam.
==[Edit]======
3. I was going to give Gagudju the benefit of the doubt ... but decided to run a seach over the term I watched Erik Estrada as a cop on CHiPs (http://www.google.com/search?q=%22I+watched+Erik+Estrada+as+a+cop+on+CHi Ps%22&hl=en&lr=&safe=off&filter=0). BAM! Looks like we got ourselves a spammer. Sometimes it takes a day or two for this sort of stuff to hit the search engines.
